A game that will take you way over the moon.
To The Moon, a beautiful story filled with humor, love, sadness, and joy, is available right now on GOG.com for $8.99--that’s 10% off until Tuesday, July 17 at 6:59 EDT.
To The Moon is about two scientists, Dr. Eva Rosalene and Dr. Neil Watts, who can alter a person’s memories. An old dying man named Johnny hires them to change his life, but only in his memory, and allow him to experience a final moment of happiness and accomplishment before he dies. Johnny wants to go to the moon. Eva and Neil need to go through his memories, plant a dream early in John’s childhood, and help him become an astronaut. They will explore his life, the stories of his friends and family, all intertwined in a rich and thought-provoking narrative.
In theory, To The Moon is a game, but it’s more of an experience, a unique story presented through our favorite medium. The game is not technically impressive, it doesn’t offer any new and cool visual bells and whistles, it is, however, beautiful and touching regardless of your age, gender, favorite genre, gaming skills, or sensitivity. This is a game for everyone who can appreciate fantastic storytelling, for everyone who misses 2D jRPG-style graphics, for everyone who loves adventures or indie games, and, finally, for everyone who wishes for a quiet time off--sinking into a game and getting out of this world.
To The Moon is a special, emotionally-charged title, that proves there are some areas that gaming as art has yet to explore. Get it now 10% off on GOG.com for $8.99 and you’ll be glad you did.
