A narrative adventure described by the authors as an interactive poem. In A Memoir Blue, we play as a swimmer named Miriam who dives into her memories, recalling her troubled childhood and the complicated yet strong bond between her and her mother.
A Memoir Blue is a narrative adventure game that, due to its artistic flair and the themes it addresses, is described by its creators as an interactive poem. The game was developed by Cloisters Interactive, an independent American studio, and was published by Annapurna Interactive.
The heroine of the game A Memoir Blue is a swimmer named Miriam. After listening to an old song being a real star of the sport, the girl dives into memories. The heroine recalls her troubled past and tries to understand the complicated yet strong bond she has with her mother.
A Memoir Blue is a side-scroller. During the game we explore surreal locations. Because of the discipline, in which Miriam is a master, in many of them appears water. We are talking about a room filled with it, a train under its surface, or even the sea bed, on which a thoughtful girl sits. In each of these places we solve ingenious puzzles and observe the heroine's childhood memories. In this way, step by step, we discover more pages from her past and learn more and more about the relationship she has with her mother.
The graphic design of A Memoir Blue in an original way combines 3D elements (the heroine, the places she visits) and 2D (scenes from Miriam's childhood).

Game Ratings for A Memoir Blue Video Game.
TechRaptor: 8 / 10 by James Bentley
A Memoir Blue is an interesting, emotional journey with a great atmosphere to go alongside it. Even though the story demands a little more time, the journey is worth it.
Checkpoint Gaming: 8 / 10 by Taylor King
A Memoir Blue is an interesting case study for where the future of indie games may be heading within the next 5 years. While both visually striking with a seemingly simple narrative core, A Memoir Blue is able to deliver an experience that evokes emotional sympathy and combines its game concepts directly with its themes of family and estrangement. Despite being a short experience with limited opportunities for interesting gameplay scenarios, I sense this is only the beginning of an exciting style of video games.
WellPlayed: 9 / 10 by Mark Isaacson
There’s plenty of space for engaging narratives that don’t rely on traditional gameplay and opportunities to craft smaller tales. A Memoir Blue manages both very well in the process of pulling at the heart strings in just the right way.
