The most compelling and cohesive narrative of Moons of Madness is the one associated with the Mars station and what occurs to it about halfway through the game. In addition, he is discovering details about the secrets of the Mars station and some of his fellow colleagues. His history starts to appear to him as hallucinations scattered throughout the story.
As it progresses, the game starts to add plot lines from Shane’s past and his present. Moons of a MessĪt first, Moons of Madness seems to have a straightforward four- to five-hour plot. If only the story Moons of Madness told was not so intertwined with numerous plot threads. Even though the puzzles felt pointless, they really did place me on the surface of Mars. The only real enjoyment of these science-fiction activities was the interaction I had with the sleek futuristic designs of equipment. On the science-fiction side of things, I got really tired of calibrating solar panels, searching for power cells and rerouting power through nodes very quickly. Fetching orbs and locating where others were in the cosmic cave space was entertaining.
The best puzzles were undoubtedly the ones that helmed from the Lovecraft genre. On the other hand, some of the puzzles are well thought out, and I had a genuinely fun time solving them. Most of these puzzles are tedious and fill the empty spaces with what feels like busywork. The majority of gameplay Moons of Madness brings to the table is through puzzles. Nevertheless, the excitement to explore was stifled with tedious tasks and puzzles.ĭeveloper: Rock Pocket Games / Publisher: Funcom Puzzle after Puzzle after Puzzle The station is exactly what I would expect to be on the Mars surface in a handful of years. Moons of Madness absolutely nails its environments. The more I walked around the station, the more I wanted to see. The station is brilliantly designed and pay homage to popular science fiction movies. Once Shane wakes up, he is able to explore the Mars station. However, the beginning sequence did set the standard for what would come later. The nightmare was exactly that, a nightmare. In an instant, this nightmare is ended by Shane waking up. A strange women’s voice can also be heard throughout the beginning of this nightmare that comes into play later on in the story. Shane wakes up to the Orochi Mars station covered in strange tentacles, and many of his coworkers gone. You take control of Shane Newheart, an engineer for the company Orochi. Moons of Madness starts strong before it becomes bogged down by the rising action. Developer: Rock Pocket Games / Publisher: Funcom The Start of a Hopeful Nightmare
