The Moon Relax

The scenery is beautiful. The music is pretty OK. The gameplay is really where this game kind of comes apart. Driving the rover isn't fun as the camera angles are pretty much locked. Rocks, big and small, will get in your way while you are driving and bring your expedition to a grinding halt. Even when you aren't being stopped by rocks, the driving is just boring. There is very little to see and do on the moon. Crafting is a nightmare of half explained tutorials and different crafting benches. I think I made one oxygen tank. Essentially, there is no natural, intuitive progression. I wish I could give it a thumb sideways but I really can't recommend this. https://youtu.be/-CUvIjrBmY8

The game's instructions are nonsensical and out of order. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198345523987/screenshot/2403321394269320829/ . I wandered around for a while and the game gave me some tip about driving some vehicle I hadn't even seen yet. Eventually I got to the base, and got a skill point. I just selected a skill randomly, but it turns out it was the wrong one. Now, I can't drive the vehicle or get resources, so I probably have to start over. It wasn't until I approached the vehicle that the game suggested getting the top-left skill in the grid. This game has a ROLLING view bob. It caused major motion sickness. Out of thousands of games I've played, this is the second I've ever seen that TWISTS the screen as you walk. You can't turn it off. See screenshot of graphics settings: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198345523987/screenshot/2403321394269318069/ A very bad understanding of the English language https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198345523987/screenshot/2403321394269324127/ . Start buttons are labeled "To begin". Ok buttons are labeled "Use". The voice acting is kinda bad, and I can't understand some of it. But the subtitles are unreadably …

Too many glitches.

More than a game, it's a collection of bugs where you have no idea what the hell you're supposed to do. The rover is awful, and the missions are not intuitive, and as soon as you heal from radiation, you get killed by a ghost. 0.5/10

The game is not functioning properly. It does not respond to keyboard inputs, and changing the settings . As a result, I was unable to progress and remained stuck in the very first scene of the game.
