1980年に発売された「ムーンクレスタ」は、これまでの「ムーンエイリアン」シリーズとはまったく異なり、合体という新しいフィーチャーを取り入れ成功したゲーム史上に残る名作である。自機は1号機、2号機、3号機と呼ばれ、それぞれ単体での攻撃が可能で、全ての機体が合体した時点で最強の装備となる。そしてこのゲームのもう一つの特徴は、敵の攻撃は全て体当たりによるもので、弾が全く存在しないことである。後に合体システムは、同社テラクレスタでも採用されることとなる。店側にとっても既存の「ギャラクシアン」の基板を改造するだけでよかったため、ヒットに繋がる要因となった。それまでコピー作品ばかりを作っていた日本物産だが、この作品のヒットにより逆に無断コピーされるなど、これまでの形が逆転することになり、アメリカではセガ・グレムリン社が許諾販売を行うことになった。

Moon Cresta (c) 1980 Nichibutsu.

MOON CRESTA is a 1 or 2-player game in which players may compete for highest score against the game computer. Each time a player is hit by an alien, the game switches to his opponent's sequence.

The object is to destroy as many of the descending aliens as possible. To accomplish this the player is given a three stage multi-fire Warship. He begins with the first stage, firing a single laser at the enemy. If he is successful in eliminating the first 4 sets of aliens, he is given an opportunity to dock his first stage onto the second within a specific time limit (the sooner he unites the stages, the higher is his awarded score).

Once docked, the stages combine their firing power, so the first (1 laser) adds to the second (2 lasers) giving the player a total of 3 usable lasers as the game continues.

The player then must face 2 more sets of aliens and a shower of meteors, after which he has a chance to dock again, this time uniting with the third stage for a combined fire power of five lasers. If he is able to defeat the last two sets of aliens intact, the entire sequence begins again. The game continues with increasing difficulty until the entire warship is destroyed. When the warship is hit the player continues with whatever stages remain. If his score reaches 30,000 he is awarded a free game and his score continues to accumulate.

Scoring in this game is relatively simple. Each alien (except meteors and arrows) come in two different colors for each screen.
Eyes (Break in half) : 50 points
Eyes (Destroy other half) : 100 points
Flies : 30 points
Birds : 60 points
Fireballs : 200 points

Docking is a big way to increase your score. You get the time remaining from 30 seconds multiplied by 100 for your docking bonus.
