Moon Mine is an action game that's exclusive to the Texas Instruments TI-99/4A.
+ There's a real sense of dread and vulnerability when your crew member leaves the ship, as he only has 12 laser shots.
+ Being able to switch between vertical and horizontal lasers (each with unique abilities) gives you deeper attack options.
+ Rapid fire overheats your laser, so the action adopts a more careful, strategic approach that rewards skilled play.
+ The Speech Synthesizer module contains many memorable lines and the mocking voice of Zygonaut is golden.
- Takes too long to get back into the action once you've obtained an item, as the on-screen text keeps you waiting.
- Nothing new is added to the gameplay after the first couple of minutes, so enjoyment can be rather short-lived.
