The Sandbox mode allows you to play as any of the three space agencies and removes all competition restrictions.Play the race to the Moon campaign mode against other players using Slitherine’s PBEM system.Manage all aspects of your space agencies from their inception in the 1950's through to the manned lunar landing missions.Three different campaign modes: play as NASA or the Soviet space agency in order to be the first on the Moon or play as the Global Space Agency (GSA) and deal with the short-term objectives issued by politicians.The number of options available ensure every game will be different and there is huge replay value.

In campaign mode, you will be able to play as the Director of either NASA or the Soviet Space Agency in order to beat the other side to be the first on the Moon. The game features both a campaign and a sandbox mode.
