About
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.
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.
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.
IMPORTANT: The story touches on themes related to violence, drugs, and weapons, although these topics are not explored in depth.

A short yet captivating novel that will leave you with a twist at the end of each chapter, pushing you to find out the truth of what happens in the end. [h2][u]The Story & Gameplay[/u][/h2] There are two routes to this story, so completing both will give you the complete overview of the story. The story itself is linear however, each time you make a choice it is one of two responses. I selected all the first choices in my first run through and all the second ones in my second. The story is very well written, and each chapter leaves you hanging with a twist (thankfully this novel is not in early access)! 🌶️ Spice Level - I will say medium. There is nothing sexual but there are scenes of death, mentions of violence and a gun pointed at the mc in one part. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3544877757 [h2][u]Settings & Extras[/u][/h2] Settings & extras include; display mode, language, text speed and audio controls. There are plenty of save slots available. You can turn off the hud for taking screencaps and their is a history log. [h2][u]The Visuals & Audio[/u][/h2] The artstyle is anime inspired with a cartoonish vibe. The backgrounds and sprites are hand illustrated and colored in a vibrant palette. There is no voice acting, which is fine, and the ambient sounds such as rain or the murmur of the crowd is well done. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3544877875 [h2][u]Overall Experience[/u][/h2] A really good story, with each chapter ending on a twist. It is a short read but I enjoyed it. It was just long enough with an intriguing narrative and some great art, screen capture lovers will enjoy this one (and yes you can hide the hud for taking captures). It was only a couple hours for me but I am a fast reader (time may vary depending on your reading speed). 🍓 ⭐[url=https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198889833430/recommended/3698050/] Read Foxxelle’s official review for Otome Lovers!

[後半に日本語レビューあり] [h1] Another Possibility Indicated by Fragments [/h1] A short mystery VN in which the protagonist reaches for the truth about Emily by following fragmented recollections. Each scene changes subtly depending on the choices made, presenting an “alternate interpretation” of events. The core lies in reading between the lines, discerning the gaps between what is described in therapy sessions and what is remembered. The estimated reading time is around 3–4 hours. The two endings are complementary, and only by reaching both can the full picture be assembled. The hand-drawn anime-style artwork feels familiar and inviting. Themes such as violence and drugs are touched upon only lightly. There is no voice acting, with the presentation relying solely on text. If you enjoy short mysteries that increase their “resolution” through choices, this may be worth delving into. [h1] 断片が指し示す“もう一つの可能性” [/h1] 断片的な回想を辿り、主人公がエミリーの真相へと手を伸ばす短編ミステリーVN。各場面は選択によって微妙に展開が変わっていき、出来事の“別解”を提示する。実際に何が起きたのか…セラピストとの面談での記述と記憶のズレを読み取る過程そのものが本作の核である。 読了目安は約3〜4時間。二つのエンディングは相補関係にあり、両方に到達して初めて全体像が揃う設計だ。手描き調のアニメ絵柄には親近感が湧く。暴力や薬物といったテーマには軽く触れる程度。ボイスはなくテキスト主体。短編のなかでも選択肢により“解像度”を上げていくタイプのミステリーが好みなら飛び込めるかもしれない。 [quote][b]Check out our [url=store.steampowered.com/curator/36364102-Horny-Hentai-Festival/]Steam curator[/url] , [url=www.youtube.com/curatorhhf/]YouTube channel[/url] and [url=x.com/hhfcurator]X(Twitter)[/url]![/b][/quote]
I really wanted to like this game. Each chapter ends with a bombshell revelation that deepens the mystery, but the final payoff is just plain weak. And the more I played, the more I started to hate Emily — she’s manipulative, toxic and a walking red flag.
