Painter Momopie
is a 1990 maze action video game developed and published by Sigma Enterprises for the Game Boy. The player controls the witch Momopie, with the objective being to clean all the floors in a castle, and also to avoid and counter the foes that are in it. Various spells that Momopie acquires throughout the game help her in cleaning the castle faster, and/or are able to stop the enemies within it, though at the cost of MP. Gameplay 

The player controls a witch named Momopie, who must clean 33 floors of a castle. Each floor, arranged in a maze-like fashion, is made up of smaller tiles covered in dirt, in which Momopie must use her giant paintbrush to clean them with. In addition, various enemies are within the castle's walls, and touching them results in death. Momopie acquires spells throughout the game, both by progressing though the game and by a random spell that the King gives to her every few stages, that help her clean the castle faster, and also help address the enemies in various ways, by stunning them, killing them, or turning them into temporary allies. This comes at a cost of using up limited MP. However, it's refilled after each stage, and the MP limit is raised every once in a while. Release
