Catastrophe of ZTGD writes: A darkly methodical FPS on the DS should be entirely refreshing but instead feels phoned in, as though Renegade Kid covered all the basics without tapping into a deeper gaming vision. It's too bad that the proficient Moon is a disappointing example of how technical achievement is not enough to make a compelling game.

Today, Onion Games announced that the legendary RPG – or rather, the anti-RPG – Moon has been re-released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. The game was originally released on PlayStation in 1997. It was resurrected 22 years later on Nintendo Switch and now on other platforms.
1990s anti-RPG Moon is getting a PC and PlayStation re-release "soon".
"it turns RPG conventions on their heads, including the trope of storming into someone’s house and going through all their stuff." What? Those are pretty typical RPG conventions. Anti RPG? Maybe, but not evidenced based on anything described in the article.
As the wait for Deltarune continues, this writer wanted to offer her readers a collection of similar experiences. Considering Undertale’s beginnings as an Earthbound hack, this piece aims to explore some of what could be considered Undertale’s family — games that also began with RPGMaker, were inspired by Earthbound, share a similar ideology, and games focus on reactive stories. Additionally, this piece hopes to highlight some of the lesser known Undertale-esque works, the ones readers might not immediately find when sifting through Google’s suggestions. As an added bonus, these games are budget-friendly - several of them are even free! Others range from $5-20. (Many were included in the BLM bundle on Itch.io, both Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass and Anodyne from this list are included.) There’s something for every Undertale fan in this list, so hopefully you readers will find something new to ease the anticipation for Deltarune!

Lost is on tonight!!
Yeah the game is rather dull at times. The initial wow is quickly quieted once you enter the 10 room that looks just like the other 9 heh.
"It's too bad that the proficient Moon is a disappointing example of how technical achievement is not enough to make a compelling game."
indeed :(
Why in the hell is this getting more hits than a review of this same game from lets say ThatGamingSite.com a long 4 weeks ago?
