Moonlighter was not very good. It's a game that only has to be good at two things, and it was not good at either of them. The combat is terrible, but that would have been okay if the storefront aspect was good. It's a game about being a shopkeeper, after all. But running the store might be worse than the combat! There's absolutely nothing to it. I'm also not a fan of the art style. Still, this is not one of the worst games I've ever played. It was just one of the more personally disappointing ones.

I totally agree with you. I really wanted to love it, I thought the idea seemed pretty cool but I ended up dropping it after about an hour.

This was actually my third attempt to play it. The first two times I played it, it went similarly to how it went for you. I still haven't found the game that fulfills my shopkeep dreams. Maybe someday.
