Chromatic Memories

Chromatic Memories is a visual novel set in an alternate version of the Canary Islands, Spain, in the early 2000s. You play as Nayara, a painter of memories who uses a machine called the Memory Channeller to enter people’s memories and alter their minds, changing or erasing what they remember.

After Nayara wakes to find items missing and things out of place, she discovers that she left the Memory Channeller in Editor Mode, which memory artists use to alter their own memories. She realizes she must have erased something from her mind and begins investigating her past, following clues to uncover what happened and why she wanted to forget it. The story deals with loss, grief and acceptance.

Investigate memories

You examine each memory’s setting and speak with the people who appear in it to gather relevant information, characters and facts. Put those details in the right order to recover a lost memory and unlock new steps in the investigation. Special colors also let you visit events that took place in the same location at different points in time.

Craft colors

As you progress, you find new pigments and use minigames to craft colors for your investigation. These colors help connect each memory with the right emotion. You can also learn more about Nayara’s life and world, reconnect with old friends or discover new details, and shape her destiny toward happiness in the present.

Art and music

The game uses a colorful Fauvism art style inspired by avant-garde artists of the early 20th century. Its soundtrack draws on Spanish folklore and combines elements of progressive rock, blues and flamenco.
