●I can't see the screen through my tears.
There’s a game with mediocre graphics and tedious gameplay that gets overwhelmingly positive feedback from all the gamers around the world. Yes, it’s To the Moon. It’s already been 5 years since I first played it, I believe I will never forget the touching story the game has conveyed to me. When someone argues that games are not art, I would recommend him to play To the Moon.
Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts have been hired to rewrite the memories of Johnny Wyles in order to fulfill his dying wish.
Unlike most other dying men, Johnny has a wish of going to the moon. So the doctors dive into Johnny’s mind and they effectively relive his life in reverse. But no matter how they search for the reason, they don't understand Johnny's wish of going to the moon. How do I explain why the game’s brilliant without giving out spoilers? All I can say, in the end, the secret of Johnny makes me cry like a fool.
The gameplay has us chat with NPC, find the hidden items, and solve puzzles to continue. For a story-driven game, the gameplay is repetitive and boring, but I didn't really care about that since the story is so fascinating. As the game progresses, you will find the items you collected have meaning behind them.
The soundtrack is a stand-out. Until now, The Game OST For River is still the treasure in my possession. Every time I hear it again, Time just goes back to that wonderful afternoon I played the To the Moon.
The mobile version of the game is literally better than the PC version. Because the PC was made in RPG Maker and the mobile version is a Unity 3D remake. So the graphics and game content were updated a lot.
Generally speaking, Even I played a lot of games, To the Moon is still the most special one for me, because I can't see the screen through my tears.
