It looks and sounds beautiful, and feels almost experimental in its design – it’s always a joy to see small developers trying something new. But it does leave a little to be desired; its short narrative fails to deliver any real punch, and when the credits roll you may be left thinking “…is that it?”. But considering its small asking price, we can’t really complain. If you enjoy narrative-led journeys, particularly those that deal in human emotion, A Memoir Blue is worth picking up.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespew.com\u002F2022\u002F04\u002Fa-memoir-blue-review\u002F","2022-04-01","7\u002F10",70,{"id":71,"author":72,"outlet":75,"summary":79,"review_url":80,"review_date":81,"original_score":68,"normalized_score":69},75981,{"id":73,"name":74},5789,"Ozzie Mejia",{"id":69,"logo":76,"name":77,"website_url":78,"score_format":49},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FShackNews-Logo.jpg","ShackNews","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.shacknews.com\u002F","There are several elements of A Memoir Blue that I feel are worth applauding. The mixture of traditional rendering with hand-drawn animation was implemented beautifully. The soundtrack complements the story's poetic nature tremendously and makes this the perfect kind of experience to help people wind down after a stressful period. The simplicity of its puzzle design may prove too rudimentary for some, but ideal for an audience that may not necessarily play traditional games. They're more for audiences looking for the kind of story experience that can't be told through other mediums.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.shacknews.com\u002Farticle\u002F129543\u002Fa-memoir-blue-review-underwater-melody","2022-03-28",{"id":83,"author":84,"outlet":87,"summary":92,"review_url":93,"review_date":94,"original_score":53,"normalized_score":54},102655,{"id":85,"name":86},9021,"Taylor King",{"id":88,"logo":89,"name":90,"website_url":91,"score_format":49},140,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fcheckpoint-gaming.jpg","Checkpoint Gaming","https:\u002F\u002Fcheckpointgaming.net\u002F","A Memoir Blue is both beautiful and extremely heartfelt.
