May 2025
Amnesia™: Memories is not your average otome game. Beneath its elegant art and romance-driven premise lies a surprisingly dark psychological labyrinth that explores identity, agency, and trust. Originally released in Japan and later localized for a global audience, this visual novel from Idea Factory’s Otomate brand stands out for its unique storytelling structure and emotionally charged writing. But while it dares to ask smart questions about who we are in the eyes of others, the execution can sometimes stumble under the weight of its ambition. You awaken with no memory of your name, past, or relationships—your very self wiped clean. A mysterious spirit named Orion informs you that your amnesia has pushed him into your consciousness, and now you must quietly rediscover your life before your memory loss is discovered by others. The twist? The game is split into five parallel “worlds”, each with its own version of your life and its own romance route—each tied to a different love interest. Think Sliding Doors, but with bishounen and emotional trauma. Each route presents a different personality and relationship dynamic: from the cool and distant Ikki to the fiercely loyal Kent, and the more controversial paths like Toma’s obsessive protectiveness. These aren’t just love stories—they’re psychological tests. Who can you trust? What kind of relationship did you really have before? Are they telling the truth? What makes Amnesia stand out is its focus on emotional ambiguity. You’re not building a romance from scratch—you’re reconstructing one that already existed. And sometimes… that’s a dangerous thing to do. The character designs by Hanamura Mai are stunning—distinct, expressive, and full of personality. The backgrounds range from whimsical cafés to moody streets, giving each route its own tone. The UI is slick and intuitive, and the soundtrack blends delicate piano pieces with unsettling ambient sounds to underscore both the romantic and psychological tension. Voice acting (Japanese only) is excellent across the board, with each character’s performance adding depth and nuance to their emotional arcs. As a visual novel, gameplay consists mainly of reading and making key dialogue choices that branch the narrative toward various endings—good, bad, and heartbreakingly twisted. There are multiple endings per route, and the wrong decision can spiral things quickly into dangerous territory. The game encourages replayability, and it rewards you with a fuller picture only after completing all the routes. The “true route,” unlocked at the end, adds a powerful emotional layer and reveals the game’s overarching mystery. It’s slow-burning, text-heavy, and light on interactivity—but it’s gripping, especially for those drawn to character-driven storytelling. While Amnesia™: Memories is compelling, it’s not for everyone. The pacing can be sluggish, especially in the early stages of each route. The protagonist is mostly silent and passive—a common trope in otome games, but one that may frustrate players looking for a more active heroine. Some romance dynamics, especially in Toma’s route, can be uncomfortable or problematic depending on personal thresholds. The game doesn’t shy away from psychological manipulation or power imbalances, which might be a deal-breaker for some. Amnesia™: Memories is a bold entry in the otome genre, offering more than just sweet dialogue and fluttery hearts. It’s romantic, yes—but also eerie, tense, and emotionally complex. For players who enjoy character psychology, mystery, and narrative experimentation, this is a journey worth taking. Just be prepared: the truth isn’t always pretty, and love—like memory—isn’t always what it seems. Best For: Fans of psychological romance, mystery lovers, otome veterans Rating: 8/10

made me scared more than a horror game, but i recommend it. downloaded it becuz its an otome game but the plot got me instead. idk it was more like a thriller-mystery thing more than romance to me maybe it was due to Ukyo's horryfying smiling sprite appearing in bad ends or constantly playing bgm (i loved the soundtracks, it was just not that soft for a romance game) idk if anyone wants to hear about it, my faves are: Kent (the most sensible and redeemable romantic interest, i don't even remember him doing something bad) Ukyo (his route feels like the right one even though there were so many morally gray things going on--maybe even black lol) Ikki (overall I like him) Orion (wish we had his route) About other LIs: Shin: He got on my nerves with his awful shaming jokes and him constantly saying "dumb" etc. His character design is GORGEOUS but i cant say it about his personality. He's just too irritating in his route idk it pushed me off Toma: I felt pity for him when I played his route, and he didn't attract me either. Maybe because of the bad endings, they didn't make me orientate towards him. The rest of the characters were cool, I would like to see Rika more she was very interesting to me. Btw ofc you can't judge the character's actions like they were humans (i mean they can be morally gray and be still lovable, i can't enjoy the game if I only try to see their faults) but I think the important thing is to make sense of it, namely make it meaningful. Ukyo's actions are meaningful but as for Shin and Toma: nah. Toma felt like I was watching a pitiful mentally-ill murderer's shtty life and Shin was just an annoying classmate trying to bully me. I don't hate them yeah so thats it.

Highly recommend to finish every route to find out how this game is surprisingly good. There are 5 routes, the last one will unlock after you get all good endings. I played for Toma but I loved this game because of the plot and how they portray it. Romance - 6/10 Plot - 100/10 Opening song - 10/10 Kent the best boy - 10/10 Toma the best boy in another way - Toma/10 Not one of the best otome games I've played but it will take a special place in my heart. I will play more visual novel otome games because of it.

This was my first otome game. I'd recommend it as an intro the genre but there are definitely titles I've enjoyed more now that I'm familiar with them. The most unique thing about Amnesia is the narrative choice to make your internal monologue a separate character in the form of Orion. I have kind of mixed feelings about this, it is one way of separating the protagonist's thoughts that allows for a more conversational exploration of the situation but sometimes you just want to kick that bug boy out of your head. The story told is also pretty good though it is more of a route focused game than one central narrative. I usually prefer a more cohesive narrative but each route here is very pretty good and a couple of them I enjoyed a lot (Shin, Kent). This is also a good PC port with no major issues. Many other otome games have fairly low quality ports, so this is a bonus and it runs great on the Steam Deck.
