It wasn’t until I started to really get a grip on the combat mechanics and traversal that Momodora clicked for me. “Combat and movement is very smooth and satisfying with responsive controls and wonderful animation.”
In essence, it’s all it needs to be and nothing more. The story itself is fairly thin, but this isn’t really a bad thing, it’s just enough to keep you engaged and wanting to finish the adventure. Characters who unfortunately don’t get fleshed out much. Story moments are fleshed out via short dialogue scenes with NPCs you meet along the way and those NPCs are actually made up of some initially intriguing characters. You’re thrown into the story immediately playing as a young priestess named Kaho, who is on a journey to the Kingdom of Karst in order to squash the spreading of a horrible curse. Releasing on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 for the first time, Momodora is about to earn some new fans and a much wider audience, deservingly so. It’s a prequel to the original game to boot, making it a perfect place for new players to dive in. Released in 2016 on Steam, Momodora is actually the fourth game in a series that I had no clue even existed but am sincerely glad to have rectified.
Momodora: Reverie Under The Moonlight (referred to as Momodora from here on out) is a “Metroidvania” style adventure and also a perfect example of why I should pay more attention to my PC when it comes to gaming.
