    It's weird seeing so many people give good reviews, this would be rated sub-par as an FPS even in the Doom days because it's so clunky, slow, controls so poorly, and has such little variety. Aiming your gun, even with the circle pad pro or the N3DS c-stick, is like pulling teeth and shooting the gun is shaky and has no feeling of impact at all. Almost any other game on the 3DS out there isIt's weird seeing so many people give good reviews, this would be rated sub-par as an FPS even in the Doom days because it's so clunky, slow, controls so poorly, and has such little variety.

    It's really difficult to give Moon Chronicles a strong appraisal one way or the other. It's far from a stellar experience, but isn't a bad one either. There just isn't anything here that hasn't been done better elsewhere, and I can't see anyone other than FPS-starved 3DS owners or hardcore fans of the original being too interested.

    Moon was a different project on the DS. It is an extremely atmospheric game and, even if it's short, can satiate the will of 3DS owners for games of the genre. The biggest problem is the episodic nature of the game -- the relationship between price and content will get better as the future episodes are released, but, at this point, the value of the game doesn't meet the expectations.

    Moon Chronicles: Episode 1 lifts the veil off of Renegade Kid’s revamped throwback FPS title. It's a healthy blend of retro aesthetics and modern controls, while the B-movie narrative set the stage for a solid shooter that’s a good fit for the 3DS eShop. It might be short, but it succeeded in leaving me with a desire for more. Hopefully the wait won’t be too long.
