Moonbase Alpha


"Step into the role of an explorer in a futuristic lunar settlement... 
Your mission is to restore critical systems after a meteor strike cripples life support equipment."


Moonbase Alpha: An education guide is provided with lesson plans for this interactive game where survival depends on teamwork, use of resources and learning from mistakes. Although tagged as a game for science subjects (ages 11-15), I think the immersive nature of the challenge would also be great for inspiring some creative writing. It only takes about 20 minutes to play an episode, so why not try it out yourself to see its applications in your classroom?
