At first I was more of a fan of Kurt's story than of Harry's. Kurt's just felt a lot more emotional and I never really understood Harry's romantic pull towards Julia. Kurt fighting to get through to war to back home to his family and to find his son felt a lot more grave than Harry simply wanting to tap into the glory of war to impress some girl. Towards the end (like Part III), the bond between Kurt and Harry felt more worthwhile and I felt a lot more invested in the game. Definitely felt disappointed with the ending *I* got the first time, but I really love that they included multiple endings. The art/visual style was great, the soundtrack pretty nice, and the play style was a nice relief/change from other WWI & WWII games that are always third-person or first-person shooters.

Also, I loved playing as Lottie the cat <3

11-11: Memories Retold is a thrilling story about a photographer and a German veteran during World War 2 that shows both sides a the war telling the same story from 2 perspectives. The game has a great story and amazing art direction in this relaxing short story.

84/100

Beautiful, artistically sophisticated game in the setting of World War 1. Good, emotional scenes that work, underpinned by beautiful, painterly graphics. Good voice acting.

Video Games are such a great way to tell a story, and with this game, it's in its element. The game feels like it tells a personal perspective of what the War was like, from all sides on a much more human level than we're used to in other War media. Definitely give it a go.

One of the clumsier war stories I've experienced, with gameplay to match

~ Walking Sim ambientado durante a WW1 que acompanha a vida de dois personagens de ambos os lados do conflito, revelando como o destino dos dois se entrelaça numa narrativa trágica. Jogo com uma experiência única, entretanto, infelizmente subestimado. JOGUEM!
