Publisher Indie.io and developer Cosmoscouts have announced a release date for Moon Mystery, their new sci-fi first-person adventure game.

Moon Mystery is set to launch for Windows PC (via Steam) on October 28th.

“Moon Mystery is the kind of game we always wanted to play”, remarked Mikołaj Szymanowski, founder and lead designer of the game. “A single-player, story-centric adventure game with unique puzzles – how do you move in zero gravity with no thrusters, but a gun in your hand? – and interactive scenes players have never experienced before. Have you ever fallen into a black hole?”

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:

The Moon. Our closest celestial neighbor. A place full of mystery and strange things. That’s right, there’s more than just rocks and impossible challenges out there. A lone astronaut is about to learn that first hand, when he loses contact with Earth and begins an interstellar odyssey across the universe

Moon Mystery is a first-person shooter adventure full of puzzles, action, set on strange new worlds. The gray rocks of the Moon are just the first step on a great journey. Fill up your oxygen tanks, top up your magazines, and get ready for a long trip. You won’t be seeing Earth for a while.
