To The Moon is a spectacular, story-driven adventure that will make you weep and laugh. To me, it is the single most wonderful game I've ever played and to all those who want a great experience; buy this game. And play it. It's not the longest. But the journey is amazing.

The gameplay is fairly simple. Move through memories, find mementos that help you go further back in time, and complete puzzles to properly advance through the stages. It's nothing to write home about, but I found it enjoyable just the same.

The soundtrack is probably the best I've heard in a video game in a long time. The creator of this game did the entire soundtrack himself, and he did absolutely magnificent work. To The Moon could be a sound game, and it'd get by on this alone.

The story. To The Moon could be considered something of a visual novel. But it is the best damn visual novel that I've ever had the absolute pleasure of reading. The story in this is one of beauty. It'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry (a lot). And in the end, I think it may be one of the most fulfilling experiences you ever take.

I wanted to nominate To The Moon for a number of catagories. However you can only nominate a game for one. As such, I've nominated this game for the 'there's something in my eye' award. To The Moon is a beautiful experience, and I defy you not to cry at least once through its' many stages. This game is a thing of beauty, and on sale for far too cheap right now. If you can, buy it. It'll be an experience you don't regret.
