Well written game about a son trying to connect his father with the past he cannot remember anymore. Moving story that is beautifully told.

Pick of the Month

April 2018

This month's pick is a moving story about what can be done when Memories Fade. It's sad, it's sweet and with a glimmer of hope at the same time.

I echo what others have said. This game told a touching story well, using a nice variation of puzzles, well-written dialogue and simple but pleasing art. Well worth a player's time :)

This is a touching game, it took me ~30 mins.
When talking to Dad I always thought, hey, I know this guy from somewhere, so the writing is really good.
I didn't like the finetuning lever puzzle but the cord untangling minigame puzzle is fun.

A very sweet and heartwarming game with some good puzzles.

I actually quite liked the various puzzles in this. They seemed like a conscious decision to move away from simple item combining (which was good). I even liked the wire untangling puzzle. I thought it was a great way to communicate that sort of problem in the context of a puzzle. This story had a good amount of depth and emotional resonance. Fred's gruff attitude made it very believable. Parts of the photo fading in, and the photo being used as a central anchor for the story were very nice touches! A fantastic game with a great ending!

Very well done, good puzzles great story telling. All the puzzles made sense (almost, as some cables weren't doing anything ;) ). Really lovely way to tell the story.
