![]() ![]() To interact with different computers, doors, and items, you will use your handy Biogage device which is attached to your left arm and comes up at the press of a single button. For the outdoor sections, your O2 levels and heartbeat info are displayed on the bottom of your helmet’s UI which becomes visible only when you look down and when you look back up, the UI is gone giving you a clear view of the screen. However, this is not a big challenge as you will find plenty of spots to refill your Oxygen while you are out exploring the surface of mars and solving puzzles.Īnother good thing about Moons of Madness is that the UI is literally non-existent. You will need to manage your Oxygen in the outdoor sections because if you don’t, you will die. ![]() You will get to explore both the inside of the facilities and some sections of the game are also set on the surface of Mars where you will be required to wear a helmet that will ensure that you have enough oxygen for your trip. However even with areas being bigger, you are not allowed to leave the areas at that time and you are limited in that particular area until you solve the puzzle. Most of the time, the path is pretty much linear however some of the locations are pretty big and they offer a lot of space for you to explore and find out different required items or solve puzzles. Moons of Madness is not technically an open-world game. ![]() However, Moons of Madness creates its own spot on the list because it is set in the Lovecraftian horror genre which itself is pretty scary and when combined with the classic horror setting of choice for many, Mars, we get the ultimate spooky setting packaged into a single game. Mars is one of the most used locations for many horror games and some of my favorite horror games are set on Mars as well with Doom topping the charts. Like most of my reviews, I will not really dig deep into the story of Moons of Madness for this review because you have to experience the horror yourself. Since you are just a technician, your main tasks are to maintain the working equipment around the facility and you are pretty much unknown about the senior management of the facility or what is the real purpose behind the current facility however they quickly change from maintenance to survival as you start seeing things which are one jumpscare away from taking away your sanity. Shane is stationed as a technician on Invictus which is a state of the art Mars research outpost. Moons of Madness is set on planet Mars where you step in the shoes of Shane Newehart. This all combines to deliver one of the most solid horror experiences that we’ve had in a long time. Moons of Madness is a brilliant cosmic horror title that combines exploration and puzzle-solving along with Lovecraftian horror mechanics mixed into the play. Since the console releases are planned for next year, our review of Moons of Madness is for the Steam version of the title. It has been developed by RockPocket Games and published by Funcom. Arriving just in time is Moons of Madness which takes a bold new direction of horror. Halloween is right around the corner which means that we are getting more and more horror games as the night of spooks approaches near. ![]()
