Buzz Aldrin’s Space Program Manager Game DESCRIPTION

Buzz Aldrin’s Space Program Manager (SPM) Road to the Moon is the ultimate game of space exploration.

It is the mid 1950s and the race for dominance between the US and the Soviet Union is about to move into a new dimension: space. Take charge of the US or Soviet space agencies – your duty is be the first to the moon. Carefully manage your budget by opening programs, spending R&D funds on improving the hardware, recruiting personnel and launching space missions in this realistic turn based strategy game.

Road to the Moon features the race to the Moon, the historical event that started in the early 1960s and that ended in July 1969, after the successful completion of the Apollo 11 mission.

The game features both a campaign and a sandbox mode. In campaign mode, you will be able to play as the Director of either NASA or the Soviet Space Agency in order to beat the other side to be the first on the Moon. You can also lead the Global Space Agency (GSA), a fictional space agency that combines programs from all the major space agencies in the world. In the GSA campaign, you will need to address the requests and short-term goals issued by government, and is geared towards those players who prefer a game experience focused on exploration instead of competition. Alternatively, all three space agencies feature a Sandbox mode, which provides a more open-ended experience and allows you to try out different approaches without any political pressure.

You will be able to develop dozens of programs. Some examples include the X-15 and the PKA space planes, the Sputnik satellite, the Mercury, Voskhod, Apollo and Soyuz manned spacecraft and the Mars Viking probe.

• Three different campaign modes: play as NASA or the Soviet space agency in order to be the first to the Moon or play as the Global Space Agency (GSA) and deal with the short-term objectives issued by politicians.
• Manage all aspects of your space agencies from their inception in the 1950’s through to the manned lunar landing missions
• Play the race to the Moon campaign mode against other players using Slitherine’s cross platform PBEM system.
• The Sandbox mode allows you to play as any of the three space agencies and removes all competition restrictions.
• Create space programs and launch missions inspired by real programs such as the X-15 Space plane, the Sputnik satellite, the Gemini, Vostok and Apollo manned spacecraft and a lot more!
• Research and develop dozens of mission components from several program categories.
• Develop your facility with advanced structures and upgrades including the Vehicle Assembly Building and the Mission Control Centre.
• Recruit and train astronaut candidates and assign them to missions.
• Assemble an elite team of Scientists, Engineers, Technicians (SET), Flight Controllers and Flight Crews for the best chance of success.”
• Manage your agency’s budget.
• Mission components have an associated reliability factor and can cause catastrophic failures.
• Vast amounts of historical research ensure that the game’s huge database features missions that launched and many more that never left the drawing board!
• A vast array of components built in 3D and rendered out in exquisite detail allow you to follow the progress of your missions via animated sequences.

Designed in consultation with Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11 Lunar Module Pilot and the second human being to set foot on the Moon.

In Empire TV Tycoon you manage a television channel and take on the fight for audiences while leading your business to fame and fortune. You will choose the content of your channel, select advertisers, hire staff and actors, manage your own show productions, and much more! The game was inspired by games like Mad TV, Mud TV and other movie management games, with a modern approach on how to produce custom content like movies or TV shows. Yet you better not be tempted to use illegal content! Just like in real life, pirated movies may be cheaper, but the risk of using them is high and police forces are always on the alert. Each audience group has their likes and dislikes. Make them happy and your fame will grow, make the wrong choices and your channel will never be talked about again. While you work your way through the markets, your advertisers will increase their demand and possibly request the impossible – it is up to you to fulfill their requests.

In order to win the Hearts and Minds of the local population you will need to search for and destroy the Vietcong (VC) insurgents, who infiltrate from the Ho Chi Minh trail and destabilize the province by intimidating the locals, laying mines and ambushing your forces.

This well trained, conventional army have much wider ambitions than the VC, they want to take total control of the valley, a stepping stone to unifying North Vietnam with the South under communist rule.

Game REVIEWS

IAmJustT..

I can’t get past tutorial, and sandbox mode is less like sandbox and more like game over. Please fix both tutorial and sandbox.

Taher

Good game but most extended missions are bugged and keep repeating itself

Lost

Love you guys. Thank you for keeping my mind sharp and trained. It transfers over to real life skills. I know it’s NOT slithering updating this game, that’s just the publisher. Love you Polar Motion Studios. Tip: Look into how you can create a more, faster version of this game, keep the same challenges, add more animated graphics, basically more sizzle for the visuals, and bring it over to Nintendo Switch... hot cakes that system right now! Go investigate.

Abiada

They should add space shuttles or Space stations, other than that it is a good game.

BK2005

I enjoyed playing this game, but don't expect much replay-ability after your third game.

