About this game
Moon Camp Builders is a free base-building puzzle game for kids ages 9-12. On a grid of landing pads your child places three kinds of modules - solar panels, oxygen tanks and habitat domes - to build a camp that can safely house a growing lunar crew.
Every module changes the balance: solar panels add power, oxygen tanks make air but use power, and habitats house crew while consuming both. The camp is done when the whole crew fits and air and energy stay at zero or above. Each new camp asks for a bigger crew on a bigger grid.
It runs entirely in the browser on tablets, phones and computers - no ads, no accounts, no chat. Great for kids who like building games, resource budgets and small systems where every single choice has a trade-off.
How to play
- Pick a module from the toolbar: solar panel, oxygen tank or habitat.
- Tap an empty pad to place it; tap a built pad to clear it again.
- Watch the counters: habitats add crew but use air and power.
- Balance the camp so air and energy never drop below zero.
- House the full crew to finish, then take on a bigger camp.
