The story

Manchester’s first moonbase has a small problem: the station robot insists everything is fine. Split your crew across two connected rooms and work out what it isn’t telling you.

Moonbase Mersey is built for big groups of up to ten, with two linked rooms and walkie-talkies to keep everyone talking.

Good for birthdays and work dos. Mild suspense and blinking lights, no scares.
