![]() Yet, Moonlighter doesn’t really do anything with that. It’s a clever idea: shifting the focus of a game to the shopkeeper and their small community instead of the burly hero who swaggers in to spend boatloads of cash. It’s like if Vegas closed up all of its casinos because the slot machines were eating people alive. The town has boarded up all but one of the dungeons and the money has left with the adventurers. However, the dangerous dungeons have taken their toll and the untimely deaths of numerous adventurers have scared people away. ![]() The dungeons attracted adventurers who would spend money in the town, making up the base of the economy. Will’s town is a community that was founded next to a series of dungeons. There isn’t really a narrative to speak of in Moonlighter, but there is some clever world-building. Moonlighter might not be a revolutionary title, largely because it doesn’t quite capitalize on some of its better ideas, but it hits far more often than it misses. Moonlighter hits more often than it misses and the synergy of collecting loot then selling it at your shop is nice a gameplay loop that is constantly rewarding. ![]() ![]() In an effort to fulfill his dreams and breathe new life into his shop, Will adventures into the nearby dungeons to discover their secrets and reap rewards. Players assume the role of Will, a local shopkeeper whose inherited store, Moonlighter, is falling on hard times. Like many games funded on Kickstarter, Moonlighter is an ambitious effort, but unlike most games backed by the crowdfunding site, it mostly delivers on its premise. Moonlighter is a new release from Digital Sun Games, a Spanish game studio that launched a Kickstarter to fund the development back in May 2016. ![]()
