What Makes MementoMori: AFKRPG Stand Out
“All roads lead to our ‘Goodbye.’”
Boasting an epic soundtrack that can turn the world of gaming on its head, and some of the most stunning designs ever seen in a game, Bank of Innovation’s newest title, MementoMori, is finally here!
Songs performed by many renowned artists enhance the rich world of MementoMori.
*We recommend playing while wearing earphones or headphones.
◆ STORY:
A tale of “justice” woven by girls whose fragile hearts verge on shattering…
There are girls who many call “witches.”
Although they themselves are ordinary, they can wield slightly extraordinary powers.
However, when calamity spreads throughout the land, witches begin to be feared and detested.
Before long, the Church of Longinus commenced what would be known as “The Witch Hunt.”
“Witches are to blame for this calamity. If we kill them, then the calamity will vanish along with them!”
Witches are executed one by one.
But one day, as madness seizes control of the world, it is suddenly overrun by “Curses.”
A country incinerated by hellfire. A kingdom consumed by crystals. An empire purged by the Tree of Life.
Such are the woeful desires of those who are called “Witches of Qlipha.”
Without any means to defend themselves, nation after nation falls into ruin, until finally—
The fractured land is sent adrift high into the sky.
Meanwhile, the people have yet to take notice.
From within these girls cursed to be witches, there emanates glimmers of hope.
In order to save their decimated world, these girls set forth liberating the land from darkness.
For they believe that it is the right thing to do…

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Man, we were so happy that we saw this game was still around because other Gacha games we played in the past no longer exist, but this one is still allowed and Im so happy we came back to this. We love how every character has their own song.
You need to download this urgently, it's the best game we've ever seen or played.
This is an idle gacha game and in terms of a story it doesnt really have one. The art, music and voice acting is good but mechanically there isnt a whole lot going on. We enjoyed it the little amount we played but its not something we personally find too entertaining. It does what it aims for well at the very least as an idle game.
We first saw the ratings and looked at the descriptions, and we were already pleased enough to give it a shot. So, before we go deeper, let us add a little something about ourselves when it comes to these types of games. Ive never been into the storylines, ever, we just skipped everything and flew through tutorials to figure the gameplay out ourselves, since we focus more on that than storylines. But, actually, we didnt skip the storyline this time. And we sincerely dont regret it at all, because we absolutely love it so far. The soft, pleasing art, mixed with the storylines and beautiful music (the music made us fall in LOVE! Our favorite one is one of the first songs we get, Everglow, and we listen to it everyday because of how beautiful it is). Plus, we get a lot of free gems, and the rates have been either very lucky for us or really fair. Either way, impatience is what usually causes spending real $$$, and its just not necessary for this game. Ive had no problem at all. This deserves a 5 for us. (pt.2): but here is where the however comes in. The game really IS beautifulemotional music, captivating visuals, engaging story. The thing is its missing a lot on gameplay. There isnt very much to do; you get stuck on campaign or towers, and you really cant do anything but wait until next days. Also? When we said the rates were very lucky or very fair? They were just lucky at first. We saved for a few months doing everything we possibly could. All 40k gems got us were two of the amber-element limited character that we wanted. Did we simultaneously get other of the basic-but-equal-ascension-level characters? Yes. But that was hardly fair after all the effort, patience or not. So overall, we think some things need to be tweaked (gacha rates and evolved gameplay qualities). Still a very lovely game overall, but sometimes its sad when effort doesnt pay off the way you sincerely hoped it would. We guess as real adults would do, ill get over it and move on. (still keeping the game for the music, though.).
ALOT of the girls are like maybe 15 years old, and your character is developing relationships with them on some level. Implied to kinda be like a harem. They are girls, so that is very very wrong.
A refreshing game with an awesome art style. Also has an amazing pity system, very f2p friendly.
From the music of the game to its art, the entire game is aesthetically pleasing. Very well done. We especially love the music. It goes so well and feels like an anime theme song. They get an Excellent score in this area. The gameplay has the typical leveling up and tower challenge type game modes that we feel is a popular theme in most if not all app games. Of course they have their own way of going about it. For that they get an average score on gameplay. They definitely have a story, but im not interested in story with these type games, so we cant give an adequate rating. Overall out of 10 with 1 being trash and 10 being perfectly addictive fun. We give this game an 8. We think establishing a chat or some way the community can interact with each other would increase the level of fun. Other than that this game is well done. Good job.
