Shackleton Base

Shackleton Base is a standalone strategy board game that turns lunar base construction into a competitive space-agency management challenge.

In the near future, players lead rival space agencies working to expand humanity’s presence inside Shackleton crater at the Moon’s South Pole. Each agency sends Engineers, Scientists, and Technicians to key areas of the board to develop infrastructure, advance research, and complete mission objectives. Three corporations sponsor each mission, each with its own agenda, giving every game a different mix of goals and strategic pressure. The result is a thoughtful Eurogame about timing, resource planning, and choosing which corporate opportunities are worth pursuing. Designed for 1–4 players ages 14+, Shackleton Base plays in about 90 minutes. Available now at Boarding School Games—Build the first moon base.
