About Mothlight

The unwanted are kicked into
the black sea...
... where they would
melt and harden into
a pure metal.

The metal was then harvested
and put to good use by the
common man.

From the most handsome developer ever...
Samu presents you with a new RPG experience that will
Blow. Your. Mind.

Introducing Mothlight. A game about exploration, weird stuff,
and exploring a world made entirely out of people. Literally.

WORLD

This world is different.
As people were kicked into the black sea,
their bodies melted and then hardened
into a pure metal called "Dreg Ore".

Soon the ore started to clump together
and form islands. This happened more
and more until continents were made.

People who were kicked in fell on land instead
of in the water. And then boom. Civilization.

GAMEPLAY

Your main goal is to explore and thrive!
Gear up, get cooler armor and be more stylish.
Fight more bizarre bosses and find more exciting items!
The world is yours to conquer!

STORY

Neethan threatens Augus in a time most harsh.
Demons from the darkest depths of the sea are making everyone go mad.
The Apostles of the Deep Ones are manipulating powerful entities...
And Enzo is stuck in the middle of it.
Escape this hell and return to the world above...
...or be devoured by the eldritch abominations below.

While the pixel art of the world and the drawn art style of the monsters reminds me a LOT of the Original OFF, The story is very unique sand pretty engaging. The game was challenging at points, but that's more so because i never used any of the boss "dregs" to upgrade my health like i should have. (i thought there would be a secret ending involving them for some reason). All in all the worldbuilding is Solid, (Definitely going to play Soulscape to find out what happened to the dragons). The attack animations for each spell and weapon was unique and pretty fun to watch, Id say this game and the possible story afterwards are more then worth investing the time to play.

Игра "Mothlight" — это атмосферное путешествие в мире, где магия переплетается с природой. Прекрасная анимация и спокойная музыка создают завораживающую атмосферу. Геймплей основан на исследовании и решении головоломок, что требует внимательности и логики. Однако механики иногда кажутся излишне простыми, а сюжет — минимальным. Несмотря на это, игра оставляет яркое впечатление благодаря своему визуальному стилю и эмоциональному настроению. Подойдет тем, кто ценит медленный, размышляющий ритм.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Toxic Commando Game Pass: subscribe, or buy the key?

The Toxic Commando Game Pass add landed on 12 November. Our price record since late September shows the key route barely moved, which changes what a subscription is worth.

Games like Titanfall 2, for the pilot or for the Titan

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.

It Takes Two cannot be played alone, and that is the whole design. Games like It Takes Two that give each player a different job — including one that makes do with a single pair of hands.
