An adventure game that takes us to a dystopian, futuristic universe. In Don't Forget Me we explore the memories of clinic patients and discover the secrets hidden in them, following the trail of a conspiracy that could affect the fate of the world.
Don't Forget Me is an adventure game developed by independent studio The Moon Pirates. The game, which was inspired by such titles as Her Story and The Red Strings Club, was developed thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.
Plot
Don't Forget Me takes us on a journey to a futuristic world ruled by megacorporations. People have chips installed in their brains to store their memories and make it impossible to share them or copy them onto other media. The only places where their protection can be circumvented are special clinics banned by the world government.
The game's protagonist is Fran, suffering from amnesia, whose chip was cleared in mysterious circumstances. The protagonist ends up in one of the memory clinics. Helping Dr. Bernard, who works there, she discovers secrets of other patients' memories, step by step she comes closer to solving a riddle about her own past and finds herself on the trail of a conspiracy which may influence the fate of the whole world.
Mechanics
Don't Forget Me is a side-scroller. During the game we meet patients who want to copy their memories in the clinic. By talking to them, we learn about their interests, experiences or even emotions. In this way we discover key words that allow us to get into the memories of a given client and, in a way, move to their locations, where we can explore the secrets hidden in them. The matter is slightly complicated by the fact that we enter particular keywords manually, so we have to not only identify them correctly, but also remember them. In addition, during the game we often make decisions that affect the further course of the story.
Game modes
Don't Forget Me does not have a multiplayer mode. However, the game has been fully integrated with Twitch and received features that allow you to play together with viewers while broadcasting gameplay live.
Technical aspects
Don't Forget Me has colourful, pixel art graphics. The game is accompanied by an original soundtrack combining jazz and synthwave sounds.
