A Full Beginner Guide to Morimens (2026 Edition)

I loveeeeee ittttt, it's like Reverse 1999, I'm in love with this game too, I'm gonna cry, am so glad I discovered this game, and thanks a lot for the video, I kudt started

Saya was still available up to today and she will no doubt be available again in the future as all collabs in the game are permanent

Yooooo, i never thought of clicking the tentacle gauge

i tried Morimens recently and it is an absolute banger! The feeling of actually close to death (low HP) is a feeling I rarely experienced in a gacha game but Morimens require me actually reading mechanics(that's why im here), super good game.

I would never understand how I join gacha games only when the anniversaries end.

I downloaded this game because of Ryker🤤 and needless to say I was very happy with how this game turned out to be. I had weird expectations since last game I played with this sort of style was Reverse: 1999 which I haven’t played in years but I’m glad to have found this gem from an ad!

Woah first time I see this game looks alot like Reverse:1999

This video convinced me Morimens looks like a genuinely good game that people who like it likely love it. At the same time, it's also not what I'm looking for at the moment when it comes to a card game.
Its gameplay looks to have a lot of depth, but that's also what's turning me off tbh as, right now, I'd be more interested in a more casual game and I'm unable to find reason to play Morimens over Slay the Spire.
So right now it's not for me, but I also see that it seems like a genuinely good game!

im giving this game a try cus of ur video

Is like limbus company right?

i was 2 weeks late to find this game :(

Started playing today. I like deck builders and I really love rpgs with creepy aesthetics like Darkest Dungeon. Looking forward to playing more. Thanks for the recommendation! ------- Its been a few days now and Ive gotten really into the game. I see Caro and Ultra arent supposed to be all that great later on but those are the factions I like gameplay wise. If I hit a wall later on so be it I guess but for now Im having a good time.

8:23 Rouze Card?

Some youtuber talking about Morimens, the gacha games that survive. That's why i'm here and interested on playing the game

I gave the game a chance and it does seem very well made, but it's just not for me. Still, I hope it continues to grow and remains active.

lowkey, missing the apparently amazing saya event that i clicked on the thumbnail for tilts me off the face of the earth haha

"Congratulations! You just missed a free limited character and 250 pulls in this game that you've never heard about before!"

Great... Thanks...

The more I play this game the more I can't stop wishing this was what SinOAlice should had been, but the story was always the least priority in that game.

Genuinely, thank you, I'm surprised I managed to join this game the moment it was in a Collab I didn't know about

STARTS CHEERING WILDLY LETS GO MORIMENS 2026 ❤‍🔥

Nice

Подумал при виде обложки: "Что это за Saya?"

И это действительно Saya no Uta, лол

something I would mention re: investing in characters is that the resources in this game are very generous, and you need a whopping total of 10 full teams with different characters in them for the endgame mode, so even if you build a weaker character, they will still be useful in the end! so experimenting and learning different characters in the game is encouraged and not punished

get in the game before the 3rd Years anniversarry, GO GO GO

Pontos made me play

19:33 at times? Bro dupes are MANDATORY in this game

18:34 aka Caecus Nautila counter comp

IMPORTANT: unfortunately psychie was a bit slow in putting this video out as the saya event (free saya +250 pulls) has already ended
however if this comment isnt too out of date, you can still use the code (settings -> account -> redemption code) YOUSAVEDMORIMENS for 100 free standard pulls

a few small addendums/corrections i'd like to make as someone who considers themselves a veteran:

realms:

all realms can store 2x max (2000) keyflare and use it a second time. however, pure chaos get to double cast a chosen unused posse, whereas every other combination of team has to choose between one of three unused posses to cast once. pure chaos also gets additional keyflare, as well as a burst of aliemus to your awakeners each time you use a posse.

