Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. Truthfully, I don’t remember all the ins and outs of To The Moon's [official site] lackadaisical storytelling, but perhaps that is funny in itself, considering how important decaying memory is to the tale. But the enduring feeling of the game is one of…

I am going back and playing one of my favourite games this weekend, RPS readers, one of those games I return to once every year or so to remind myself why I play games. I'm going to smile, I'm probably going to cry, I'm going to throw myself back into To The Moon. To The Moon is one of those games you can just tell was…

They said it would never end. And then, on Saturday, it did. We've been posting our series of chats with the many splendid finalists in this year's Independent Games Festival over the last couple of months, and, with the exception of English Country Tune (dev was worried about sounding boring), Mirage (dev didn't reply) and Fez (dev wouldn't confirm the possibility of a PC version)…
Feature: Freebird Games does the chat
And so my semi-exhaustive attempt to chat to the makers of (almost) all the PC/Mac-based games which are nominated for Independent Games Festival awards this year continues. This time, it's one of the boy Walker's favourite games of last year, the backwards-storytelling, thoughtful sci-fi, and heartstring-pulling that is To The Moon. This point'n'click adventure is up for the Excellence in Audio prize. Here, Freebird Games'…

As we gather 'round the open fire, roasting our chestnuts if we sit a little too close, it's not unusual for conversation to turn to Christmases past. Remember the time when that bike-shaped parcel underneath the tree wasn't for you at all but actually contained Uncle Marty's new Zimmer frame and a couple of oversized hubcaps for his Robin Reliant? How we laughed! You enjoyed…

As you may have noticed, we love To The Moon - a genuinely wonderful adventure game about memory, love and relational disorder. John's going on about it caused Adam to play, and so we've sat down to have a chat about how it hit us. The discussion below contains spoilers right to the very end of the game, so we strongly encourage you to play…
To the Moon, the indie RPG/adventure game from Freebird Games John's previously talked about with a soundtrack from Laura Shigihara off of Plants vs Zombies has a release date, soundtrack and trailer. Which happens to be quite the thing, if you'll see below.
Here's what I'd like to see/hear. An adventure game whose music doesn't begin with a long strained note on a violin. Seriously, every single one does it now. Nothing wrong with it - I'd just like some variation. Joining their numbers is To The Moon - a sort of RPG adventure thing that attracted me by its excellent name, and then - as it happens…
