4/5 stars
The gorgeous pixel art and dark themes within Moonscars help make it an enjoyable action-platformer by new developer Black Mermaid.

8/10
That Moonscars is like so many other similar releases only serves to make its ability to differentiate itself and stand out that much more remarkable. A well accomplished title that is easily recommended to anyone with even a passing interest in the genre.

7/10
Moonscars is an intentionally bleak adventure in an unforgiving world, but players who seek a genuine challenge will certainly find it here.

2D Darksouls (2) with Logorrhea
This game takes a lot of inspiration from DS2, and not always in a good way. Enemies are spongy and can kill you really quick. The distance between a boss arena and the last bonfire is always just a bit too far to feel good, making for very annoying corpse runs. The platforming is VERY weird. The char kind of "snaps" to ledges and walls from a distance you normally wouldn't think possible to grab. Like 5 screens into my first run I managed to grab a ledge through a wall right into the spikes on the other side. The design makes for some great screenshots and gifs...but it wears itself out quit fast, since everything pretty much looks the same. It doesn't help that there are only a handful of different enemies, and that includes reskins. The combat on the other hand is good, attacks are clearly telegraphed, bosses aren't just "normal enemy but bigger" and need some tactics to kill. Story....is wordsalad. As are the item descriptions. An example? "Item gets destroyed on death" would be way too simple and comprehensive. No, it's "Bonestone is nothing else than a bone powder cookie. traditional burial gift to Celestial Mistress. This treat is supposed to ingratiate the deceased one to Her. LEFTOVERS REMAIN UPON IRMA'S DEATH" This whole paragraph is on every item that gets removed when you respawn. The game has very odd performance issues for the first ~15 min every time you start the game, where it sometimes just freezes for a couple of frames, as if loading some assets. One of the earrings bugged out for me, it displayed on the map, but wasn't there. The game never crashed. Overall still a good soulslike platformer with very light metroidvania features, One playthrough is about 10-12 hours

Too dull to be worth it
Art style, while cool, can be kind of painful to look at after a while. Very gloomy atmosphere, the dark colors everywhere don't help distinguish certain elements much. Combat is fine if a bit slow and sometimes clunky. Story, what I played so far, is incomprehensible, because Dark Souls was a thing I guess. Overall kind of not worth it, I'm glad I got this free