(covenant) stats:

dps: crit (if applicable) > keyflare and death resist > everything else
supports: keyflare > death resist > everything else

damage amp may be universal, but its close to useless on most dps because of the way the damage formula works
damage amp is only relevant for: doll:inferno, helot:catena, arachne, nymphaea, offensive kathigu-ra if you are playing them as main dps, with a few others (caecus, tawil, castor, daff, etc) probably better with crit if they are your team's main dps

death resist on the other hand is not niche, it is one of the best stats in the game, it is the only stat that can look at an opponent doing 2k damage to you when you are on 20 hp and laugh in the face of certain death

realm mastery is niche (a bit less so with the divine realms brought by murphy:fauxborn, vortice, saya, arachne, and pontos) but the absolute trap stat that you should almost never invest in is aliemus regen (gdoll's wheel is an exception because the effect of the wheel fixes all the problems the stat has, not because it has the stat)

shop:

rose scrip: buy everything, you will quickly enough be swimming in rose scrip and unable to get rid of it, if you are poor you can skip the covenants, if you are REALLY poor make sure you at least pick up the daily mimetic crystals and the aetheric shards. steppenwolf is ok for poison/counter teams, but mostly you're buying steppenwolf and organic form if you have so much extra rose scrip you can afford to crush them into thousand faces stamps for covenant rerolls

sediment: you should have enough to get the prototype horizon (the petri dish psychie mentions in the video) and the timeloop copy every month, these are top top top priority, pulls and the wheels are secondary, everything else is not really worth considering. as a f2p, dusk and dawn is goated, work towards +12ing dusk and dawn (while buying monthly prototype horizon and timeloop copies), it is a keyflare wheel in disguise and op af, if you buy battlepasses you will unlock the other battlepass wheels, all three battlepass wheels are good for different reasons (spring in yakutsk for huge keyflare, sunfall for damage amp carries, birth of a soul for defensive/poison/counter teams). the paradox covenant set is ok on like two or three characters, and its probably not even that optimal on them

badges: get the sr dupes, you should be able to afford all of them if you are clearing story, but if you ever have to pick, lotan to OE > ogier max > whatever. save some badges for later, dream of medicine is one of the best generic covenant sets but it unlocks super late into account progression. earlygame crimson pulse is pretty decent (and better than steppenwolf for crit dps, which is most of them) but dont blow through your badges buying junk like i did

lightless/black offerings: the only things you should be buying here are the yellow (ssr) wheels, in the order rewinding time/celestial beast > heart of a knight/deathless ascent. the sr wheels are fine but you'll get them all for free as events rotate and it may take a while but they're not worth the black offerings unless you REALLY need them right now

d-jewel: buy dreamshards and dreamsparks. first thing every week, when you get your d-jewel stimmy from the weekly quests. these things unlock a special passive for arc 2 and is a major stat boost for them. aside from the level cap unlock materials, mimetic crystals, and aetheric shards, these are some of the most time-gated resources in the game. after that, one of each of the wheels, aurita and aigis dupes are good (dont know how good aurita is but her team got a big boost with pontos, the "typical" thought was aigis OE and then erica +12 as a statstick/maxing out wheels but its probably a good idea to invest in aurita now

arc 1 shops:

sell useless skills, they sell for 50 black sigils and strikes/defends only sell for 30. strike/defs are more valuable than you think since they at least give aliemus and can be used to trigger CERTAIN boss effects, and if you really want to delete them look for effects that can delete any card (the cursed relic black star ember is excellent for this as it deletes 2 (!) cards from your deck, but in exchange you have to let it increase your strength)

characters:

level every skill card (and rouse) to level 3 once you are past the beginning hump, this is basically free, everything past that costs time-gated skill materials (mimetic crystals) from first clear rewards and the arcane dominion weekly, use your judgement to decide what is best to upgrade, but examples of high priority upgrades include mouchette's exalt for flat damage on strikes, reload for vortice pursuit damage, nymphaea rouse for scaling. some characters can function perfectly fine without skill upgrades (my aigis is still 1/3/3/3/3/3), some characters desperately want levels on everything with how much you're playing all of their cards (murphy:fauxborn)

pull strategy:

if you come from slay the spire (or similar games), aequor standard will most accurately reflect and pay off the strategies that work best in slay the spire. however, morimens is not slay the spire, and other realms through way of their mechanics will teach you that lesson well. every realm has its standouts and its duds, and what is best to pull is often a matter of opinion and depends on what limiteds are on banner right now. you will want to have two characters from each realm for the lightless realm challenge mode though.

