Who it's for

Groups who like a quick, slightly cheeky spatial battle and don't mind directly messing with each other's plans.

Not for you if…

Vibe's take

Light and playful with a spatial-puzzle edge β€” every placement blocks a rival while opening new colony space for you.

About this game

Monsters on the Moon sends four rival monsters racing to claim the moon's crystal deposits. You place monster cards to cover rivals' heads and grow your own colony, then throw in moon walls and shuttles to seal off territory. Whoever locks down the most ground β€” and the crystals to get home β€” wins.
