New Release: 'Mood Bloom' by Hedonia Will Boost Your Mood!
By Lisa Brunette
I'm excited to announce our client Hedonia's new release: Mood Bloom. This is a very different title for our studio in a lot of ways, as the intent with this game is not merely to entertain, but to heal.
This therapeutic game has been shown through scientific testing to relieve the player's symptoms of anxiety and depression.
I enjoyed the challenge of a heightened mission with this game through my narrative consulting, scriptwriting, and editing to support the Hedonia team. Marqui Maresca, a Brunette Games voice actor, recorded the intro cutscene voice for Rose, your guide through the game.
Mood Bloom works, and not just as evidenced in clinical trials. From a recent comment in the Google Play store:
Surprisingly, the game does help a little with my anxiety, by refocusing my thoughts. I'm hopeful things continue to improve for me. - Mike Biese

I can tell you that I always felt better playing the game, which I fortunately got to do as part of my work on its content. What I love about it is that it combines many of the aspects of casual gaming that attracts us to games like Lily's Garden and Fiona's Farm–interaction with a beautiful environment we can customize, along with a compelling story peopled with interesting characters–with game interactions that elevate as much as they delightfully challenge us.
Mood Bloom is in soft launch in Israel and the US, where it's available via Google Play.
