Creature Shock vs Moon Chronicles

In 2123 humanity sends the UNS Amazon to find new worlds as Earth collapses. After the ship disappears near Saturn, the player, Commander Jason Barr, leads a rescue team to uncover the mystery and survive alien threats. The game blends first‑person shooting with full‑motion video storytelling, set on asteroid surfaces and underground mazes. The experience includes two 3D sections where you pilot the ship, and every alien has a specific weak point to exploit. With arcade‑style action and horror‑themed encounters, Creature Shock delivers a retro sci‑fi shooter experience.

Moon Chronicles revives the classic DS shooter Moon as an episodic experience on the 3DS eShop. The game delivers a gritty science‑fiction narrative with horror‑infused atmospheres and fast‑paced action. The single‑player campaign is split into distinct episodes, each introducing new enemy types, boss encounters, and story twists, all wrapped in retro‑style graphics optimized for handheld play.
