-Bienvenue En Dordogne-

Dordogne is a narrative adventure game in which you play as Mimi, a 32-year-old woman visiting the house of her recently deceased grandmother. As a souvenir of the childhood summers Mimi spent with her in Dordogne, her grandmother left her letters and puzzles to solve, to remind her to make the most out of life.
In this colourful region, full of wonderful scents and feelings, Mimi will immerse herself back into her childhood memories, and see once again through the eyes of the little girl who marveled at everything.

-The Game-

Dordogne is set both in the present and the past. In the present timeline, Mimi explores the rooms in her grandmother’s home. In the past timeline, you’ll help a 10-year-old Mimi explore Dordogne and complete her quests, affecting the present.

Along with the puzzles that both versions of Mimi will solve, you’ll collect photos, sounds, objects and words to create Mimi’s journal – keeping young Mimi’s memories of summers spent with her grandmother in Dordogne.

Found out about this game recently and it looks exceptionally gorgeous. I also like the generally positive focus on the passing of a loved one through invoking fond memories. I’m sure there’ll be some emotional punches in there but the game doesn’t seem too dour.

That looks lovely! Love the graphics and the mindset too. Now to wait until 2021.
Their other game project sounds really cute as well (but the page is in French only).
