About the Game

Rabbitkind is afflicted by the Great Culling—a divine calamity purging them through war, famine, or plague every generation. You play as Fern, a young girl living under the harsh rule of the evil Nightshade. When you're revealed as the potential Seed—chosen to lead rabbitkind through each purge—you must defy the established order and forge a new destiny for yourself and your loved ones before Moonbriar is consumed.


Engage with a diverse cast of over 25 meticulously hand-painted and animated characters in the world of Moonbriar. Befriend, and perhaps even fall in love, with these fascinating individuals. Lushly painted environments depict both the beauty and danger of Moonbriar, immersing you in a captivating world you will not forget.




Every line of dialogue and narration has been brought to life with an all-star cast of award-winning film and voice actors. Led by the voice talents of Ralph Ineson (Game of Thrones, The Green Knight, The Witch), Savannah Steyn (House of the Dragon), two-time BAFTA nominated Simon Callow (A Room with A View, Four Weddings and a Funeral), and many casting announcements to come.


Moonbriar's world teems with political intrigue and peril. You'll encounter Nightshade's supporters, freedom fighters, and self-serving opportunists. Each decision you make sends ripples of consequences throughout the world, impacting friends and foes alike. Your actions will determine not only who ascends Moonbriar's throne, but who survives the Great Culling.


Your decisions carry weight and offer rewards based on your approach. Talk your way out of challenges to gain Diplomacy, architect the uprising to earn Strategy, or display unwavering resolve to acquire Willpower. Level up these traits to create even more powerful, game-changing moments.
