What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Moonscars delivers a tight, deliberate combat loop rooted in precision and punishment.
While not a traditional Soulslike in its gameplay loop, every other part of its being – especially it’s worldbuilding and narrative – absolutely reeks (in a good way, mostly) of Fromsoft flavor.
The developer also sat down and cooked up an interesting variety of gameplay elements.
The only progression you really feel is how dexterous and adept you become at the game’s combat, which will ask much of you as enemies are ferocious and unforgiving, with long combos and brutal coordination.
This game comes with a great art style and Sounddesign that together make for a weighty impacting experience.
Sound design and score are top notch, with brooding ambiance as you traverse the castle, and sinister boss themes to rally you on that "this'll be the one" attempt.
