Moonscars is a metroidvania action platform game set in a dark fantasy world. It was developed by Black Mermaid, an indie studio, and published by Humble Games.
We play as Grey Irma, a clay warrior who has one goal - she wants to find the Sculptor and reveal the secret of her existence. During her journey, she encounters many enemies as well as other beings searching for truth and purpose in these dark and dangerous realities.
The game is a side-scroller, in which we move on two-dimensional platforms in a non-linear world. We fight with numerous enemies, using sword, spells and unique special weapons. Along with the progress we also gain new skills useful during battles. The developers focused on a high level of difficulty, assuming that the player will die often and the trial and error method will lead him to success.
The game features dark pixel art graphics and dynamic animations.

Game Ratings for Moonscars Video Game.
GameSpew: 7 / 10 by Richard Seagrave
Whether you’re into challenging Soulslikes or sprawling Metroidvanias, there’s a lot to like about Moonscars. Its atmosphere is thick thanks to its moody visuals and soundtrack, while its moment-to-moment gameplay is utterly engrossing once it has its hooks in you. If you’re up to the task and can accept that the experience won’t always feel fair, this is a game well worth sinking some time into.
WellPlayed: 7.5 / 10 by James Wood
Moonscars brings a deeply satisfying core combat loop and exciting art direction to the Soulslike genre, even if it has some teething issues with its overlapping systems and narrative.
Gaming Nexus: 6.5 / 10 by Joseph Moorer
If you've played any other Metroidvania game, you can easily pass this one up. It means well, and Grey Irma is a beast, but with a convoluted story and characters you will never care about, dying over and over is probably the best part of the game. Beautiful game. Questionable story. "Every death makes you stronger." goes the tagline. I question where the strength actually goes. Slash, slash, dodge.
