About the story
We begin our story by introducing an ordinary young woman named Miriam. She is reflecting on childhood memories of her mother and a day trip they once took to a neighboring city. Rather than recalling these events as they actually occured, she remembers the day from the perspective of her younger self, transforming the experience into a magical journey of the imagination. As Miriam thinks back on these events, her emotions surge as if experiencing the trip for the first time once again.

Critic Reviews
Gamer's Palace
By Manuel EichhornIn A Memoir Blue, you play a dream and that's what stays: It's a very short experience, telling a good story with a very important topic. But it's over so fast it might not stick in your memory as well as it should.
Pixel Arts
By Farhad HassanpourA Memoir Blue is artistically beautiful, technically comprehensible, and story-wise truly admirable.
Checkpoint Gaming
By Taylor KingA 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.
VGChartz
By Lee MehrA Memoir Blue’s aspirations as an interactive poem feel undone by shallow execution.
INVEN
By Seungjin KangAn attractive title with the combination of surreal 3D scene and beautiful 2D artwork. The story created by Shelly Chen is somewhat unclear. And this vague story makes it easier for players to resonate their own experience. However, the game can leave much to be desired for those who would like to enjoy a completed story.
