### 2/5 — Controls need Update

*2026-05-30, version 1.13.43*

This game was great and all. However it is in desperate need of an update. Right now, you can’t move around at all.

### 2/5 — Potential

*2026-05-01, version 1.13.43*

The Shop mechanics are too tedious to allow this game to be fun.

### 3/5 — No controller option

*2026-04-09, version 1.13.43*

This game would be so much better if it actually let you play with a controller

### 3/5 — Cool game but too many bugs.

*2026-04-05, version 1.13.43*

I played the through all the dungeons and final bosses overall I enjoyed the game but the amount of glitches was insane. Most of the icons for all my weapons would disappear and never come back. Even on one of the last battles I had to restart the game because after I killed the boss we respawned but we both couldn’t damage each other. Yea 6.7/10

### 2/5 — As buggy as everyone else says

*2026-01-24, version 1.13.43*

I put about 120min into this game. I liked the way it was playing. There was a nice farm-to-action ratio, and the selling is a 2 of 5 interesting mechanic. But the game is mostly bugs. The loading screen of death sent me to this review space.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2026-01-19, version 1.13.43*

Game crashed within 10 seconds, tried again and it let me get through the first cutscene and then  it wouldn’t let me move, only attack. You’d think they’d have fixed the game by now if they are going to continue to offer it.

### 2/5 — DONT GET YOUR HOPES UP

*2026-01-18, version 1.13.43*

I love the game and it looks beautiful but I couldn’t play it after I exited the game. I played the game for 3 hours straight then closed the game on my phone, and when I went back to play it just stuck me on the loading screen. This game was fun for the three hours I played it, but not being able to go back was the worse part. Moonlighter is a great game and has a complete version and a sequel if you like the concept ,but they do cost money. I would say don’t download this version and get the complete version for only a few bucks.

### 4/5 — same as others :(

*2026-01-16, version 1.13.43*

Great game! So fun but like most other reviews mu save’s stuck on the loading screen for over two weeks so far. I only got to second door though so at least I didn’t sink too much time into it

### 3/5 — Fun but buggy

*2026-01-13, version 1.13.43*

Nice game, but buggier than an ant hill. Enchantments vanish the icons and don’t show in stats; picking up weapons duplicates the icons but, by pointer glitch, selling one sells all of them. But after restarting the unlink becomes an infinite money glitch. And others. Theres no pause or save buttons, so expect to loose progress occasionally. Also, around the end of the first dungeon the game gets dull with nothing left to do or buy.

### 1/5 — Can’t Move

*2025-12-23, version 1.13.43*

Unless using charge

### 2/5 — outrageously buggy, semi-interesting concept

*2025-12-17, version 1.13.43*

interesting concept of a game with a lot of potential, but without more lore or places to go/discover, the gameplay loop gets boring fast. 

i’ve also never played a game with this many bugs. for prospective gamers, play this game with the mindset that there’s a decent chance you’ll run into a bug that forces you to restart and lose all progress. also, netflix support is zero help in the matter. they’re unable to restore your items that sometimes disappear or provide meaningful fixes to other issues. 

to the developers, because netflix says there’s nowhere to report bugs: weapon item icons go invisible seemingly at random, which makes the game’s inventory management mechanic quite frustrating at times. i’ve also just force restarted the game after trying a dungeon and am now stuck on a loading screen that never ends. a lot of the time when you switch from one weapon to another and try to use that weapon’s special move, nothing happens. also, you should make the attack/roll/weapon switch buttons slightly see-through when your character is in the lower right of the screen because it’s impossible to see what you’re fighting down there otherwise.

### 1/5 — Fun but super buggy

*2025-12-03, version 1.13.43*

Fun game to play however, items disappear. Upgrade/enchant your weapons, go to the dungeon and half way through the weapon disappears. Items get duplicated… frustrating to say the least. I have to walk away from this promising yet bugged experience.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-11-26, version 1.13.43*

This game does not work at all  all of the buttons dont work! Its super broken please fix it!!

### 1/5 — Great except for the data losing, game ending bug.

*2025-09-13, version 1.13.43*

Was really enjoying this, read the reviews that said it will eventually lock up and stop loading. Well.. here we are and it says if I uninstall I lose all my data. Not sure how to fix it but it is a shame because the game is fun.

### 1/5 — $@&$$

*2025-09-06, version 1.13.43*

STUPID GAME NO BUTTONS WORK I HATE THIS

### 3/5 — Great game with a lot of bugs

*2025-08-13, version 1.13.43*

I love this game it’s great I love playing it but it seems like the more I play it the more bugs develop. Like I can’t or enchanted my weapons and armour. And when I go check my inventory it’s just not there. If I click on it it goes back into my bag where I can see it but when I equip it it disappears and I can’t enchant it either cause it just doesn’t show up.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-21, version 1.13.43*

I downloaded the game and was able to load it, but I’m unable to move my character using tap or joystick controls. I know it used to work so I guess something broke since the last time I played.

### 1/5 — Broken???

*2026-07-13, version 1.13.43*

Pretty charming while it worked for a while but my character woke up for a game day and I couldn't move!!! Bummer

### 1/5 — Already Encountered a Bug

*2026-07-01, version 1.13.43*

I just started playing and I chose analog instead of tap. Guess what, THE ANALOG DOESN’T WORK! Reading the reviews, yeah, Netflix games are a buggy mess.

