Moonlighter

Moonlighter, also known as the indie mix of dungeon crawling and shopkeeping, puts you in the shoes of Will—a merchant who dreams of becoming a hero. By day, you run your shop, setting prices and selling loot. By night, you explore dungeons, battle enemies, and hunt for rare treasures. Need a challenge? You got it.

What Is Moonlighter About?

Moonlighter blends action and strategy in a way that feels fresh. Managing a shop isn’t your typical side gig—it’s a key part of the gameplay loop. Every dungeon dive offers random layouts and new enemies, so no two adventures are the same. Lost your loot because you died? Lesson learned: always carry a spare sword.

Key Features

• Dual Gameplay: Explore dungeons at night, sell loot by day.
• Procedural Dungeons: Each run feels different thanks to randomized levels.
• Shop Management: Price items smartly to attract customers and grow your store.
• Crafting System: Use collected materials to upgrade weapons and gear.
• Varied Combat: Multiple weapons and playstyles to experiment with.
• Retro Pixel Art: Simple yet charming visuals that never get old.

Why Try Moonlighter?

If you’ve ever wanted to balance swinging a sword with counting coins, this game scratches that itch. It’s not about epic lore or massive boss battles alone—it’s about pacing yourself between danger and commerce. Plus, figuring out pricing strategies adds a neat layer you might not expect from a dungeon crawler.

It can get tricky fast. Deciding when to push deeper into dungeons or head back to sell loot makes each decision count. So, are you ready to be the merchant your fantasy town didn’t know it needed?
