Review:

Rocket to the moon and beyond to build and manage your own 3-D lunar colony. In Moon Tycoon you control all aspects of colony life - from building colonies and creating industries, to trading with Earth and alien races -are in your hands. An amazing and engaging 3-D strategy/sim that puts you in control of a burgeoning lunar empire!
* Great tutorial to get you started
* 30 challenging missions, plus unique 'sandbox' mode
* Over 60 3-D buildings including Spaceports, Lunar Golf, Military Bases, and more
* 16 devastating disasters to keep you on your toes: Moonquakes, Ion Storms and much more
* Manage 4 customizable industries: Mining, Manufacturing, Research, and Tourism
* Incredible 3D graphics, lighting effects and surround sound

This improbable title has all of the traditional nuts and bolts of simulation games: manage a population, economy and some sort of industry, all the while expanding and creating more of a world to manage. Fortunately, this tycoon title carries a few pleasant twists to go along with these somewhat worn themes. The idea of tourism brings in an incentive to build something besides the ordinary (living space, power and airports, er spaceports), and lends the game a bit more depth

Conclusion:

Moon Tycoon is by no means a revolutionary simulation, but has enough pleasant surprises and quirks to maintain interest. Get it if you have a love for the moon or space.
