I agree with Fastolph Cottar's description of water ice, it is after all a direct quote from Wikipedia. The problem is the ice in Mooncraft is composed of Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) and not Water (H2O). If it is pure hydrogen fluoride then the surface of a moon in Mooncraft is at most −83.6 °C, but probably well below that. If it is an aqueous solution then we would be dealing with hydrofluoric acid and the freezing temperature would depend on the concentration of HF. The liquid state would be highly corrosive and posionous. Whether it is pure HF or the acid, in my opinion, calling it water is a bit of a misnomer and more than a little bit confusing. But again, this is just a game and the creators can do whatever they like. Part of the fun for me is trying to figure out why.
