    I'm surprised by the low user scores. I really enjoyed this game. It was better than I expected. It has some minor tech issues, but gameplay makes up for it. The story kept my interest and the ending had a twist. If you enjoy Lovecraft, space, Mars and suspenseful games, you will enjoy this. I love this game.

    Love all the things this could have been which just makes the game that much worse when it doesn't deliver.

    A really spooky journey. Can't say much about it other than it is weird. You can easily loose your interest in the story. It still has some flaws in terms of writing. Overall, graphic and sound are amazing, and i did had fun with the game. I recommend waiting for a sale. P.S. i didn't felt a lovecraft influence, but maybe that's just me.

    It is not a perfect game by any stretch of the imagination but it also not as bad as some people say. The game has an intense atmosphere that keeps you anticipating what will happen next. Puzzles are pretty basic and not too difficult. The story is quite gripping and interesting but it loses its momentum towards the end. It is a game worth trying when it's discounted

    This game wants to be a survival horror, in space, with Lovecraft's inspiration. Why not, I love horror, I love space, I love Lovecraft. Is it good? It's oki. Let's say most of the time, it's more a walking simulator than a real survival horror. The atmosphere is still pretty good, some moments are spooky. Writing is often good but has some bad moments too, some flaws. Puzzles are reallyThis game wants to be a survival horror, in space, with Lovecraft's inspiration.

    If the atmosphere of Moons of Madness is rather well posed successful through its story and its compartmentalized environments, borrows paranoia any Lovecraftian in Martian confinement, difficult not to go around in circles quickly, the fault of a relative monotony in the course disappointing or agreed history and puzzles.

    Moons of Madness is a game whose parts do not end up integrating. The proposal is not bad and it has interesting moments that will provoke the worst of fears, however, its failures and limitations end up acting against it.

    Given how nice it looks, I suspect that if you were to strip out most of Moons of Madness’ gameplay — such as it is — you would’ve been left with a very solid (if somewhat short) horror walking simulator. Instead, all you have here a somewhat scary horror game that manages to drown itself in a whole lot of pointless busywork.
