Dark Side of the Moon: A Sci-Fi Adventure

About

Dark Side of the Moon: A Sci-Fi Adventure places you in the role of Jake Wright, who inherits mineral rights to the planet Luna Crysta after his uncle’s mysterious death. The game tasks you with exploring the planet’s surface, solving puzzles, and interacting with characters to figure out the truth. Point-and-click mechanics guide your investigation through dialogue options and environmental challenges. Progress depends on connecting story threads and navigating corporate and alien threats. Released in 1998, this PC adventure channels late-90s point-and-click design with a sci-fi setting. Though largely forgotten, it offers a straightforward mystery with a focus on resource disputes and familial secrets. The game’s attempt to blend space exploration with personal stakes sets it apart, even if its graphics and pacing show their age. For those curious about early 2000s adventure games, it’s a brief but functional example of the genre.
