About

"Momodora I is the first game in the Momodora series. It's very old and really unpolished, so it's advised to play the sequels instead.

It's meant to be challenging like an "arcade" game. I hope you enjoy it!

Cover artwork was drawn by Temmie Chang."

Storyline

"In the land of Koho, common are the sacrifices of maidens,
in hope of recreating the world as a better place to live.
Not all accept the rituals, though.
An orphan girl, who has lost her mother to these rituals,
entered a forbidden land, in search of a particular item.
The legends say that this sacred item can even
bring the dead back to life, but for a certain price..."
