Moon Minions is another great game by Gigas, the maker of the LOF Series.

The presentation of this game was overall very well done. All the info you need is posted right there for you to read, which was beneficial since I never look at readme's.

The title screen was also interesting the first time I saw it.

As for gameplay, you have to be fast. The slower your reflexes and timing, the less attacks you get. This surprisingly adds something to the gameplay, making it more challenging, but if you have slow reflexes(or bad mouse control skills) I'd imagine you'd be frusterated. The way you pull one of your 3 monsters out of what appear to be balls reminds me of the Pokemon games I used to play.

The graphics are by far, amazing, as is typical to all of Gigas's games. Although some do look very weird, they're all pretty and interesting to look at, and they're all unique, smacking of (odd)commercial quality.

The sound and music was also good. I found the music really fit the theme of the game, but I did recognize a bunch of it from games he's previously released. The sound was also good, although the healing sound is a bit too loud for my liking, especially when 2 heals are playing at the same time.

This game has quite high lastability.(for a klik-game, atleast.

) I found myself playing it for several hours. Quite an accomplishment. After you've defeated all the bosses though, it kinda just ends, and gets rather boring levelling after that, so you'll probably quit then.

Overall, this game is quite impressive, and definately one you'll want to download. Although the 9.3mb is rather hefty for people on dialup, if you have dsl or cable you definately won't want to miss another great title by Gigas!
