I don't love area control games, but the area control in this is multilayered, and not fighting over points.

At the start of the game, pick three corporations randomly from the seven available. Each corporation introduces new projects, actions, and scoring opportunities, along with their specific mechanisms. The game is played over three rounds, each divided into three phases:
• Shuttle phase: Each player drafts a shuttle tile from an open display to determine which type of astronauts and resources they can use that round, as well as the turn order for the next phase.
• Action phase: Players take turns deploying their astronauts on the moon to collect resources, build structures, or fund projects. Depending on which corporations were selected, different types of resources will be available, resources that can be used in various ways for the projects or to build structures. Each project provides ongoing abilities and scoring opportunities. Each corporation provides different ways to score points, which could be during the action phase, the maintenance phase, or at game's end.
• Maintenance phase: Deployed astronauts are assigned to work on the structures (providing a bonus to the player owning them), then players collect income and pay maintenance costs. If corporations in play have end-round effects, those effects take place.
The end of the game brings a final scoring, then the player with the most points wins.

Different setup will lead to different games. Very high interaction between players. You are feeling tired after the game, but not thinking about "how does that thing/part work" but rather what should be my gameplan - you only have 18 turns for entire game. Also playtime is nice (you can assume 30 min/player in case of experienced players).
Everything's on point here. Great production, very good graphic design, lots of replayability... The gameplay and every game's feeling is where it's at. Very juicy decisions in where to place your workers, your own gameboard offers choices that vary depending on which workers you place there... Amazing game.
The solo mode is complex with many rules but simulates a real person very well. Great solo game
A great game, love it. I've got Seti too but, in my opinion, Shackleton Base is better. This game relies much less on randomness than Seti that depends on cards random draw. Maybe token could be better in fact online found a lot token upgrades.
