Memory's Waltz

Memory's Waltz is an emotional two-player puzzle game about love, time, and the power of shared memories. When Alzheimer's begins to erase Allie's precious memories, her devoted husband Noah refuses to let their story fade away. Through a unique split-screen mechanic, players work together across two different time periods - present and past - to help restore Allie's cherished memories of their life together. One player takes on the role of 80-year-old Allie in the present, while the other controls young Noah in their shared past. As Noah tries to recreate significant moments from their history, players must solve interconnected puzzles that bridge the gap between time periods. Every successful puzzle brings another memory into focus, helping Allie slowly piece together the beautiful story of their love. Script prototype from The Notebook directed by Nick Cassavetes. Features: Unique cooperative gameplay that requires communication and coordination, Emotionally resonant storytelling inspired by stories of enduring love, Time-bending puzzles that connect past and present, Beautiful, nostalgic visuals and period-appropriate music, A touching exploration of memory, aging, and unconditional love. Developed by three graduate students from Teachers College, Columbia University, aiming to raise awareness about memory loss and its impact on relationships.
