Simply amazing

I have never been moved by a video game in the way To the Moon did. The story, while simple, has some of the best writing I have ever seen in a video game. It is captivating, engaging, and moving in ways that are rare in any media these days, let alone video games. And to top it all off, the dialog is natural; it feels like something people would actually say. The soundtrack is also simple, but it fits the mood and story seamlessly. The graphics are primitive 16-bit era affairs with a few hand-drawn still frames, but they actually enhance the story considerably, i.e. the story is not lost in the uncanny valley. The game play is rather lacking, but to be honest anything more than what is present would also detract from the story, considerably. It is also short, clocking in at 4-5 hours or so. All-in-all To the Moon is a great game. Well worth the money and time.

Absolutely Spectacular

Most reviews I've seen say things like "best story in a video game". I'd go a step further: this is one of the best, most heartfelt stories I've experienced in any medium. If this were a movie, I'd watch it over and over again. Gameplay is admittedly minimal, but it's just enough to be engaging. Apart from a few technical issues, this game is unbelievably amazing.

Beautiful and moving

Never expected a 16-bit game to deliver such a moving story. I hope to see more from the developer.

Just... great.

Between this, 'The Walking Dead' and 'Spec Ops: The Line' I'm starting to think that 2012 will be remembered in gaming circles as the year that the medium definitively began to 'grow up' and embrace storytelling as a core tenant, not just something to string quests or explosive set-pieces together. I wouldn't dream of spoiling the story which is the whole raison d'etre for this work, suffice to say that if it was a licensed property it'd probably be 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: The Game'. Like so many other people I was emotionally gut-punched by this story to the point where even seeing the box art or listening to the music brings back bittersweet memories of the experience. The fact that something which is not voice acted, looks like a Megadrive era JRPG and clocks in at about 6 hours of play can have such an effect is nothing short of phenomenal. To be fair, yes; the 'interactivity' is minimal and seems designed more to keep players 'invested' in their sense of control of the characters than anything else; no-one is going to get an adrenaline rush from this one. That said I will say I was not once board or felt as if the game was wasting my time. Yes, the dialogue is of the 'click through' variety, but crucially it's *well* written (for an example of the same style done badly see any Japanese dating 'sim' ever). Oh, and even if you don't buy the game, buy the soundtrack. In a world where all was fair, this one should be getting a 'Soundtrack for Visual Media' Grammy.
