Momento's 'Realities' Update Adds Room Variants, 70 Puzzles, and Creative Tools

Momento's 1.1 update, titled Realities, is the game's first major update since launch — and its focus is variation. Because the earliest rooms are the ones players encounter most across repeated loops, the update introduces multiple versions of them to reduce repetition and reward closer attention.

What changed

Alternate Early Rooms

  • The Cot Room (the first level) now has three distinct versions
  • Childhood Bedrooms come in three variants: Dinosaur, Teddy, and Unicorn
  • Teenage Bedrooms offer three versions: Mom's Place, Dad's Place, and Tyler & James's Place
  • Room layouts aren't the only things that differ between variants
  • Completed variants become accessible through the Wall of Memories

Creative Mode additions

  • New swappable backgrounds: cityscape, back garden, mountain range, and space
  • Windows and other items can now be placed on either wall
  • Room size can be changed without restarting the room
  • A test tube layering bug has been fixed

Puzzles

  • 70 new puzzles have been added to the existing set

Alongside the update, Momento is currently 20% off and is included in the Wholesome Games Celebration.

For players who cycle through loops repeatedly, the room variants mean that familiar spaces now carry genuine uncertainty — layouts and details shift, and the Wall of Memories becomes the place to track what's been discovered.

Momento's 'Realities' Update Adds Room Variants, 70 Puzzles, and Creative Mode Upgrades

Momento's first major post-launch update, version 1.1 titled Realities, is out now. Its central premise is variation: the earliest rooms in the game — those encountered most frequently across playthroughs — now exist in multiple forms, giving repeat loops a meaningfully different character.

What changed

Alternate early rooms

  • The Cot Room (the first level) now has three distinct versions
  • Childhood Bedrooms come in three variants: Dinosaur, Teddy, and Unicorn
  • Teenage Bedrooms offer three variants: Mom's Place, Dad's Place, and Tyler & James's Place
  • Completed variants become accessible through the Wall of Memories
  • The changes aren't limited to layout — the developers note that other details shift too

Creative Mode additions

  • New swappable backgrounds: cityscape, back garden, mountain range, and space
  • Windows and other items can now be placed on either wall
  • A test tube layering bug has been fixed
  • Room size can be changed without restarting the room

Puzzles

  • 70 additional puzzles have been added to the game

The update also includes bug fixes. Alongside the release, Momento is 20% off, and the game is featured as part of the Wholesome Games Celebration.

For players who found the opening rooms repetitive across multiple loops, the Realities update directly addresses that friction — while the puzzle expansion gives completionists a substantial new workload.
