About Désiré

Désiré is a poetic point-and-click adventure game in black and white.

When the schoolteacher asks Désiré why he didn't draw the sun like the other pupils, he replies spontaneously: « It's always night in my head. »

Désiré is colour-blind from birth and he will lead you into in world of black and white. He marches on hesitantly, as life never brought him much joy. From a tender age, he is going to meet several characters who will elicit in Désiré intense emotions and alter his vision in surprising ways. Is colour at the end of the road?

The game is, at its core, a critique of the modern world and of the perverting nature of a consumer, profit-obsessed society.

The game contains 4 chapters, 50+ scenes, 40+ characters and a lot of riddles.

Some material may be inappropriate for under 16.

✦ AI summary

Players agree the game features jarring and explicit sexual content that dominates the experience, along with themes of misogyny, homophobia, and other offensive material that many find deeply problematic rather than meaningfully provocative. While some appreciate the art style and music, most feel the shock-value edginess serves no constructive purpose and makes the game difficult to recommend, particularly to mainstream audiences who would find the content objectionable or alienating.

First of all, the nudity and sexual content can't be overstated and is significant, especially for a mainstream American audience. There are two instances of topless women as well as one section where the main character is outside a giant clitoris and conversing with a pubic louse; this section also involves a phallic object interacting with the clitoris, causing there to be dripping moisture. The references to sexual content are also not minor and include graphic descriptions of a BDSM scenario involving scat and force-feeding detergent to a tied-up "slave." It's difficult for me to recommend this title just because I know so many people for whom this would be a deal-breaker, and I personally would have liked this game a lot better if it had been toned down a little and some of the most egregious and - to my mind - unnecessary elements had been removed. However, this is also a genuinely interesting game with well-designed puzzles (with the one exception of the sports quiz that other reviews have referred to). I didn't like the protagonist, but his thought processes were intriguing and I found the game and its world engaging. When the game finds a good balance with its dark subjec…

TLDR: Fun to play. Interesting game. Ruined by disgusting undertones and explicit sexism, misogyny, homophobia, and paedophilia. Cannot recommend as the insinuations, lack of education and general hatred toward some groups of people needs eradicating from further minds. I read all of the text. Not only does the game unapologetically retain deeply sexist, misogynistic, and homophobic themes, but it alludes to paedophilia as basically an innocent, non-criminal act if used purely for 'personal purposes'. Such sentiments in a 2018 game? Naturally made by men with solely men in mind. As a woman, to play a game in which a woman is depicted from the waist down, oversized to the point of gigantic size, laid asunder on a street corner, being sexually 'teased' (in fact assaulted as no consent was even basally implied) by an obscene phallic candle which rubs itself sluggishly along her (outer) clitoris until a wet drop sploshes down, it's just disgusting. And to top it off, these same men are confounded by women. What do they want? How to get their respect and attraction? How about not depicting them as objects for your pleasure, and then judging them by your subjective, uneducated sexist st…

Late review... umm this game is interestingly odd to say the least. I rate it 6/10 I like the black and white vibe mostly. Also spoiler alert you'll see a huge vagina I think. I haven't played this game since beginning of 2019.
