'Minoria' Gets Release Date - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on July 31, 2019 @ 8:11 a.m. PDT

Minoria is an action/platformer where you venture forth as Sister Semilla to burn down the pillars of heresy.

Ink and blood stain the streets of Ramezia. The story takes place during the fourth Witch War. It is a time of fanatical religious fervor. The Sacred Office, a powerful organization leading an Inquisition against heresy, purges the sinners who threaten humanity. Those responsible for conducting a mysterious ceremony that contradicts the rules of the Church are labeled “witches.”

Set forth with Sisters Semilla and Fran, missionaries in the Church’s service, on their journey to thwart the witches’ ceremony and protect the common-folk from heresy that endangers the status quo.

Fans of Momodora will find familiar aspects in the design and gameplay elements as they master the ins-and-outs of parries, dodges, and a variety of different spells. The presentation has evolved to an HD format, with aesthetics mixing 2D hand-painted backgrounds and cel-shaded characters. 


Minoria creator, rdein, has stated, “For the first time in many years, I started a game project set in a new universe. It felt like a breath of fresh air for me. With that said, Minoria does contain some similarities with my previous projects (especially Momodora’s latest installment, Reverie Under the Moonlight). I am proud of what we’ve been making for Minoria, and I hope you will enjoy the story and characters I’ve prepared this time around!”

Minoria’s release represents Bombservice's first exclusive release with DANGEN Entertainment and the studio’s fifth game, providing fans of the Momodora series a spiritual sequel after Minoria was first announced at Tokyo Game Show 2018.
