Hana's got some skeletons in her closet. For the past few years the hustle and bustle of the city has served as a great distraction, but the time has come for her to view the reality of what happened to her, "with open eyes."
In "MINE MEMORY" - a short (~1 hour) yet gripping and dynamic visual novel, we dive deep into the memories and psyche of Hana. We navigate through her otherwise stimulating and vibrant city life as we uncover the truth of her past, which includes the reason why she's decided to leave her hometown for a metropolis.
Delusion or reality? The surreal journey we embark upon might not always be what it seems. And so, navigating the labyrinth of Hana's psychology is heavily influenced by choices. Choices made will help guide Hana towards multiple resolutions to her troubles, while revealing some profound insights along the way.
"Remember the mines?" Explore the quaint yet confining and sometimes "suffocating" life of Hana's rural hometown, and how it conflicted with her dreams of escape to the city's supposed "endless opportunities." Hana's story weaves all of the subtle complexities of nostalgia, resentment, as well as the costs that come with the pursuit of independence and self-identity.
Unique grunge visuals with atmospheric soundtrack. Combining hand-drawn elements with grunge textures and bleach fades, the experience of "Mine Memory" is immersive and brings to life the process of confronting psychological regrets and repressed memories.
Multiple Highly Consequential Endings. Hana's fate is sealed by prioritising certain values over others. The "right thing" for Hana might not be clear-cut as it might seem, which means each ending comes with it a new perspective and philosophy on Hana's journey.

- Deep and dynamic psychological narrative-driven gameplay, heavily influenced by choices.
