94/100

Luna: The Shadow Dust is a masterpiece of visual storytelling. As a point-and-click puzzle adventure, it stands out by completely eschewing dialogue. Every emotion and plot point is conveyed through hand-drawn animation and a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack.

The puzzles are clever and deeply integrated into the environment. Playing as both a young boy and his mysterious animal companion requires you to think about how they can cooperate to overcome obstacles. It feels like playing through a Studio Ghibli film—atmospheric, melancholic, and ultimately hopeful. It's a premium experience that is worth every penny.
