You have 5 days before King Mardokh and the Sun Cultists declare war on Issaria’s tribes. Multiple playthroughs of this short story will let you see it from different angles and uncover new sides to characters, conflicts, and narratives. Try out all 4 player hometowns and 6 player character classes, each with their own abilities and randomly generated upgrades as you build your mythology.

Moon Hunters is a unique little game, but unfortunately it becomes repetitive fast. It plays like an arpg, you choose 3/4 maps, then fight a boss, the game ends, rinse, repeat. Each playthrough unlocks different characters, costumes and food to cook with, but it never feels like the story goes anywhere which is a shame. I loved a lot about the game, including the art style, dialogue and random encounters. I also loved the trait system too, and the summary of your actions at the end is nice the first time you play.
If you like completing achievements, this game is frustrating as a lot of them are tied to random encounters that you may never get. There is also an achievement for cooking all recipes which is kind of crazy, there's 110, but only 3 chances to cook each playthrough (and you start with no ingredients).
A nice little indie game i'm glad I played, I just wish the story progressed naturally (I heard there is a final ending, but to reach it you need to rely on random events and information to solve a puzzle from the characters).

A nice story for a little RPG you can finish in an hour.
What?! Yes, but every time you finish it something unlocks and you can play it again and see a different story. The idea itself is good, and so is the artwork and story, but the maps are randomly generated every time: they guarantee a bit of longevity but it becomes repetitive pretty quickly and, well, there is not much to do in those maps. I played it 3 times so far but alone, probably in good company in co-op it's better.
Recommended, but on sale!

If you're good, you can elope with the Sun King and win without fighting.

I cannot speak for co-op play, but I put in a good hour last night on this and absolutely love it. If you are looking for the gameplay portion of a game, this may not hit the mark for you. However, if you are looking for something atmospheric and story-driven, this is it. The controls are simplistic -- one attack move, one special move, dash. The levels are randomly generated. The true purpose of the game is meant to be in the stories and legends of the peoples and in building your own legends with multiple heroes time and time again. Your decisions along the way determine what skills you build and what personality traits your hero will be remembered for in the legends.
It really just depends on what you're looking for. Those of us who aren't hardcore gamers looking for complex mechanics will be pleased. I meant to just pick it up to try out and got sucked into it. By the time I finished my first run, it had gotten dark outside, and I was sitting in the dark in my living room. It's delightful, it feels good, but don't go in expecting heavy complexity or the ability to finish/solve the game in one run. The entire point is to repeatedly play randomly generated worlds with different heroes and build a history. The game bills itself as a "personality test" more than once, so this shoudn't be a surprise to anyone. It just seems that maybe some people are overlooking that and expecting more than they should.

6 / 10 - Great adventure at an even better price
its like Children of Morta....cept on easy(if you found that hard for some reason), 4 players and with little story.
Pros
- very easy to get into
- casual but can surprise
- solid gameplay for what it is
- nicely priced so cant really complain.
Cons
- Story is a real dripp feed and it holds the game back
- The game implies more variance to the story than there actually is. was really disappointing in that (alot of unanswered questions that you dont just stumble on the answers of, gotta know really specific details to get anything back...)

Awsome music and very beatiful art style. Every time you play it is different so you can play this many times. There is no difficulty setting so game can be too easy or hard and you can't change it for you. To me it is sometimes very hard and I can only try run in levels to hope I don't die. Some characters is lots better and some just feel like no point in them but lose.

Had to play this game for a college class. I actually fell in love with it, the art and gameplay was amazing. I like the way they used previous games to further the main goal. The characters are kind of easy to play, but I kept dying as the druid lol. Would recommend for others if they want to play a nice indie game that is sort of like DnD.
