The story of Momodora puts us in the role of Kaho, a young priestess that sets on a journey to fight a curse that is spreading across the land before it is completely engulfed by the darkness.
Momodora reverie under the moonlight wind magic series#
In fact, Reverie Under the Moonlight is not the first entry in the series, but the fourth one, though it is the first entry to adopt the Metroidvania formula, as the first three entries in the series were classic style 2D platform games (that you should also check out if you like that genre).
Yup, yup, you read that right, and if you keep reading, you will understand why. The discovery of Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight, which is the title of the game I’m going to talk about, has taken me back directly to the times where there was no internet or smartphones to allowed you to stay up to date with the latest news anywhere and anytime (yes, yes… I’m that old…), making me feel again the magic of the times when my dad use to take me to the local game store where you could discover all the new releases, and where I use to spend hours and hours checking the back side of the boxes, trying to figure out what the game would be like by looking at the couple of screenshots displayed in the box (yup, no HD trailers neither, just your imagination…) Good old times… But those were other times, and now is time for Momodora, so let’s see what this new jewel of the videogame indie scene has to offer, for it seems it has the potential to become a cult classic.ĭeveloped by an indie Brazilian team called Bombservice, Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight is 2D action-adventure game that belongs to the ever popular Metroidvania genre, and seasoned with a little bit of Dark Souls. Actually, I´m pretty surprised I never heard anything about this game before, for I’m one of those that checks the new and reviews on a daily basis, but I guess this is just one more proof of how much (and fast) the game industry keeps growing, making it more and more difficult to keep up with all the titles that are released month after month (and even more difficult to have time to play them all!), specially when most of the media seems to focus mainly in the titans of the industry.
It’s a game which existence I completely ignore up until now and that I discovered just by pure coincidence while I was checking around Steam, and oh boy it was love on first sight. Hello everybody! How are the giant robots combats going with Vanguard Bandits, the Tactic JRPG I talked about in last entry? Good? In this new entry I’m going to talk about a game that, despite having been released pretty recently, it could have been released easily at the same time that Vanguard Bandits almost 20 years ago now.
