This beautifully crafted game brings renowned author Tove Jansson’s beloved world of Moomin to life, inviting players on a wonder-evoking journey filled with thoughtful stories and touching, emotional moments.

“Millions of readers of all ages have fallen in love with the Moomin stories. For them, this game will offer a new take on the familiar characters, in situations which could have taken place in the original stories, but which are coming to life in a new, stunning setting”, said Roleff Kråkström, Managing Director of Moomin Characters.

“At the same time, the game is a wonderful introduction of the characters to audiences who are not familiar with the Moomins, and who will surely find their favourites among the cast.”
