Space flight occurs beyond the Earth's atmosphere, and space flight simulators feature the ability to roll, pitch, and yaw. Space flight simulators use flight dynamics in a free environment; this free environment lets the spacecraft move within the three-dimensional coordinate system or the x, y, and z (applicate) axis.

Computer Gaming World in 1991 stated Moonbase was "a realistic simulation that offers a challenge", with "visual spice and a pinch of whimsy". [4] In a 1992 survey of science fiction games, the magazine gave the title four out of five stars, describing it as "Probably the most detailed realistic space 'construction' set ever produced.
