About This Demo

🎮 ABOUT THIS GAME

Momogatari is a 2D action Metroidvania focused on expressive combat, constant adaptation, and mastery.

You play as Momotaro, a young warrior descending into Yomi, a dark realm of spirits, Yokai, and ancient Kami drawn from Japanese folklore.
Armed with a sacred weapon capable of instant sword switching, you must adapt your fighting style on the fly, overcome relentless enemies, and uncover the truth behind a curse threatening someone dear to you.