### 1/5 — Keeps freezing

*2026-06-24, version 1.13.43*

I’ve had to restart 3x because the game kept crashing in the tutorial. I hope they fix it

### 1/5 — Great game if it worked.

*2026-06-16, version 1.13.43*

The game is fun but so buggy. Enchantments make the items disappear or replace others. Moving items can cause them to be deleted. The game currently will not open after it deleted my training spear +++ and created 3 useless training bows instead. I’d be ashamed of releasing such a bug ridden piece of software. Get a damn QA team’

### 1/5 — Unplayable on Phone

*2026-06-01, version 1.13.43*

This might be fun to play with a proper control system but it is unplayable for me at least on the iPhone . By the fifth room you’re fighting enemies and you can’t get your guy to face them so he can use his attack. Unfortunate, mug by have been fun.

### 1/5 — I don’t understand the controls

*2026-05-03, version 1.13.43*

Spent 20 minutes trying to figure this game out and it’s still not working. Please add better instructions at the beginning.

### 1/5 — Won’t Load

*2026-04-13, version 1.13.43*

Lost all my progress. Tried all the usual fixes but to no avail.

### 1/5 — No controller support

*2026-04-05, version 1.13.43*

Controller doesn’t work on this game

### 1/5 — Cannot move

*2026-03-31, version 1.13.43*

Literally cannot move right from the tutorial, tried both joystick and touch movement doesn’t work. Nothing except the spear charge works

### 5/5 — De no mamar

*2026-02-21, version 1.13.43*

Pocos juegos están tan completos como lo es este juego la neta, me divertí mucho, muchas gracias

### 5/5 — 무한로딩및 각종 버그

*2026-02-10*

아무리 문의해도 고치지않는거보면 그냥 관리도안하는듯 넷플릭스라는 기업 이름값이아깝다 플랫폼을 걸고하질 말던지 나온지 오래된 게임이기도하고 안하면 그만이긴한데 여러명이 컴플레인하는데도 방치 수준인거보니 회사수준이 이정도 밖에안되나싶네요

### 5/5 — Request

*2026-02-01*

Moonlighter (Netflix Edition) delivers a polished and highly engaging experience on mobile. The seamless blend of dungeon-crawling combat and shop-management mechanics feels both unique and well balanced. Combat is responsive, progression is rewarding, and the pixel art and soundtrack add strong atmosphere. Performance on mobile is smooth, and the Netflix edition offers a complete, premium experience without intrusive monetization.

Request:
Since Moonlighter 2 already exists on PC, a mobile port would be greatly appreciated. The gameplay translates perfectly to touch controls, and this edition proves that Moonlighter belongs on mobile.

### 5/5 — Add The DLC!!!!!!!!!

*2025-08-17, version 1.13.43*

ADD THE DLC

### 5/5 — Partida no carga

*2025-01-20*

Me ayudan, entro a la app y al momento de dar click en cargar partida o continuar, se queda en pantalla negra y con el icono verde cargando.

🥲

### 5/5 — It’s fixed!

*2024-12-21, version 1.13.43*

Thanks for updating so it no longer crashes and gets permanently stuck!
Great game, lots of fun, love it

### 5/5 — Lo amo de Netflix el mejor

*2024-11-21*

Este juego si vale la pena es un mundo abierto muy completo y divertido

### 5/5 — Splendid rogue like! But…

*2024-10-01, version 1.13.38*

I’m not a big game person myself, but I find this game truly delightful from the individual rapport between random npcs at town to the robust selling mechanics in the moonlighter. However, it is very frustrating I’ve been having several problems:

1. I’ve opened the game just to see “new game” as if I never started playing and have to turn my phone off or wait a while for it to come back???

2. THE CRASHING I’ve got an iPhone 12 Pro Max and the game keeps randomly crashing sometimes minutes after opening the game sometimes an hour after, truly mentally trying. 

3. Thirdly, when moving a weapon to and from the secondary slot I’ve had it duplicate on multiple occasions, once leaving me with 5 full spaces with duplicate weapons, as well as being really confusing when I want to enchant one, if I sell one, they’re all gone the next time I open the game, this is the most aggravating bug, and one I’d really like to see addressed ASAP

Other than that the game is splendid and I can see the passion put into it (or the grueling hours?) I would REALLY like to see it flourish.

### 5/5 — 게임은 너무 재밌는데 크래시랑 오류가...

*2024-09-21*

^^... 중간에 뻑나는건 기본이고 어느순간부터 접속 안돼서 데이터 다 날렸는데도 게임이 재밌어서 처음부터 두번이나다시함 근데.. 또 초기화 오류나서 아직도 엔딩을 못봄ㅋ....

### 5/5 — 잘만들긴 했는데

*2024-09-14*

진짜 너무잘만들고 하나부터 열까지 게임 자체에는 다 만족을 라는데 왜 자꾸 튕기고 튕기다보면 게임이 들어가지지도 않는 현상이 자꾸 발생하는지 모르겠습니다
삭제했다가 다운받으니 데이터도 드 삭제되었고요..
어떻게 해결이 안되는건가요
