🌑 The Moon base in Rocket Crew: starting from zero on another planet
When you land on the Moon you start a new base. It is like starting over, but with many advantages: the coins, the collectibles and your experience are the same.
You start from zero
- Nothing is built: no pad, no hangar, no tanks, not one part of the rocket. Only the workers who travelled are there.
- The first task is to raise the pad. It is compulsory and free, even if you have no coins; until it is done nothing else can be built and no part can be assembled.
- The rocket parts are the same and are upgraded from level 0. The cabin they arrived in stays on the ground as decoration, in the colours of your rocket.
- The astronauts wear space suits and, in the Moon’s gravity, hop a little as they walk.
What changes and what does not
| Thing | On the Moon |
|---|---|
| Coins | The same: one wallet for all bases |
| Prices of parts and buildings | 2.5 times (+150 %), 40 % of it in helium-3; the pad (free the first time) and the extractor are paid in coins only |
| Time of the works | The same as on the Earth |
| Colours, ecosystems, icons and models | Work on any base |
| Workers’ production | Does not depend on the planet: it is collected together, from all of them |
| Works, posts and harvests | Each base has its own |
| Landscape | Its own: grey dust, rocks, craters, black sky and strong sun, no clouds or times of day |
Levels add up
The rocket of each base reaches 25 levels: the Earth gives 1 to 25 and the Moon gives 26 to 50. Your player level, the one in the ranking and the one of your workers, is 25 for each completed planet plus the levels of the rocket you are on now. The Earth’s levels are kept forever, even if you later build another rocket there to take three more workers.
What others see
Your visitors do not choose a planet: they see the base of the last planet reached, or the scenes of the trip while one is flying. Your public page shows how far you have got. You can move between your bases from the route. Reaching the Moon gives the Lunar pioneer trophy (trophies).
💡 Save up before the trip: building the Moon base costs 2.5 times as much, and the first thing will be the pad. Workers you invite afterwards start on the Earth, not on the Moon (workers and invitations).
