We discover dark hidden secrets on Mars while we also begin to see and hear things that aren’t there. However, no one has expected that this day will become very strange. Many things are starting to fall apart and it’s time for Shane to start off his workday. Not soon after Shane’s first cup of freshly brewed coffee, we discover strange and unusual setbacks: the security system is on lockdown, the greenhouse is flooded, and there is Martian dust leaking into the infirmary.
But the game truly begins after Shane wakes up from his eerie nightmare that weirdly seems more like a premonition of the upcoming day. The player gets the chance to get familiar with the controls right away by walking around and exploring parts of the base. Seeing Shane’s security clearance, he is completely unaware of the core of the researches that are going on at the base. Shane’s job as a technician is simply to keep the place up and running until the transport ship Cyrano arrives, bringing with it a new team to take over his duties.
You play as Shane Newehart, a technician who is stationed - along with other Orochi scientists - at Invictus, a state-of-the-art research outpost on Mars. Be prepared to explore Mars, solve problems, and encounter malicious entities. Very story-driven and mostly comparable to games like Call of Cthulhu and The Sinking City. Moons of Madness’ gameplay is a mixture of SOMA, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and Outlast, giving us a first-person horror adventure in space, sprinkled with some Lovecraftian sci-fi ambience.
