The Red Moon

The Red Moon is a hack-and-slash game in which you fight through difficult dungeons and boss battles. Shiro and his friends are caught up in a mistake from their youth. They must avenge the destroyed town of Inishigari and save the newly founded village of Mizunara, where sightings of the Red Moon warn of coming destruction.

Shiro and his friends

Shiro leads the group as its protagonist. Takema is a stubborn warrior who is the most confident about taking action in dire situations. Ryo, the thief, is stubborn and childish but the group's fastest attacker. Saya is a mage confident in his abilities who can read ancient scriptures, while Hana is a shy but excellent archer and teammate.

Dungeons and preparation

You fight through dungeons and boss battles, and can strike certain objects, such as vines or petals, with your sword to gather items. Not everything you hit will yield something, but finding useful gathering spots can benefit you. You can save only once per day, and retrying costs gold, so upgrading your equipment helps prepare you for the battles ahead.

Home and town activities

House upgrades add new features to your home and take a few days to complete, depending on the upgrade. Buying a basement upgrade lets you plant crops there; eating them restores small amounts of HP. You can also build relationships with marriageable townspeople, many of whom live at the inn. Developing a relationship each day can lead to marriage and a life together. Once married, you and your spouse may share intimate moments in the bedroom, though not whenever you choose. You can also bathe together.
