It doesn't get much simpler than this: land the Lunar Module on the landing pad (but not too fast!) and all is well. But then it does get a little bit harder: moving platforms, meteor showers, and even black holes can start to make it get a little crazier. Eighteen levels should give you half an hour of entertainment. It's 8-bit style arcade action, suitable for anyone who remembers what a video arcade was like, and likes the color green.

Moon Lander Pro, No Ads Welcome to Moon Lander, this is a lunar landing style game where you have to safely land the lunar module on the moon. Sounds easy, however the moon is very craggy and the lunar capsule is basically made of tinfoil so its very fragile, so you'll need to be very careful. Control are easy, tilt left or right for side thrusters. Tilt back for main thrusters. You must land squarely on a landing pad, green is the easiest, orange middle and red is the most difficult landing pad but will reward with the most points. Beware, if you land on the moon surface and not a pad then the lunar lander will sink and explode! There are 3 levels of difficulty, on easy you have more fuel and the lander is a little more robust. On difficult, the lander is very fragile with not much fuel on board, however you'll get a stack of points if you land successfully. The screen will scroll left and right to reveal upto 6 landing pads, although on the more difficult levels you may find some are out of action and you'll need to travel further to find a safe landing place. Score :- 0 You crashed. +2000 Well done you landed. They say any landing you can walk away from was a good landing. Not true here, the lander is too damaged to take off again and there's nowhere to walk to! +4000 Good Job, Safe landing and will you be able to lift off again. +5000 Qualified Pilot, nice job. +7000 Amazing, sign up for the next Mars mission! 10,000+ Space Shuttle Commander, expert! The following will cause a crash :- 1. Not landing on a pad. 2. Landing too fast. 3. Doing too much damage on moon rocks. 4. Not landing level, the lander cannot survive on severe angles.
