Once I started doing that, I learned that the soundtrack in this game is incredible too! Big fan of the dreamy Warp-Wet-Woods, the various versions of Kera-Ma-Go that show up throughout the game and Mask, the completely absurd free jazz piece with the alto saxophone. In terms of mechanics, the only thing I truly couldn’t stand doing (but ended up doing anyway) was winning the special prize in the fishing contest.įor the first few hours I was shocked by how eerily silent the game was willing to be, until I realized the reason there’s often no music is because you can just play your own soundtrack after you buy MDs. The sister of the Eco crew (all of them in general, if I’m being real), the love you get from the firework maker and his wife after you successfully build a firework that’ll power the rocket in particular are the two that stand out. There’s quite a few things in this game that are jarringly uncool in a game that is usually anything but. Silly at times, poignant in others and undeniably one of a kind. Tim Rogers, of Action Button fame and formerly of Kotaku, worked on the English localization of this game and boy does it show! Even more than Dandy Dungeon, I feel like the writing of moon carries his incredibly distinct tone, turns of phrase and -isms that really mesh well with the overall vibe of the game. Even when I did near the end as I finally ran out of ideas, most of the answers I couldn’t reach on my own still felt plausibly within reach (with few exceptions) if I’d just persevered and poked around a little bit longer. While I digest that who knows how long, here’re some thought/observations I held onto during my playthrough:įor a game of its given time and genre, I was surprised how much the logic of the puzzle solutions just… make sense? I don’t play too many adventure games or games with the sort of cyclical systems that moon has but I was genuinely astonished how little need I felt to consult a guide as I went about playing the game. It’s perhaps a little too early for me to say but I wouldn’t be surprised if I go on to consider it one of my favorite games of all time. Moon is not a game where you’ll fight to level up - your own progress comes by gathering lost “Love”!Īs you explore the world, you’ll meet a crazy cast of weird and wonderful NPCs.Only just finished this a while ago but… I think I can safely echo all the lofty praise people often heap upon moon.

One night, under the silvery light of a full moon, a young boy is suddenly sucked through his TV and into a videogame - a classic JRPG called “Moon World”.įollowing closely behind the game’s brave hero, the boy begins his own journey to recover the world’s missing moonlight by collecting “Love”.Īs Moon World’s hero loots and levels up by cutting down monsters for experience points - you know, as heroes do - the boy releases their souls and collects their “Love”.

Moon is a game about turning those tropes upside down, and seeing what really happens behind the scenes of your favorite RPG videogames. “Why is it OK that this hero is killing thousands of innocent monsters?” “Why is it OK that this hero is breaking into houses and stealing items from people’s drawers?” Have you ever played an RPG and wondered… Now, 22 years later, revived by a team of its original creators, find out why it became an instant cult-classic, as moon comes to the Nintendo Switch - in English, for the first time ever! A long, long time ago, under the silvery light of a full moon, the legendary “anti-RPG” moon was released in Japan.
