10 itemsAbout the Game
Remembering Emily is a short visual novel in which Thomas, the protagonist, relives his memories of Emily—memories that led him to her tragic end… although they might not be as clear as they first appear.
Fragmented Memories
Throughout the different chapters of Remembering Emily, Thomas will try to piece together what really happened. Each memory represents a possible path… and each path reveals a different truth.
The player’s choices are crucial in this story, as they lead to unique situations and two completely different—but complementary—endings.
If you want to uncover what truly happened with Emily, you’ll need to reach both endings. Only then will you understand 100% of the story.
Characters
While Remembering Emily features more characters than those shown here, this is a brief overview of the key figures in this tale of mystery and emotion:
Emily. She enters Thomas’s life unexpectedly and quickly becomes someone essential to him… even after her tragic end, which ties her forever to his memories.
Noah. Throughout the story, Thomas recounts to Noah—almost like a therapy session—everything that happened with Emily. Noah plays a key role in helping him reconstruct his memories.
Kate. Thomas’s coworker and secretly in love with him. She’s one of his closest friends and always by his side… even when Emily appears.
William. Kate's brother. He met Thomas by chance while developing an indie video game.
Seth. ???
Thomas. Through his eyes, we relive the past with Emily and discover why she left such a deep mark on his life.
Join Thomas on a journey through his memories and uncover the truth behind this emotional, mysterious story.