[i]Remembering Emily[/i] takes an unusual approach to visual novel storytelling, relating its tale by way of the memories of the protagonist Thomas, through sessions with his therapist, Noah (or so it seems). [h1]Overview[/h1] Over the course of seven chapters, each containing one either/or choice which gifts a Steam achievement per option selected, and a conclusion which alters dependent upon the choices made prior (thereby functioning in a similar manner to the original [i]Cinderella Phenomenon[/i]), we learn how Thomas met the enigmatic titular character, became both entranced by and wary of her; and ultimately how their relationship played out, and the impact it had upon his workmate and admirer Kate, and her brother William. Presented with options for both Spanish and English, the game looks appealing with a gentle colour palette, attractively large sprites over nicely drawn, uncluttered backdrops. There are also a few CGs along the way, albeit without a gallery to view separately. [h1]Experience[/h1] What Remembering Emily does well, is to draw in the reader to the budding relationship between the primary characters courtesy of a finely crafted script which constantly creates elements of intrigue in the mind, only to then throw in a twist at the closure of a chapter and cast a cloud over any judgements that may have been made up to that point. By the end of the game, certainly in one of the two possible outcomes, the story performs a neat little dance around the expectations leaving the reader caught off-balance by its final revelations. Another nice little touch involves the references to real life things that many of us will recognise, with several distinguishable social media sites being used by the cast, and even a conversation involving an instantly identifiable, successful visual novel also available on Steam. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3551603348 [h1]Positives[/h1] • Well drawn, pleasing graphics. • Strong, interesting script. • Pleasant piano-based supporting soundtrack. • Options give some narrative variation and two endings. • A good, fast, history log (accessed through the menu tag “Story”). • Plenty of save slots. [h1]Negatives[/h1] • No backstep function. (Mitigated somewhat by the good history log). • No skip function. This is a big one as second playthrough becomes very tiring on the hands having to manually tap through all of the previously seen captions. • Incomplete English translation edit: (1) a collection of relatively minor typos. (2) persistent transposition of he/him/his and she/her/hers. (3) two Spanish captions slipped through without any translation at all. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3551603163 [h1]Verdict[/h1] Unquestionably, the first read through of this story is a rewarding affair with its likeable characters, interesting relationship dynamics and regular repositioning of expectations; all told in a manner that feels fresh when compared with the standard narrative style of the overwhelming majority of visual novels. However, second playthrough does err more towards work than leisure due in large part to the absence of a skip read-text facility, creating an avoidable user-unfriendliness aspect. Achievements are awarded for each different user choice made and for reaching each of the two available conclusions, making 100% completion attainable without frustration. A complete, steady game experience should last in the region of 4 hours, though this does allow for “skipping” manually during the second pass. I have played through the game [b]only[/b] in English, and despite some shortcomings outlined above, overall the translation quality is sufficient to ensure that everything can be understood at the first time of asking, although it would have needed only a quick onceover by a native speaker to provide the polish that is lacking in this respect. Close, but no cigar; as the saying goes. Bearing in mind that this is a first-time indie studio release and the creators have gone to the trouble of providing an English version right off the bat in addition to the Spanish original, and have also produced an original and entertaining story with pleasing graphical and audio support; there are enough good reasons to recommend the game overall, however.. there does remain a question on the price set. At a full price of £9.29, [i]Remembering Emily[/i] invites value comparisons against its peers of a similar size, and undertaking such checks leaves it looking somewhat on the expensive side with just 4 hours gameplay and a limited store of user functions within. Whilst it is undoubtedly worth your time, it may be most prudent to keep an eye on pricing, and nip in when it is either repriced a little more moderately, or the subject of a sale discount around 30%.

So I played through this in English and it's a really fantastic story! The twists and turns really kept me engaged and trying to unravel the mysteries. I think my initial reaction was "Eh, predictable" but the more I thought about it, the more I found that I really didn't see a lot of it coming. I noticed the English translation has quite a few errors in it. I tried to ignore them the best I could, but for a visual novel, immersion is so important and so many typos can take away from core moments in the game. I do recommend the game but I really hope someone looks at the English translation. However, I still really enjoyed the story and the art was nostalgic and sweet. I really liked it.
I really enjoyed this short visual novel. I liked some of the twists of the story and the different endings. My only complaint is there are some typos in the English translation and just a personal preference, I do not like noah's design.
