Dordogne

Dordogne is an adventure game that takes us on a sentimental journey through the memories of the main character. The game was developed by independent studios Un Je Ne Sais Quo and Umanimation.

Plot

The action of Dordogne takes place in the French department located in the southwest of France. The main character of the game is Mimi, a young woman who spent her childhood holidays here. After the death of her grandmother, the heroine returns to this place to refresh her memories of her carefree youth.

Mechanics

The story told in Dordogne takes place on two time planes. As a ten-year-old Mimi we travel through a picturesque region and learn its secrets. The girl walks in the forest, climbs hills, even kayaking or trying her hand at cave exploration. The activities she performs have an impact on the future. The adult Mimi is already visiting her grandmother's house, reading the news she left behind and remembering her childhood, looking at the collected materials in the form of photographs, recordings and handwritten notes that have been included in her personal diary. What form the personal diary will take depends largely on our actions. Moreover, in both cases during the game we have to solve various puzzles that require perceptiveness and sometimes also patience.

Technical aspects

The graphic design of Dordogne was made in the original technique, which makes it similar to a painting painted with watercolors. The game is extremely colourful and pleasant to the eye.
