  • Melody of Moominvalley is now available on iOS and Android

Following a round of pre-registration that began back in June, Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley has officially launched on iOS and Android today. Originally released to acclaim on PC and Nintendo Switch earlier this year, this poetic, musical adventure is now available to play on mobile, just in time for Moomin’s Day on August 9th and the 80th anniversary of Tove Jansson’s beloved creations.

In Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley, you’ll step into the role of Snufkin, the free-spirited wanderer who returns to Moominvalley only to find it overrun with fences, signs, and unnatural parks. The mission is simple. Restore balance and harmony to the valley using music, stealth, and charm. 

From sneaking past guards to bringing joy to the residents through melody, your journey unfolds in a calm, story-rich rhythm that feels true to the spirit of the original stories. And for some similar experiences, check out this list of the best puzzlers to play on iOS right now!

Exploration in Snufkin feels open and organic, encouraging you to wander, observe, and interact with over 50 characters from the Moomin universe. The hand-drawn art style captures the warmth of Jansson’s illustrations, while its gentle puzzles and environmental storytelling pull you deeper into the world with every step.

The soundtrack is another great feature, crafted in collaboration with Icelandic post-rock group Sigur Ros. Their ambient, emotional score ties the whole experience together, giving the valley a distinct atmosphere you’ll want to sink into. And once you're through with this experience, brace yourselves for Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth, a new adventure currently in the works.

For now, begin your journey by downloading Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley on your preferred link below. This is a premium mobile release, though the first chapter is free to try. A one-time purchase unlocks the full experience, with no ads or microtransactions to disrupt the flow.
