Rememori
A poignant memory game and playable poem. The title, 'Rememori', is a conflation of the words, remember, memory and memento mori. Through multiple levels, the player grapples with the effects of degenerative dementia on an intimate circle of characters.
Here's a video screen recording of Rememori. I created the original work in Flash but the web has discontinued support for Flash.
In memory of my father, Bernard Wilks (1925-2012). I made the work while he was still living but in the latter stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
