About
NASA, 1969
You did it! You finally landed an internship at NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space ... Association? Agency? Authority? You're not really sure what the last "A" stands for, but it's only your first day. You're pretty certain you'll figure it out soon enough.
After a whirlwind tour of NASA headquarters, which you are sure you've already completely forgotten, you are ushered into the office of your new boss: the director of NASA's Apollo program. You heard recently that we're ready to send a man to the moon. You can scarcely believe it! It's like something out of science fiction. Nervously, you wait to be called into the inner office...

MoonShot is a modern text adventure game, where you interact with the story through your choices. Whether or not you remember the old Infocom games, this should be fun and playable.

Charming and educational. I had no idea how much we owe to NASA's hardworking interns. MoonShot can be completed (at least one "main" ending out of the 9 available) in 60-90 minutes (I have 3 endings and about half the achievements at that time, so probably about twice that to 100% the game). If you liked the classic Infocom games and want something silly and snack-sized, this is for you.
So excited for this game! I completed the story in about an hour stumbling upon 3 endings. The highlighted text and autocomplete features were really helpful in exploring the options and easily navigating the mechanisms of this text adventure game. I love the little snarky bits and delightful commentary. I will be playing through again to complete/discover all the options/endings. Highly recommend!
Awesome game, really fun, lots of jokes. Was able to get 4 endings in around an hour or so. English is not my first language and I was able to navigate the game easily and enjoy it. Gonna try getting all the endings.
Having only played about a dozen or so interactive fiction games, MoonShot stands out in a positive way to me. I like the absurdism, and how the gameplay fonts and graphics directly reflect that chaotic sense of humor. The writing is engaging and I really liked having the ability to choose from a drop-down menu, which is something that is missing from older, classic text adventure games and which I think makes them pretty intimidating by comparison to MoonShot. Can't wait to get all the endings!
