Clean the Moon! lunar base: Building & Automation

Explore the Clean the Moon! lunar base, including selling, robot and drone bays, and what gameplay footage reveals about Lunar Blocks.

What Is the Lunar Base?

The Clean the Moon! lunar base connects the game’s cleaning progression with its automation features. The official description confirms that players can build and expand their own base, unlock cleaning robots, and sell collected debris to fund better equipment.

The official Clean the Moon! Roblox page, published by Lunarlit Works, presents base development as part of the main progression loop: collect material, earn cash, improve equipment, and work toward automated cleaning.

However, the available sources do not provide a complete base map, a construction tutorial, or a confirmed base-unlock requirement. Gameplay footage shows selling facilities, crew automation bays, and a panel called LUNAR BLOCKS, but their exact relationship is not fully explained.

Finding the Selling Area and Funding Upgrades

For players working toward a Clean the Moon! lunar base, the clearest documented starting point is the selling area. In the gameplay footage, an early instruction reads “WALK ONTO THE SELL PAD.” A nearby building carries a SELL sign, and yellow ground arrows point toward the selling spot.

Players also see a “Your tank is full” warning during gameplay. The official page confirms that selling collected dust and debris earns cash, making selling an important part of funding further progression.

The footage provides several useful interface landmarks:

Landmark or interfaceWhat players see in the footage
SELL buildingA selling-area building marked with a visible sign
SELL PAD instructionAn on-screen prompt directing the player to the selling spot
Backpack displayA current-load and capacity counter
UPGRADES menuGENERAL, TOOL, and BAG tabs
BAG tabBackpack, CONVEYOR SPEED, and CONVEYOR TIME upgrades

At 4:14 in the video, the BAG tab displays a $1.00 Backpack upgrade. Its description identifies increased dust capacity as its purpose. The same screen shows CONVEYOR SPEED for $2.00 and CONVEYOR TIME for $0.25.

These are prices visible at that moment in the recording, not a documented price list for every upgrade level. The sources also do not establish that purchasing these upgrades is required before building a base.

Lunar Blocks: What the Building Screen Shows

The most direct building-related footage appears at 10:37, when players see a panel labeled LUNAR BLOCKS. It includes a placed-block counter alongside several controls and status labels.

Panel elementRecorded display
Mode and stage labelsMULTI and STAGE 4
Strike counterSTRIKE 4/4
Hit counterHITS 7/8
TimerTIMER 0:00
ControlsSTEP, FORWARD, and STOP
Placement counter5 Blocks Placed

This screen suggests that block placement is involved in construction, but the available notes do not confirm the full building process. In particular, they do not explain how to open the panel, select a location, or connect placed blocks to automation facilities.

The footage notes also identify purchase buttons with prices appearing in the million-dollar range. Because the text is small, those figures should not be treated as a reliable construction budget.

The safest conclusion is narrower: the official page confirms expandable lunar bases, while the gameplay recording shows a Lunar Blocks interface with placement tracking. A specific layout, room system, or required block count is not documented.

Robot and Drone Bays at the Base

Automation is the best-supported function associated with the Clean the Moon! lunar base. The official description explicitly confirms that cleaning robots can be unlocked to automate work.

The gameplay recording adds visible examples of crew facilities:

  • CREW ROBOT BAY: At 15:34, players see an upgrade sign offering another robot for the crew. The displayed upgrade button reads $24.00.
  • CREW DRONE BAY: At 20:31, players see a sign describing drones traveling to nearby dust, collecting it, and selling it at the base. Its upgrade button displays $400.00.
  • BUY A DRONE: Beside that drone-bay display, a separate purchase option shows $3,100.78.

Both bay displays include rows labeled COST PER ROBOT or COST PER DRONE, DUST CAP, GEMS PER RECYCLE, and RECYCLE BANK. Their presence is visible, but the notes do not establish complete rules for recycling or gems.

The displayed amounts are snapshots from one gameplay recording. They do not establish starting costs, fixed prices, or an optimal purchase order.

The footage also shows the message “Scrap Grabber is on the job.” This appears to indicate another automated cleaner becoming active, although its exact connection to base construction is not documented.

FAQ

How do you unlock the Clean the Moon! lunar base?

The official page confirms that players can build and expand a lunar base, but the supplied sources do not document a specific unlock condition, purchase price, or required zone.

Does the lunar base clean automatically?

The official description supports automated cleaning through unlockable robots. Gameplay footage also shows crew robot and drone bays, with drone signage describing dust collection and selling at the base.

Are Lunar Blocks confirmed base-building materials?

They appear to be related to construction: gameplay shows a LUNAR BLOCKS panel and a “5 Blocks Placed” counter. However, their exact role in building the lunar base remains uncertain in the available footage.
