The title is a play on A Hard Day's Night. Moonstone's gameplay blends several different genres, including strategy, real time fighting and role-playing video games. It allows up to four players to participate in a basic turn based Role Playing Game with real time combat for any encounters. It is also notable as one of the goriest games of its time, with some exceptionally bloody fight and death scenes.

While there's some decent animations and a visceral feel to the combat, it just gets too repetitive due to the lack of depth or variety. The overworld doesn't really do much here to make things more interesting other than randomizing encounters on subsequent playthroughs, but that would require the aforementioned combat to be worth revisiting.

Probably one of the best commodore/amiga games to be played. Recommended to play on Amiga so you dont have to swap floppies all the time.
