Momodora is a series of indie platformer video games developed by Guilherme "rdein" Martins and his studio Bombservice. The series follows several priestess heroines who utilize magic maple leaves as weapons against monsters and other cursed entities. The series consists of five games: Momodora I, Momodora II, Momodora III, Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight, and Momodora: Moonlit Farewell.[3][4][5]

The series takes place in an unnamed world inhabited by strange monsters and people. Dark, ruinous forces threaten the people of the land who resort to the ritual martyrdom of priestesses to propitiate evil. These evil forces and sacrifices serve as the main sources of conflict throughout the series.

The first two games in the series are short freeware titles exclusive to itch.io.[3] The third, fourth and fifth games in the series were released to Steam, where they saw comparatively greater popularity.
