CRAFTING

A cozy colony on the real Moon. Walk NASA's actual mountains, build a home from fold-out kits, and teach one very good rover to listen.

Quest 01 · Explore

Walk the real valley

These mountains aren't invented — they're Apollo 15's landing site, rebuilt height-for-height from NASA laser altimetry. Your lander is parked where the real one was. Low gravity included.

real science: LOLA elevation data · Hadley Rille · one standing flag (ask the codex why that's generous)

Quest 02 · Build

Press V on anything

Every machine in the colony opens a real blueprint — the parts you could actually buy, the circuit that actually wires it, the code that actually runs it. Build it on the Moon, then build it on your desk.

Quest 03 · Command

Say it like you mean it

Fable the rover listens exactly. Tell her "go get rocks" and watch what that gets you. Learn to command a robot the way real mission operators do — clearly, kindly, with no room for guessing.

Open demo — the colony is still being built (like a real one would be)

Start with Fable Rover 💚 — her first errand is the heart of the game so far. Talk to her: she's learning to understand you, and you'll be learning how to be understood.
Then wake the Command Core — a live AI agent runs it, over NVIDIA's free relay. If it sounds canned, the Moon–Earth connection is bonkers right now — try again when the Moon faces Earth's western side.
Multiplayer is on the workbench — the party line is already live on this very server; visible pilots land soon. Bring a sibling when they do.
