"La Terra è la culla dell'umanità, ma l'umanità non può restare nella culla per sempre"
Konstantin Eduardovic Tsiolkovskij (1857-1935)

In AD LUNAM e AD LUNAM PLUS siete al comando del programma spaziale degli Stati Uniti o dell’Unione Sovietica. È la primavera del 1956. Il vostro obiettivo è di mandare una squadra del vostro paese sulla Luna e farla tornare sana e salva entro vent’anni. Dovrete costruire equipaggiamenti, veicoli e strutture, reclutare ed addestrare dei piloti, e condurre missioni via via sempre più complesse e difficili, senza trascurare di tenere d'occhio i vostri avversari.

AD LUNAM è il gioco base, solo testuale, per lo ZX Spectrum 48K, mentre AD LUNAM PLUS ne è la versione riveduta e ampliata per il 128K, con grafica e sonoro.

Potete trovare ulteriori informazioni sulla realizzazione dei due giochi nelle edizioni 2020 e 2021 dello Al's Spectrum Annual, scaricabile gratuitamente da qui.

Per coloro che vogliono "curiosare" nei giochi, sono disponibili i codici sorgente da assemblare con ZX-Basic (usate la versione citata nel manuale).

An excellent game, it basically feels like a 80ies version of Buzz Aldrin's Space Program Manager. Very unique and clever and a masterpiece of programming. It has a lasting place in my collection. Can't wait for your next projects!

Hi Athanasius, thank you so much for appreciating the collection. In fact it was the attempt to bring the Liftoff! board game to the Spectrum, looking at BARIS - which was made by the same author, by the way - as an inspiration. I am glad that it was so well received. I hope that the sources will inspire other authors to create other games of this kind, we need more of them!