Eriptron

If I want to interact like a PC I'll use one. Less than 2% of all app developers know how to code for AND affectively use a "touch screen" device! They all think and develop still in a PC design mentality with buttons to push to exit or touching little arrows to page through something, et cetera, etc. Use the bloody touch gestures built into iOS for crying out loud! Then this developer uses blue font on varying shades of blue background making reading unnecessarily difficult text. If you can't design in the iOS world, stay in the PC world.

wm1248

I would utilise Metal to add better, more fluid animation to all missions, not the antiquated stills used currently. Addition of fully rendered 3D models of all rockets, satellites, and spacecraft would be really educational. Maybe even 3D interior models too. Using the 3D models during mission sequences would improve the realism. The addition of customisable missions would be welcome as well.

Luckykil..

Very fun game, I like how you race against the computer. I really hope the developers think about updating this and putting in like a race to build a moon base or even Mars and beyond! Lots of update potential to expand the game and keep your customer base playing! Would even buy expansions as an In game app purchase this is so addicting and fun to play!

Wundermo..

When I was a kid my favourite game was Buzz Aldrin's race into space. This game is just as wonderful, it's a different take however it still involves those nail biting moments hoping your mission is a success. Lovely artwork, great use of animated stills. Five stars!

Simmyon

There really should be more modern missions the to attempt but first stability needs to be improved. The game is crippled by freezes, crashes and game-ending glitched buttons.

casual

For an armchair general or manager, a truly fun game in the era when turn based strategy has all but disappeared. The game requires management of funding, personnel, time, and (most challenging) risk. For a space fan or a management program nerd, a real treat. That said, I do have 2 criticisms. 1) The game could use a little more animation (the vintage space race audio is cool and all, but this is the 21st century). 2) The game simulates the challenges of many real (and proposed) space missions. The game could easily be adapted (or expanded) to include the Skylab program, Apollo-Soyuz, or the early Space Shuttle missions (and the related challenges of those programs) that fall in the timeframe of the game.

Idleastr..

Game says I completed x-15, and I hadn't. Can't get past test flight of x-15. Preflight locks up... Love Apollo program. Excited for the concept. Buzz shouldn't have put his name to it...

LarryWP

I read reviews about this locking up, but I hoped after the update it would be better. It locks up during the tutorial at the part to select the X15 project. I think I'm done buying games this expensive, too much of a gamble, even though I would rather pay once and have no IAP. I'm just tired of bugs, patches that make more bugs, then the excuses. iPad Air 2 using iOS 8.

Spaanbro..

This game is a great idea! It’s an updated version of Buzz Aldrin’s Race into Space (BARIS) from the early Windows years. I played that game for 100s and 100s of hours. Visually it is very good, but it crashes, repeatedly. I expect to find a few bugs in a $0.99 app, but not one that cost $9.99. This game will be awesome for any space fan, once they fix all of the major bugs. Please update it soon!

cdaniels..

I've had this app for three days now. This would be a five star review except the game routinely stops recognizing button presses. Buttons will flash acknowledging a press, but then nothing will happen. At that point you can't save your progress and you're forced to completely close out of the program. Now I can't even load a game because it won't recognize button presses on the load screen. I can press anywhere else and it works, but it won't allow me to load a game. At this point I'm considering this a waste of money and will not recommend this app to anyone. Refunds should be available.

akivett

I can't put this game down. Great mix of strategy and chance. Can't wait for more missions!

JPJNCs

It's a great game and I've only encountered one bug, if it is a bug. One of my engineers had a medical problem but never returned, then I noticed I could assign her to work on the rocket and when I did she came back. The game is very fun and interesting

phactory

There needs to be more educational sim games like this! The only problem I've found is the game freezes sometimes when closing programs. Save often!

UConnHus..

Great game, especially if you are 40-something like me and used to play BARIS on your 386 computer back in the early 90s. It is a true "manager" game and gets just enough into the details to satisfy. Can't wait for the ISS and Mars missions!!

WillBG

The desktop version of this game is awesome. They just released an update that is supposed to fix the bugs on the iPad Airs and Minis. I'm playing it this weekend but I feel comfortable raising my review to 4 stars until. My expectation is this is a solid 4.5 star game while the desktop is a 5. My only qualm is that the sliders on the training screen are tough to move with any precision. I would rather tap and say train this person to the number I enter. It's a minor thing. If you are older, you may find the desktop version easier to play as a mouse is very precise. I will try with a stylus and see if I it makes the iPad better. Price is better on the iPad. The other version is $19.99 on sale. Either is great. The game is fun. Try it!
