Sept. 2024

I have never cried so much over a 4 hour long game. Even after 13 years (!?) the story made me bawl my eyes out a second time. I watched pewdiepie play it in middle school and cried myself to sleep in the bathroom... And now as an adult I cried through the credits again. Truly a story for the ages.

Aug. 2024

There are no good graphs, no good gameplay, but there is a touching story，its enough for this game.

Aug. 2024

One of the very few times I feel as if I had something to say after playing a game but just couldn't. As I sit here writing this to the end credits I struggle to think about how to recommend this game without spoilers. It's only 4 hours long and you won't regret it

July 2024

I got this game 2 years ago. Never touched it once but last night I felt like I wanted to play it for some reason. The story speaks to me in deeper level I can't put into words. This game breaks me, but in the same time it changed me. Truly pure and beautiful. 100/10.

Sometimes whatever you do, you can't change the things you truly love. Sum-Up In-depth analysis further down. 🟩 Pros 🟥 Cons • Touching love story & interesting plot. • Not the biggest fan of visual novels, but this was fun to read. • Well-rounded and interesting characters. • Humor is quite good here. • Visuals aren't the best thing about it, but the game isn't ugly, but too small for my screen. • No Settings to support changing anything in the game. • No Cloud save between Steam PC and Steam Deck. 🟨 Bugs & Issues‎ 🔧 Specs ⚙️ Settings & FPS No bugs that I've discovered. • CPU: i7-12700K • RAM: 32GB DDR4 • GPU: 3080 10GB • SD: SSD • RES: 1440p Settings: Ultra FPS: 60 🌌 Content & Replay Value If you like to take your time, absorb the dialogues, the story and play the 2 DLC's you roughly can sink between 7-10 hours as I did. No replay value as there's nothing different to justify replaying it. 💵 Is it worth buying? Yes. I got it at a much cheaper price, bundled with the sequels. For the time spent and all, I think it was worth it. 🎮 Steam Deck Compatibility It's the perfect type of game I recommend playing on the Steam Deck. Since my Ultrawide monitor was an issue visually, I hopped on Steam Deck and I completed my entire playthrough there. 🧾 Verdict: Excellent [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2761784706] Rating Chart Here I really enjoyed the story of the game. Some might give this a 10/10. I am more picky with these types of games and despite having a very beautiful story, I can't help but give it a 9/10 for its visuals and no support for different monitors or resolutions..

If you wish to get more gaming listings, news and reviews check our [url=https://www.youtube.com/@tale_play] Youtube channel as we release videos there often. In-depth ⚔️ Gameplay & Exploration: It's a walking simulator for the most part with a single puzzle type of game that helps you unlock and link new memories. It's very primitive and easy to get into, so with or without the puzzle the game feels the same. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3144167163 😄 Fun: I liked the story, the characters and the idea behind the game. Kept me engaged throughout my several sittings. 🏞 Visuals & Presentation: If you don't mind the tiny screen with little to see to details, you can actually appreciate the effort put in effort of animations, visuals and overall presentation. Some things don't entirely match up, like the end scene where you see a hand-drawn image with the rest of the game style, but that can be ignored and can help you kinda see what the vision of devs had when made this. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3144167671 🔊 Sound & Voice-Acting: No voice acting, but had great sound effects and music. I really liked the music. Calming, sad in some parts, but very catchy. 📖 Story & Writing: Best part of the game. It tells a story of a dying man called John, who is in care of a woman with two children called Lilly, who calls 2 Doctors to fulfill his wish of John before he dies to go to the Moon. In the game you discover his entire life, going backwards progressively from old age to a young boy. There's love story involved and sad moments which will make you shed a tear. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3144167512 🧵 Length & Difficulty: Super easy game to play, with little effort in puzzle sections. Length wise is a short game and if you're determined you might be able to finish it in a single sitting. Also, achievement hunting will be easy as you only need to beat this game. ⭕️Verdict: I think To the Moon is a great visual novel, walking simulator game that tells a beautiful love and tragic story of a dying man wishing to go to the moon. I am captivated by the story and can't wait to see the next adventures of Dr. Neil Watts and Dr. Eva Rosalene. I highly recommend this game!
