Roleff Kråkström, managing director of Moomin Characters, said today: “Millions of readers of all ages have fallen in love with the Moomin stories. For them, this game will offer a new take on the familiar characters, in situations which could have taken place in the original stories, but which are coming to life in a new, stunning setting. At the same time, the game is a wonderful introduction of the characters to audiences who are not familiar with the Moomins, and who will surely find their favourites among the cast.”
