Moonlighter 2 Review – Is The Shopkeeping Roguelite Worth Playing?

Moonlighter 2 is essentially three games in one: a fast-paced action-roguelite, an inventory management puzzle game, and a shop sim where you have to convince people to buy burnt sticks and old wires for absurd prices. It’s a ridiculous setup, but as I've come to learn, one that's also a lot of fun.

So if you're curious about what Moonlight 2 has to offer, what it's roguelite combat looks like, what it's inventory tetris loot system is about, and what sort of issues the shopkeeping gameplay might have, this review will (hopefully) give you all the answers. So join me on this adventure as I analyze whether Moonlighter 2 is worth playing!
