VGChartz’s Evan Norris: “Thanks to publisher Atari and developer Dreams Uncorporated, Lunar Lander gets another chance to shine. The result of their collaboration, Lunar Lander Beyond, is a competent game, yet it could have been so much more. The story starts off strong, but doesn’t go anywhere truly exciting. Pilot trait and health mechanics begin with promise, but — outside of the “Insane” difficulty — don’t move the needle in a significant way. The level designs are enjoyable at first, but fail to evolve as things move forward. Really, the only area where the game consistently shines is art direction. That’s not to say Lunar Lander Beyond is mediocre or majorly deficient — it’s actually a fairly agreeable experience, with nice build variety and some intriguing nods to the rogue-like genre — but it feels only partially realized.”
