How to play Lunar Lander
- Press Start. Your lander drifts down under gravity.
- Fire the main thruster with Up, tap, or Space; nudge sideways with Left and Right.
- Line up over the green pad and slow your descent.
- Touch down softly and nearly still to land. Each success gives a narrower pad and more points.

Tips & strategy
- Kill your sideways drift early — a fast horizontal speed wrecks a landing even on target.
- Short thruster taps save fuel; a continuous burn empties the tank fast.
- Start slowing well above the pad; braking at the last second rarely works.
- The readout shows your descent and sideways speed — keep both in the safe range.
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a safe landing?
Touching the pad with a low downward speed and almost no sideways drift. Land too fast or off the pad and you crash.
Does fuel carry over?
Yes — leftover fuel follows you to the next pad, and a low tank is topped up a little so you always have a chance.
How is my score tracked?
