About the Game



High Alchemist Nika Skylar is an acclaimed alchemist invited as an honoured guest at the Moonfaire. A state held festival to celebrate a rare event of the silver moon. An event that occurs only once every century and fuels the magic of their kingdom for the next hundred years.

During a night of celebration, activity and tradition, tragedy strikes.

A derailed ritual, a murder, a traitor.

Alchemist Skylar must investigate the incident and protect the world's very core of civilization.

The Fabled Moonflower

Accompanied by a princess and a mysterious stranger the clock ticks.

Moonflower is a all-ages, BL Visual Novel.

A member of the elusive Felinis tribe Skylar has trained as an
alchemist his whole life.

An accident in his youth led him to develop his alchemically
augmented prosthetic arm.

Most commonly known by his family name, Skylar.


A chatty and socially awkward individual who appears
out of nowhere with an offer to help Skylar.

He won’t say who he really is, but he seems to have a deep
connection to the Moonflower.
