What's New in Yokai Matsuri

1.30.0

October 10, 2026

MOMIJI IS HERE! Join Inari under the leaves for Momiji, autumn leaf viewing, running now through October 31. NEW EVENT MECHANIC: FALLING LEAVES Japanese maple leaves now drift down from the top of the board. They can't be matched or cleared, so the goal is to get them all the way to the bottom. Clear the tiles beneath a leaf to help it fall faster, or swipe it aside when it's in the way. Every leaf you land counts toward your total, and your total carries across every Momiji level, so replaying always helps. UNLOCK AS YOU GO - 58 leaves: the Maple Leaf Charm - 108 leaves: Kodama lore - 308 leaves: a new story about Momiji itself 8 NEW LEVELS Momiji is built to be a challenge. Expect to retry a few of these, and don't forget your items. FOR SHRINE KEEPERS Shrine Keepers can claim an exclusive Momiji Manju during the event. ALSO IN THIS UPDATE - Shrine Keepers now see a celebration popup when their event treat arrives in the shrine (this was missing for the Tsukimi Dango). - New leaf sounds and animations, and an intro from Inari the first time you open Momiji. Thank you for playing, and happy leaf viewing!

Fun and a bit addictive

I’ve always been a Yokai fan, however I don’t typically like matching games. Yokai Matsuri did a great job making me want to play! The ambient background music, the beautiful designs, and the extra information are all pluses for me. I am thankful for the hints that pop up on occasion as my matching seems to be at a lack 😅 - all in all I’m enjoying it and I dig the events that pop up with twists on the standard matching mechanics. Check it out!
