Dordogne is a narrative adventure game in 3D watercolour from Focus Entertainment, the publishers behind hits like A Plague Tale and Atomic Heart.
It follows the story of Mimi, a young woman who spent summers during her childhood at her Grandmother’s in Dordogne, France. She is in search of her childhood memories that have lost their vigour and colour over time as the memory of them fades.
Explore summers past
In Dordogne on Xbox, Game Pass, PlayStation, Switch and PC, you’ll get to explore the world between childhood and adulthood, recounting these memories of Mimi’s family past. To help her recover lost memories of the precious time spent with her late grandmother, Mimi can fill her journal by taking photos with her Polaroid camera and making notes of sounds and scents she can remember from her holidays.
The game boasts a truly unique art style in the form of sumptuous hand-painted watercolour environments that truly capture the landscapes of a Dordogne summer.
Creative Director, Cedric Babaouche, explains what watercolour painting means to him. ‘I’ve learned how to express my emotions through it, to capture the feelings of wonderful moments, places, people. Watercolours are quick, messy, colourful. Just like emotions, it’s something vibrant, sometimes cathartic‘.
As Mimi, you’ll get to explore colourful environments through her eyes by running through the countryside, walking through a bustling town or paddling down a river in your canoe. Experience it for yourself by watching the trailer.
