About This Game

Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts have peculiar jobs: They give people another chance to live, all the way from the very beginning... but only in their patients' heads.

Due to the severity of the operation, the new life becomes the last thing the patients remember before drawing their last breath. Thus, the operation is only done to people on their deathbeds, to fulfill what they wish they had done with their lives, but didn’t.

This particular story follows their attempt to fulfill the dream of an elderly man, Johnny. With each step back in time, a new fragment of Johnny's past is revealed. As the two doctors piece together the puzzled events that spanned a life time, they seek to find out just why the frail old man chose his dying wish to be what it is.

And Johnny's last wish is, of course... to go to the moon.

Amazing story, 10/10

Very little gameplay and rather short. This game makes up for that with a phenomenal story and soundtrack. Definitely worth playing through at least once!

This game has easily one of the most emotional and riveting stories I have ever played in a game before. Combined with an astounding soundtrack that goes along with the game perfectly (and one that will hit you right in the feels),clever writing that will make you chuckle and possibly tear up, To The Moon was an absolute joy to play. I highly recommend playing through this game.....just as long as you have a box of tissues nearby.

This game will make you cry!! Seriously tho, it was good enough that I felt like I should write a review for it (which is a big deal for me lol). My first bit of praise for this game is its beautiful music. Music can make or break a game for me, and suffice to say, To the Moon's OST is one of my favorites. Secondly, the story is supurb. The plot has perfect pacing, moderate origionality, and fantastic character design, not to mention you will definatley shead a few manly tears (I know I did T^T). The way the story is set up (moving back through a character's memories) you are always discovering the product of the character's actions before you know what is going on, which kept me intrested and invested in the story all the way through. The game is short though, I finished it in about 3.5hr (.2 was idling), but it doesnt have to be any longer. The length of the game is perfect, it allows enough time to tell the story, without becoming boring.

If your looking for a tear-jerking feel's trip, that leaves you feeling oddly philosophical, with great music and character design, the give To the Moon a try, you'll love it. Can't recommend this game more! 10/10

What can I tell?
It is not really much of a game, more of a interactive novel, but this is not a bad thing, quite the contrary in this case.

To the Moon is just beatiful experience.

Soundtrack and graphics complement a beautiful and touching story. Do not play without a box of tissues, this game is likely to make you cry your eyes out.

Characters are lovable, story is good and touching, there is some humour thrown in, but it never really takes you away from the core of the thing.
Highly recommended.

There's no way I could have not loved this game. It was exceptionally beautiful and made me cry more than once. Powerful story and peaceful experience.

This is one of the best games i've ever played in my entire life so far. The game has a great story which makes you want to play the game over and over again. After just a couple of minutes of gameplay you notice how much time and thought the game developers have put into it. I recomend this to anyone who likes games with a good story and good music. You don't have to like RPG games to like this one. This is one of the few games that will probably make you cry. I can't wait till Freebird Games makes a sequel. The game is worth the money and i give it 12/10 stars

I got this game as a gift from my boyfriend, and when I first started playing it I viewed it as another game. But when I decided to play through it completely with my boyfriend sitting there with me, I had my heart shattered, rebuilt, and then shattered again as I witnessed the most beautiful love story within a game. This is a must have, and when it goes on sale during Steam Sales, I would recommend it highly as a 1st purchase.

I love this game, and there isn't a day that goes by that I haven't stopped thinking about it. 10/10 would have my heart shattered again

I knew To the Moon received a lot of praise, I had it in my library for a long time but never tried it. I finally decided to see what is was about. It started slowly, it didn't catch my interest right away. But I kept playing past the first hour and could not put it away until it was over. I played the whole game in one sitting (4.5 hours), it was truly amazing.

The graphics are not what make this game great, the gameplay is minimalist, very linear as you cannot decide how the story will change, you just walk around and do whatever is required to keep the story unfolding in front of you. But the story is amazing, touching, sad and beautiful, sometimes funny, simply brilliant. It would make an awesome movie, I hope they do it someday. It would without any doubt become the best movie based on a video game ever made.

If you have a heart, you must play this game.

Personally I liked this game , but to be honest not for everyone. Read an equal mixture of positive/negative reviews and decide.

PROS
~The story*
~Characters (although most info on the protagonists will be found in the minisodes)
~The art

(*) The story is good , but not great. Fans of the game may say it is "GENIUS" but in my opinion there was no genius plot element or twist, it was a a good and nice story and that`s all.

CONS
~The controls*
~The humor**

(*) The characters` movements feel "slidey" . I think the maps are made on a grid pattern so if you use a keyboard you might stop pressing the key but the character will keep moving to the end block , it creates a "slidey" feeling and puts me kinda off. You can of couse you can use a mouse so it`s up to you , I prefer keyboard and the keyboard didn`t feel right.
(**) The humor feels forced and cringey. Dr.Watts for example constantly makes jokes and puns, I think they are intentionally written bad and cringey but I think it was unnecessary.

I personally suggest you try it, you will probably like it.
7/10

Grab a box of tissues and strap yourself in, this game packs a punch...to your eye holes!

The feels are reals in this quick but heavy story-driven gem. Its a game where you sit and play from start to finish while keeping you on the edge of your seat every step of the way. Gameplay mechanics are simple, the music is beautiful, and the puzzles are balanced just enough to keep you interested.
An absolute must play and worth every penny.

To The Moon is simply put the most beautiful experience I've ever had in a looooong time. It takes an alternate approach to story-telling by going backwards in the timeline, and really pays off in the end as a result. It only took four hours for me to finish, but by the end I was covered in tears. Despite the lack of gameplay, the simple concept of exploration was enough for me to continue for I felt that any sort of standard gameplay mechanic would draw away from the story itself. It was an unforgettable journey, and if anyone in the world tells you that video games aren't art just shove this game into their face.

Brilliant Story. Touching Soundtrack. Gorgeous Pixel Art. Just Play It.

P.S. Now I'll never look at a platypus the same way again.
