Sad but good story, very emotional. Good gameplay also.

Small. Good. Easy. A little junky controls on keyboard but nothing really grievous .

I'm not crying, you are T-T
My Memory of Us is a beautiful game based on the Poland occupancy during WWII. It has nice art, really good story and soundtrack.
Some puzzles and bosses are a bit challenging (it takes several attempts to make it through), but it is definitely worth to play.

This is a charming, heartwarming adventure game. It is clearly an allegory for a couple of kids surviving WW2, but it reframes the baddies as robots to avoid any excessively upsetting imagery. Some of the stealth parts are a little finicky, but otherwise it is a smooth experience start to finish. Hearing Patrick Stewart as narrator was quite a pleasant surprise. This game takes about five hours for a single playthrough and the achievements are pretty doable.

This is a very cute game, first and foremost, despite the themes being incredibly dark. But it also contains beautiful moments showing that discrimination is learned and not inherent in children.
During the beginning of the story, I had this odd sense that it was supposed to be a very obvious metaphor for something. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realise what it was referencing.
To quote an achievement "Day to remember - play the game on September 1st". We can all learn from history, and we absolutely need to to avoid another tragedy like this one.

Quest/adventure part of the game is undoubtedly 10/10:
Setting is an alternate version of Poland during World War II turned into kids-friendly steampunk fairytale. The narrative might seem simple on the surface, but has emotional depth and strongly resonates;
Music is gorgeous and complements the atmosphere perfectly;
Interesting and unusual visual style: mostly noire/black-and-white with accented elements painted in red.
But there is a fly in the ointment: the gameplay is platformer/quest hybrid, and platformer part is quite annoying. Specifically, some of side scroller/side shooter/stealth mini-games may challenge reaction speed. To make it worse, save checkpoints are not always well-placed: sometimes on failure you need to replay entire chapter from the beginning. This contrasts with game puzzles, which are very easy (and sometimes too easy).
That said, the game is hidden gem and deserve more acclaim. To give an example, it is very similar to Valiant Hearts: The Great War , but has 30 times less reviews (!).

A very beautiful and nice game, short, but with a history behind so dark, I loved it :))