Ive played this game for about a year and a half, with two accounts and the art is BEAUTIFUL!!! The animation is also really good. Each character has their own song and around 8 chapters for a backstory that you unlock as you level them up. We play with the JP voice actors, and the voices are also very high quality. However, this is a afk game so after the first few levels, you really only log in once a day unless your spamming skips on main story stages to get crystals. You dont do ANYTHING for the battles. You just, like, watch for around a minute of repeated animations and voice lines for the characters. We were hoping there could be a more interactive feature in the game? So, Ive been thinking of something to make this game more interactive, and maybe you guys could work on a house designing feature? Nothing super big, or detailed, just one room or two and you can unlock more as you level up. We only say this because your basically a duke who owns a manor, so it would make sense to be able to make your own! And you could have players visit each others manors and stuff. In addition, we understand that 2.5d is very time consuming, but maybe you could also add chibis of characters as well? This way, players can choose their favorites and place them in the manors. Of course, we would expect this to take a while to implement. In addition, there is one very big part of the game that Im taking off stars for. There is not one, in all 80 or so characters, not even an r, that is tanned, let alone black. Like, cmon, its 2025! There should be at least 5 colored characters with how many there are anyway. Especially since the main draw of this game is the art and animation for the characters, the devs should be putting in more effort to be inclusive. Otherwise, Im an f2p and if you log in every day and do some missions, its fairly easy to get to 3000 crystals which we deeply appreciate. Also if you summon a certain amount of times on event banners, your guaranteed the event character which we also appreciate since its only 50 summons or so. Overall, great game and we recommend giving it a try.
So Ive recently been looking for any type of anime rpg game with 4.7 or more rating and as soon as we saw the picture and name of this game we instantly was like BDIDHEHSIEBSUSUWBSYDHS literallyAnways back to sweet talk when we saw this game we wanted to download it so bad and as soon as we played OMGGGG. THESE MINI MOVIES..like dude 100% RECOMMEND.the art is beautiful we feel like Im in heaven with the music and art style anyways our point is this game is the best we mean THE BEST anime/art GAME EVER SO LIKE GET IT NOWWW (also HUGE shoutout to the devs for this ake great work keep making this beautiful characters and music! Your welcome for the rating.
This game is like no other. The combination of beautiful artwork and original music is ethereal. Even the fight scenes are made in the most non-violent way. We think the characters are lovely and gorgeous. Ive seen way worse in terms of sexualization. This is a very gentle and relaxing afk game. If you want to just relax and enjoy the beauty this is it.
This game is possibly one of the best games we have ever played! Instant five stars, but our only problem with this game is it gets really hard to beat some levels and even harder to level up once you play long enough.
Played since release and we love the music and artwork.
We love arkrpg game and the. Game is a masterpiece and the characters are good.
The music and aesthetic is on point, but its AFK. Such a shame. We want to play a game, not have it played for us.
We really enjoy this game, the artwork is beautiful and he soundtrack is well done. However, once you hit chapter 7-8 it becomes difficult to progress without paying money. We're a F2P gamer, and it's frustrating that games use these mechanics to prey on consumers. There is also not enough events/activities in the game to keep it from becoming monotonous. We're guessing that's also so people have to $$$ to progress.
We highly recommend this game to anyone, the artwork is top notch. The graphics are out of this world! We started playing this game today Nov 26, 2024. Highly recommended more players to join in on the fun.
We recently downloaded this game and its so fun and easy to use no annoying ads or anything. Perfect character designs and not too much fan service (Im not a big fan of fan service ruins game) this game is perfect no false advertisement. There also the music is beautiful along with the art style the live 2D animation is amazing.
This game is so fun and exciting! Every journey is a new path to an adventure! Everything is detailed to the last frame and we think the artists who worked on this should be promoted. The art is so good and detailed. Nothing is out of place, its like a water painting come to life with graceful movements and everything goes together. And the music, so good!!! We sometimes just leave our phone on and listen to it! Im almost every character has a song based on them and their lore! And the story gets more and more interesting as you play on. You can play it on multiple devices as well so you cant have to play it just on your phone! We really love this game and hope that you like it when you download (you really should by the way) thanks for your attention and have a good day :).
The music is unbelievable and the backstories for each character are so well written.
