Lunar Phantom is a black-and-white lunar-lander style arcade game for the classic Mac, written in 1995 by Rolf (Rex) Staflin. Players guide a fragile spacecraft across a series of hazard-filled levels using just three keys, fighting gravity and dwindling fuel to set down safely on each landing pad.
Three-Key Controls
The entire game is played with left, right, and thrust. That deliberate minimalism turns every landing into a balancing act between rotation, momentum, and fuel burn, in the tradition of the classic Lunar Lander arcade lineage.
Monochrome Presentation
Lunar Phantom uses crisp 1-bit graphics that suit the original 68k Mac display. The stark black-and-white rendering keeps the action readable on small Plus, SE, and Classic screens, and the game runs comfortably under Mini vMac.
Era and Compatibility
Released in 1995 as a 68k Macintosh title, Lunar Phantom is documented as compatible from System 6.x through Mac OS 9, with confirmed runs under OS 9.2.2. It represents the final wave of independent monochrome arcade games made for the Classic Mac OS.
