Earthrise, also known as Earthrise: A Guild Investigation, is an adventure game developed by Matt Gruson and released for the PC in 1990 by Interstel. The player assumes the role of an astronaut sent to a moonbase to investigate why it has ceased communication. Like Sierra titles of the time, it used the combination of a text-based interface with EGA graphics.

Reception

Computer Gaming World reviewed Earthrise as "a clean, simple game with logically-constructed puzzles and a humorous touch". They rated the graphics as unspectacular and criticized the game's text parser as more trial-and-error in certain scenarios.[1]
