Hunter's Moon is an entertainment terminal application that revolves around the gambling model. You take part as the captain of a highly advanced spaceship from an interstellar civilization. Your aim is to travel between galactic bodies to harvest ores as your civilization is threatened from diminishing supplies. Earth is suggested to have ample supplies of ore and you go to investigate. You begin the invasion but quickly realize that your fuel supply is limited.

- If successful, player scores fuel and/or ores depending on the Continent. If unsuccessful, player's fuel spply is penalized
- If player has remaining fuel, they are prompted to further invade other Continents (or the same)
- Game ends when player's fuel supply is exhausted
