Moonlighter is a rogue-like action-RPG with a twist. You assume the role of Will, a shopkeeper who ventures into the dungeons. All the items you find down there are yours to sell at your store, Moonlighter. The gold earned is used to upgrade the village, the store you own, and yourself with new weapons and armours, as well as potions to help you along the way. If you falter, you lose all the items you have collected.
Along with a wealth of gold to be made, there is crafting, using items found in the dungeons, and plenty of armours to be had (head, body, and legs). There are also different weapon classes to master and craft. Lastly, an array of enemies and bosses to fight, assuming you are quick enough. Moonlighter is quite a challenge.
Scoring on overall average of 81% on OpenCritic, Moonlighter has plenty to offer as a game. As of today, 22nd December 2018, Digital Sun Games announced a patch being released. We will highlight what we believe to be the biggest changes.