The game is great overall but struggles with long-term playability. Quest mode starts strong but quickly loses momentum, with no story cutscenes or character dialogue after the intro. The narrative feels incomplete, and the difficulty spikes in later stages are harsh. Even with upgraded characters, gear, and runes, progression often feels like brute forcing rather than strategy. Since many core rewards are tied to Main Missions, the lack of progression in Quest makes it feel almost irrelevant when it should be central. Trials stand out for their unique mechanics and generous rewards, offering a fun break from Quest but limited attempts reduce their long term value. Other modes like Cave Time Dungeon, Temple of Illusion, and Raids also suffer from this restriction, adding unnecessary friction for players looking to grind or recover progress. Tower of Infinity is another challenge mode, but its difficulty almost exactly mirrors Quest too closely, making it feel repetitive and more punishing than rewarding.
This game is cute and entertaining to play and we love the style of the characters so much.
Freaking love this game its goated. Um anyway we could go on for hours this game is great we love it and uh you should download it. Even if you dont really care but are one of those people who just like the music you should still download it anyway because it has an in-game music player but while the music is top tier theres so many other cool aspects like the art and the voice acting which is honestly so underrated and needs more love.
The game catered too much to old players, and as a new player we feel seriously left out. They give a lot more rewards to old players, even if theyre inactive. Meanwhile, even if a new player is active daily, theres no way to catch up to the old inactive players. Alts also run rampant. Tower of illusion is supposed to be helpful but instead its obnoxiously exclusive to old players which widens the gap even more. It really dampened the mood and makes it feel like the only choice is wait for new world/server to come out, really unhelpful to expand or maintain the player base.
Love the music and artwork. Game crashes entering store though. No idea what Im doing at the moment as we play. But pretty interesting story, no idea how the gear works. Wish there was explanation on character types or how element defeats which element etc.
Love this game very chill and relaxing. Honestly started playing it in a whim but it ended up being quite entertaining for us.
We really wouldnt recommend a game like this to someone who wants to be very actively engaged in the game as its very streamlined towards being an afk style experience. Though we find the design (love watercolor) and the music and story is amazing and keeps us playing the game. Id also like and make the statement that the story is way too good to have basically no spoken parts outside of the first chapter or parts that are given to you while you progress. We think the intent was for the characters to have individual stories and have a simple broad story that you get introduced to and thats it but it would be a lot cooler in our opinion if the devs just added some voice lines here and there or maybe some character interactions as you go seeing as many characters have huge ties into parts of the countries you are saving.
It was just like any other day watching some guy get destroyed by Nicola Tesla. Until we got an ad about Memento we kept watching the ad because it looked beautiful until we saw it was 2D if it didnt have 2D we wouldve finished the ad and watch the video something click on our mind uh we download to see whats up it was unique like the good kind. After that we saw another ad it was like a spin wheel clicked on it we got the price we went to download the game we already got it downloaded we clearly forgot about it yesterday the fact it was 1:34PM we like it a lot for being a 2-D game is the best of the best you can get.
So we recently started playing again and after a while of trying to sign in we finally get into our account that we had been playing a while on. Then it says theres a new world you should play! Or something like that, we press yes thinking it would keep all of our progress but it completely reset our account and now we cant get it back.
It is a good game just no action in the fights.
Let us first say that we love anime games, but this game..it does something so special and unique that it gives us hope for the future of the game, please keep doing this game proud.
Game so fun our stage 7 prostate cancer was cured.
We definitely shouldve been here since first release we thought it was just like any other mediocre afk game that Ill be bored with after the first few days but its everything different from what Im used to playing countless unoriginal idle 3d visuals. Memento mori really stands out from the rest given its unique art style that has never been done in any afk game which is why the developers wanted to think outside the box and its worth it in every way possible it kinda gives us nier reincarnation vibes honestly. Playing this makes us feel like Im in a classical art museum with heart felt music AMAZING JOB DEVELOPERS.
Great game but the progression system is bloated it costs way too much progress units and you will get walled in the quest content frequently even if youre spending money.
Dont play this game if you dont like little girls because its lolicon central. We had our hopes up because the reviews were praising this game like it was revolutionary when in reality its just a boring idle rpg game that appeals to gooners.
Great game, got booted off our account that we hadnt linked yet because of a phone update, we had the people we wanted and had gotten fairly far, Im not willing to do it again so, highly recommend, link your stuff immediately.
