FAQ
Is Lunar Limit free to play here?
Yes. Pubby released it under the MIT license, and this page hosts that ROM.
Why is the screen so busy?
That is the point of the game. Pubby built it to put an unusually large number of objects on screen for an NES.
Are there cheat codes?
No published cheat pack. Save-states are in the emulator menu.
Can I play it on a phone?
Yes. The on-screen pad maps to the D-pad, A, and B. Landscape is easier.
