I am amazed that it took me so long to find this. If you like adventure games like I wanna se the Moon, then you can think of this as a better version. While See the Moon is fantastic as well, this game upgrades the graphics to a whole new level and has the same feel to the game. While i disliked backtracking through the whole map to possibly try out a new idea, this is an incredibly minor issue to what the game does right. The bosses are fun and fair, platforming is fun and puzzles are interesting. Would absolutely reccomend to any player.

Also, check out denferok's other games, because after also playing Gothic Castle, I can see that this man understands how to make fun games.

A new favorite, hands down.

Denferok is one of the most important contributors to the site and almost every stage is full of detail and atmosphere. The caverns segments were a tad generic, but somewhat fun to play. The underground factory segment was a little bit annoying. The rest, however, was quite astonishing, non-repetitive and creative. Boss battles are breathtaking to such extent that I was very tempted to upload some screenshots about them since they are very representative of the game, but it is best to experience this blindfolded, unless someone decides to upload them. There is quite some brain work required during the puzzle solving which, thanks to the atmosphere and overall tone of the game, exponentialized by the great soundtrack, is never boring to execute.

In a way, and strangely enough, it made me miss in a nostalgic way an old-school favorite that I could never grasp: I Wanna See the Moon. That classic is clearly an inspiration. I love some old-school fun myself, but the maze repetitiveness, the cryptic parts and the awful visual design really put me off and made the experience frustrating. It was a long, ambitious adventure and I would never say there wasn't any heart put into it (it had a few great bits), but the result was a mess overall. The highlight was the "See the Moon" segment and, for some reason, it made me glad that this fangame paid tribute to that specific part towards the ending.

This is one of the nicest examples of how adventure fangames should be made in the exceedingly rare case that the homage subgenre of fangames such as IWBTG, IWBTB or I wanna Run the Marathon are not quite your cup of tea because you're looking for something more authentic and "original" (although, as artists, we are all stealers in a way; what matters is the new art you create with what you stole).

So far, this is one of the Top 50 fangames ever made.

Gimmick-based adventure game. The game combined different elements from a range of games, providing decent challenges along the way. The music choice is also brilliant. Recommended for playing for fun.

Brilliant adventure game.
Personally I don't like the puzzly platforming here and there in the game. The bosses are cool though. They gave me different and special experiences. I particularly like the final boss aka moon lord. Three stages keep you in tension and thrill all the time.
Would recommend playing this game for the bossfights.

There were so many puzzles that I couldn't really enjoy it. In particular, I was frustrated by puzzles that felt like they were designed to trick first-time players. It might be enjoyable for people who can have fun with puzzles that have a mean-spirited nature.