team comps:

honestly i think theres a lot of fun to be had in experimenting and seeing what works, this isnt a game where you will get heavily bricked for overinvesting in the wrong thing, i did it and its part of the learning experience. just know that the first 4 chapters of the story are the tutorial and the difficulty starts to ramp up quickly starting from chapter 5 but you will probably feel it most in chapter 7 onwards

long term goals:

you want to build 4 teams capable of beating the first difficulty level of the d-zone bi-weekly challenge mode, and then borrow a carry to help you beat the fifth. you get significantly more rewards beating each stage once than you do beating one stage at a high difficulty, but you can't reuse characters, wheels, or posses for this mode (you can reuse covenants though). a borrowed mouchette can easily carry even a team of all level 1s through alert 1, and there are a lot out there if you look (or msg me, i can put mine up)

for whales/dolphins/swipers:

best value by far is the monthly subscription (moonphase vigil) that requires you to log in once a day, but you get 31.5 pulls for $5, which is pity for one ssr and 1.5 pulls on top of that. after that is the preorder pack for a new character, and the battlepass is worth investing in at least 3 total times due to unlocking the three battlepass exclusive wheels sunfall/spring in yakutsk/birth of a soul in the sediment shop. after that its your discretion (or look up a guide or something)

ps: if you're going to follow a guide, look for cheri's new player handbook, dont try to make sense of flares' schizophrenic doc where half the advice is legit and half is injokes and theres no actual way to tell which is which

Started playing the game last month, game is very fun and i got a lot of characters (and dupes), kinda hard to play both morimens and czn tho lol.

It's always interesting when it comes to sponsorships that makes sense on youtube, a part of me is inherently distrustful but I mean it's a great guide with honest opinions :D

Damage dealers mostly don't want Damage amplification because it's a shared stat. It's also mostly a bad stat to deal damage because it doesn't scale as well as Critical dmg/chance

Just came from STS to Morimens. First Gacha I’ve ever played.

I’m starting to learn you’re THE Gacha YouTuber and then you drop this video. All the stars are aligning.

Morimens just hits so differently for me.. between the gorgeous artstyle, the deep lore, the lovely characters and the melancholic yet hopeful atmosphere + the complex teambuilding and gameplay.. It is pure bliss!
I love this game so much! 🙏🙏💜💜

Lol I can see people pissed off because of the timing of the video

> Beginner Guide to Morimens
Me with account' level 74: Interesting... I wonder what he's gonna talk about

Ive got about 80 hours on morimens but i swear ive been playing with my eyes closed since i had no idea you could change tentacle modes or trade cards for insight in ultra realm😭

Unfortunately you cant get the free 250 pulls & free saya anymore. The event ended yesterday.

this is a W

yeeeeees more morimens videos

13:28 and by converting Remembrance Quills via Material Synthesis which is the main way
Great guide! when I was a newbie, no Morimens guide maker informed me that Damage Amplification is a team-wide thing

Morimens!! *click*

Doing the engagement thing despite being a 6 month long player. This game is awesome and more people need to play it

7:40 new players! Prioritize selling low impact skills rather than basic strike/defense because gives you 20 extra credit

Fantastic game. Spooky atmosphere with some light hearted moments. Was hooked from the very first story 'Wax Museum'.

DUDE NO FUCKIKG WAY. I KEPT TELLING THEM IN THE SATISFACTION SURVEYS TO SPONSOR YOU AND THEY DID

Let's gooooo more morimens

Nicee! Thank you for shining a light on this absolute gem! 💜💜

I started playing Morimens after your first video guide. I now have over 200 hours and have played through both story arcs completely (arc 2 chapter 5); what a blast. Would recommend this game for those looking for the VN-style story presentation + Card gameplay.
