Indie publisher PLAYISM along with Bombservice have released on Steam, Momodora: Moonlit Farewell, the climatic release in the Metroidvania Momodora series.
Since 2010, Bombservice has been developing the 2D exploration-heavy and action-filled Momodora series. The first game in the series, Momodora I, was released on August 8th, 2010, on Itch.io and has since grown to a total of five entries in the series with the latest installment.
Featuring a gorgeous 2D world of pixel art animations, the game offers plenty of opportunities to explore the atmospheric world’s rich lore. Difficulty levels are freely adjustable, allowing players to relax and explore at their own pace. A “Sigil” system allows players to customizable their play style.
When the time is right, players can take on mighty foes or increase the difficulty for an even greater challenge against enemy threats.

The game’s story takes place five years after the events of Momodora III. Demons are flooding the world after being summoned by the ringing of a mysterious bell. A high priestess of Koho Village named Momo has embarked on a journey to rid the world of these demons. To accomplish this task, Momo will need to explore the rich fantasy world while using her flashy attacks and Sigils to purify the demons. Along the way untold secrets may even be revealed.
