Both transform into a myriad of asteroids propelled towards the Earth.
The player embodies the leader of a moon base designed to protect the Earth.
He develops the base with buildings but also with the Thales’ products (radar, missile throw…) in order to confront the threat.
The difficulty increases as the game goes along. It also includes videos of experts’ comments .

Les deux corps se métamorphosent en une myriade d’astéroïdes propulsés vers la Terre.
Le joueur incarne le dirigeant d’une base lunaire conçue pour protéger la Terre.
Il développe la base avec des bâtiments mais aussi tous les produits Thales (radars, lance-missiles etc…) pour faire face à la menace.
Le jeu présente un niveau de difficulté dynamique, devenant plus difficile à mesure que le joueur progresse en compétence et inclut des témoignages d'experts en vidéo.

To develop the base and to fight against the threat ( + Help guides).

To develop the base, the player needs:

An increase in resources (staff, materials…).
An increase in the capacity of storing (more and more buildings = more resources needed).
Knowledges such as the management of needs and resources.

When fighting the threats, the player needs:

To analyse and detect them (buildings assess the potential impact of threats on the Earth and make the player able to deflect or destroy them in order to avoid the tragedy).

Le développement de la base et le traitement de la menace (+ une rubrique d’aide)
Le développement de la base nécessite:

Un accroissement des ressources (humaines, matérielles)
Une augmentation de la capacité de stockage: plus on avance dans le jeu, plus la construction de bâtiments coûte cher en entretien et en ressources
Des savoir-faire tels que la gestion des besoins et des ressources

Le traitement de la menace nécessite:

Des qualités telles que l’analyse et la détection de menaces (construction de bâtiments pour évaluer le potentiel d’impact sur la Terre et dévier ou détruire pour éviter la catastrophe)
