Dordogne is not a game, it is a wholesome single player narrative adventure, set in watercolor world that looks and feels unique and fresh – something that few games of today can offer.
When trying to think of other similar games, the one name that comes to mind is the recent watercolor-esque platform adventure: Plane of Lana. As good as that game was, even it doesn’t come close to the visual experience that Dordogne has to offer.In Dordogne, you take on the role of a woman named Mimi, who is visiting her late grandmother’s house. Mimi’s grandmother left her some letters and puzzles, and by solving these, Mimi revisits memories of her childhood and discovers family secrets that were lost over time.The game is set both in the present and the past. Mimi, explores the rooms of her grandmother’s house in the present timeline, and as a 10-year-old in the past timeline, exploring Dordogne and completing quests that influence the present.

Inspired by the real-world location of Dordogne, all environments in the game are created with beautiful hand-painted watercolors by French artist Cédric Babouche, who used his own personal experiences and connections to the region of Dordogne as inspiration for the game’s look and feel.
