Game mechanics

Momodora: Moonlit Farewell features side-scrolling action. Moving through various stages, Momo jumps on platforms and avoids numerous traps, as well as faces enemies. Apart from regular opponents, on her way there are also huge bosses, which can be defeated only by learning their weak points.

During the dynamic fights we have to show dexterity and reflexes, efficiently performing evasions and making quick counterattacks, as well as combining attacks in murderous combinations. Momo eliminates enemies using cold weapon and also by using bow. As we progress, we earn special seals, which not only increase the protagonist's combat potential, but also allow us to adjust her fighting style to individual preferences.
