Lunar Ascendant

I would recommend this game, but only just, at its current Early Access stage. The core concept is genuinely engaging. Managing a moon colony while balancing scarce resources and competing factions is a strong foundation. If you’re willing to tolerate Early Access bugs and rough edges, you’ll likely have a decent time. Just don’t expect a fully fleshed-out experience yet. If you’ve played Suzerain, you’ll probably notice some familiar DNA here. That’s not a bad thing. However, there’s also a risk you may feel slightly let down by the execution in Lunar Ascendants, or at least for now. Where the game struggles (in my opinion): The biggest issue for me is the lack of world and character depth, especially combined with a fairly harsh story trade-off system. The narrative can feel rushed and somewhat shallow. Characters often lack contradiction or nuance, which makes some of them come across as cartoonish rather than complex. There is clear potential here, but it feels like the developers may be trying to push too much too quickly. For a game that lives and dies on world coherence, that’s a risky line to walk. Just as the player must balance energy credits and Helium-3, the developers are balancing development speed and narrative cohesion. In this genre, if that balance tips too far, the structure can start to feel like a house of cards. That said, I don’t want to end on a negative note. There is real promise here. I plan to stick with the game and see how it develops, because the foundation is strong, it just needs more time and depth. If you’re looking to manage a lunar colony while juggling limited resources and factional pressure, you’ll likely enjoy yourself, just don’t expect a “perfect solution” experience yet.

Nice idea!

Unfortunately the game is way too short and only 10 turns. Not worth the current cost of the game.

The core of the game is very good. If they fix all bugs and softlocks it will be a very good game.

Juego muy slop la verdad, mucho hype para nada al final

"Suzerain in space" they promised. It is an unfinished, incoherent, terrible mess of an excuse of a game, where the developers should feel ashamed even trying to mention Suzerain in the same context as this garbage of a creation. What is even worse, is that they released it in a sorry state, knowing it is bad, but they wanted *some* return on their money, knowing full well the quality of the game won't even hit their own terrible low standards either.

This has potential, however its a buggy mess right now. By turn 3 or 4 whenever you make a choice often you get the dialogue from different choices.

Full of bugs... its a mess
