Moon Chronicles is an episodic first person adventure through the perspective of antagonist, Major Kane. He and his team are instructed to investigate the location of a mysterious moon base. Upon arrival, they realize that something much more dire is afoot. Kane traverses the area and discovers a peculiar compound that enters his body.
Moon Chronicles is a remake of the original game, Moon, which came out on the DS as a retail title. Developer Renegade Kid remade the game to harness the 3DS's additional power and 3D effects, and released Moon Chronicles Episode 1, which we reviewed for launch. While we felt the game was good, Episode 1 was way too short, and the score suffered a little from that. Renegade Kid decided to release the remaining episodes all at once, which now gives us the complete package, for a very reasonable price of $8.99 total, depending on whether you get the Season Pass. So how does the remainder of the game stack up?
VRFocus - Next week sees the launch of the New Nintendo 3DS, a updated version of the popular handheld system that packs in new control options, upgraded 3D capabilities and improved processing. With it comes something of a revival in content for the platform, with a large number of titles planned for release over the next few months. However just ahead of the system’s launch comes the remainder of Moon Chronicles, an episodic first-person shooter (FPS) series that remakes the original Moon on DS from Renegade Kid. It may seem strange to pick a handheld title for VRFocus’ ‘Make it a (Virtual) Reality’ series, but take one look at Moon Chronicles and it’s clear to see that the title is ripe for a VR adaption.
Hardcore Gamer: Renegade Kid’s first-person adventure Moon Chronicles is finally available in its entirety, as episodes 2, 3, and 4 of the game launched today on the 3DS eShop.