[h1]Todo lo que escuchamos es una opinión, no un hecho...[/h1] y todo lo que vemos es una perspectiva, no una verdad. La alternativa era: ¿que no se, que es, que me apunten en la cabeza con un arma?; soy de LATAM, xD es casi seguro que algún día te hacen saber esa sensación (y en el mejor de los casos solo llega a eso); Emily claramente no es de LATAM, y que bueno la verdad. Pero hay que hacer énfasis en las perspectivas, temática esencial de la obra. [Breves agradecimientos a Tortita Studio, que considero mis reseñas dignas y suministro una copia de su pequeña propuesta de NV; un primer trabajo competente, solo hay que trabajar un poquito más los personajes, un poquito de mas drama entre las chicas se hubiera agradecido; Kate es un ángel] [h2]>A Grandes Rasgos:[/h2] Pues... esta novelita visual, de cuna española, es la propuesta de 2 personitas que basan la mecánica de la historia en los recuerdos difusos, y su complementación, por medio de elecciones y puntos de vista a lo largo de la misma, lo que medio puede confundir en un inicio, hasta que no se entiende: Es la misma historia y ending(?), deja jugar un poco con la interpretación al lector, lo que brinda un buen clímax, el cual no se espera y dos "endings" bastante bien logrados= uno feo y otro feliz. Como siempre en el nicho: considerar que tan asiduo lector seas; la presente es una obra "breve" de intriga-drama, competente para leer con un café. [u]De que va la historia:[/u] Nos ponemos en los zapatos de Thomas, un chico que de manera "casual" se encuentra en una cafetería a Emily, una chica que comparte muchos gustos similares con él, y comienzan una relación de amistad... sin embargo este encuentro fortuito, da la sensación de no serlo, cuestión que logra brindar la obra de una manera un poco obvia, y lo que nuestro prota percibe, aun así, siempre ganara el amor... así que la relación se desarrollara invariablemente. A razón de lo anterior, Emily no es la chica que parece y esconde cosas, a lo que se nos brindaran elecciones en determinados puntos de la historia, que variaran el sentido de la misma o en algunos casos la complementan, que es la mecánica propia del título: complementar las elecciones/puntos de vista para tener un relato completo, por lo que se resume a: es una pequeña novelita visual de intriga-drama, con tergiversación de la historia como mecánica. [h3]>Lo Bueno:[/h3] +La intriga inicial se mantiene, que es lo que le da sentido a seguir leyendo la obra. +Tiene una linda historia, detrás de todo lo entrecortado, hay un ending feliz. +El climax es bueno; y toma congruencia hasta que se entiende que es una sola "línea" historia; ya que sin saber nada, da esa sensación de "Memento" o "Rayuela" xD +Al menos se le dio su lugar a Tolkien, de mi Tolkien no van a hablar mal. +Tiene momentos memorables; aunque lo de la pistola pierde impacto si eres de México. +Tiene logros de mero trámite; si se juega/lee completa la obra. +Se nota la labor en la interfase. [h3]>Lo Malo:[/h3] -Como siempre digo en pequeños proyectos indie: echarle tierra a la obra de un pequeño team de creadores es ser cretino de parte de uno, más si no es artista o programador; hacer un videojuego es muy difícil, y hacer un BUEN videojuego es Tryhardear. -Dicho lo anterior: tiene déficits propios de ser la primer obra de un equipo compuesto de 2 personas, como el poco desarrollo de personajes y que las ilustraciones se repiten, pese a ello es una historia competente de intriga drama. [h2]Resumiendo[/h2] Pues... como siempre digo en las Novelas Visuales; lo único que hay que considerar para adquirirlo es que tanto se guste de la lectura... pues es literal un género de "nicho" la presente obra juega bien con lo que plantea; la historia es amena, mantiene la intriga, y deriva en un clímax único al usar las perspectivas 7/10, por cuanto a su duración es una novelita corta: 2 horas o más dependiendo el lector, el clímax lo considere bueno y al menos los endings están bien, por cuanto al la temática entra dentro del género de intriga-drama. Sin nada más que agregar, se le desea suerte al proyecto de los developers, es una obrita competente para ser la primera; y recuerden: la practica hace al maestro; leer mucho y escribir otro poco, puede auxiliar.

[h1]¡RECORDANDO A EMILY JUGÓ CON MI MENTE![/h1] [h2]SINÓPSIS[/h2] "RECORDANDO A EMILY" es una novela visual donde exploraremos la mente del protagonista THOMAS, para desentrañar los recuerdos que están siendo bloqueados debido a un trauma que experimentó... [spoiler]la muerte de su amiga Emily.[/spoiler] Con cada capítulo obtendremos pistas e iremos rebuscando junto a nuestra terapeuta NOAH para recordar ¿Qué fue lo que realmente ocurrió? [h2]PUNTOS POSITIVOS[/h2] Después de terminar el juego y ver los dos diferentes finales que tiene, puedo decir que lo que hace a "RECORDANDO A EMILY" una novela visual especial sería: • Ilustraciones con gran detalle, sobre todo las de Emily. • Excelente progresión de trama ya que no dejan cabos sueltos. • Una historia llena de teorías que van cambiando con cada capítulo. • Un inesperado final que estoy seguro, nunca te esperarías... [h2]PUNTOS NEGATIVOS[/h2] Pero como no hay juego perfecto, también tiene puntos negativos como: • La toma de Decisiones solo lleva a dos finales y no cambia en nada la historia principal, lo que les quita importancia. • No tiene opción para regresar y cambiar de decisión, ni tiene skip de diálogos en la segunda partida para sacar el otro final. • A los personajes secundarios les faltó un poco más de expresividad. [h2]CONCLUSIÓN[/h2] Sin duda alguna, RECORDANDO A EMILY es una novela visual corta (aprox 4 horas) que no deberías dejar pasar, sobre todo si te gusta el misterio y las tramas que explican todo a detalle sin dejar cabos sueltos (además sin rellenos o historias secundarias innecesarias), además si al inicio estás pensando que es muy predecible, conforme avances vas a ver que todo lo que pensabas estaba mal. En fin, para ser su primera novela visual esta muy bien, ¡Felicidades Tortita Studio!, no dejen la ambición de mejorar para su siguiente proyecto y sigan creando historias inesperadas como esta (lo espero con ansias). ⭐Gracias a Tortita Studio por confiar y proveer una copia para probar y reseñar "RECORDANDO A EMILY"