Ive been playing this game for 7years and we will keep playing this game forever because its so fun Ty.
It doesn't feel like a grind and overall is a a relaxing fun experience with great music and art.
Can u make it so we can move around the characters like in that game genshin impact plsssssss.
At first, there is a lot to do, you have new game syndrome, where you put a ton of time into advancing and figuring out your characters. But later, after you are done with that or are just busy/unable to spend +half hour and/or login multiple times a day You can simply get your dailies/everything done in 5-10 minutes while only logging in once. (unless you are into the guild wars, then you gotta login a specific time).
We go through these type of games like its going out of style. Only one prior to this has ever lasted, and that was Nikke. But this is straight up gorgeous, visually and sonically. Ive found ourselves just listening to the music lol. Definitely a must download. We dont think very many people would regret playing this if its your style of game. Keep up the good work Devs.
Im no joking but the game developers must have spent most of their budgets seeking for their best songs. Imagine that they have really amazing songs that have the same quality of big names like YOASOBI or Yorushika. Anyway, if you dont play the game, thats ok although its decent enough to enjoy, but you must not miss the songs. They are available on their YouTube channel with both Japanese and English versions. One of the songs we suggest is Clockwise, which is in top 10 of our favorite J-Pop playlist.
Very beautiful art and music with a bittersweet story.
We got nothing else THE GAME IS AWESOME! We love the fact that they actually say happy birthday to you. Not many games do this but we love it.
We love how all the characters look and the music is breathtakingly beautiful.
Everything is good. The music, the characters, etc but when it comes to battle we are disappointed. It felt like we are playing a turn based game before then word turn based game was ever invented. At this modern time people wanna see flashy moves and animations.
Oh. Our. GOD. This game is too good for this world! The plot is not only interesting but it also sets a vibe that we have never seen before! The art style is gorgeous and the entire play through gave off dark psychology, poetry etc. And the music, the music is fantastic! We found ourselves searching up a few songs and listening to them in our free time. Our only complaint is that, why cant we change our pronoun? The player is set as a boy, and as a girl we feel awkward playing the game. There may be articles on this and we have searched it up a few times, but we found nothing. Im wondering if they can add an option at the start that lets you choose your gender.
Its an idle game, so your enjoyment is limited to how well you can manage your expectations. The art is good, the music great, the character designs and VAs amazing, and it has that hidden level of gameplay depth that all games of this type seem to have. Whaling is heavily encouraged, but F2Ps can make it maybe.
Thats what this game is doing. Listen, man: we got excited on the SETTINGS MENU. SETTINGS. GOT ME EXCITED. Listen, man, we play a LOT of idle games, and Ive played a few afkrpgs in our time. This one, this one is the best. Our sole complaint is that it isnt available on PC. We need it on more devices. That way, we can consistently play with sound: and we wont play without sound, that would simply be disrespectful to the game and its undoubtedly HUGE music budget. The music is probably the best part. Anyway, any game good enough to get us to write a review is worth getting, and definitely worth this 5 stars. PS: Yeah, micro transactions are in the game. You want EVERY character, but dont got time to grind (though it probably wont feel like grinding), you might need to spend. But each character has so much going on, you dont need many to do good and distract yourself with their stories. Edit: After a while, we just cant bring ourselves to play this game again. The characters, the world, the stories? They are too good. They deserve better than a gacha game. Make this something big. Id absolutely purchase a story based game with these characters, in this world. Even for the full big box $60, long as it was done right. This world you made deserves better. And make sure you use the same sound team. They did wonderful.
Seriously we dont write reviews, even for the games Ive been playing for a few years. But just after two days of playing this beautiful game we made the decision to leave our very first review. The artistic direction the developers went with this game is just amazing, the story is great, although we recommend keeping a box of tissues handy, the characters have their own backstories and they can and will tug at those heart strings! Also each character in the game is unique in their own way with their own amazing song that goes with them. This is a first where we actually care about the characters thats how well this game is done! You can tell right off the rip that the devs love this game and they put a lot of heart into this. Ill continue to play and open our wallet for this game and support it for as long as they keep it going! You all have a 5 star 10/10 rating in our book! Also one last note! Id give this a higher rating if we could, this game deserves to have more recognition and should be advertised more! Just download it and play it! Youll soon fall in love with this game as we have.
Ngl we downloaded the game for all the girls it had and the game appeared to be good lol.
