About Memento Mori

A game made for the ones we lost on the way.



Experience a surreal, linear walking simulator that explores the themes of death and grieving the passing of a loved one. Waking up in a unknown forest, you find yourself lost and looking for answers, will you find what the clarification you have been looking for or will you find more questions then answers.

Dealing with grief and loss


A thing that everyone is forced to deal with for as long as humankind came into being is loss and grief. So we wanted to make a game that wasn't just special to us but that can also be special to people struggling with the same issues.

A show don't tell journey


Memento Mori is a show, don't tell experience that can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone no matter what language they speak due to the lack of dialogue and text.

WolfWare Studios


WolfWare Studios is a independent game development duo who started making Memento Mori during the second quarter of 2022. Before the production of Memento Mori both Shea Kelly (Creative lead) and Alekzandar Voynikov (Technical lead) made video games for game jams and to produce a medium they have both loved for as long as they can remember.

This game's really nice. But, i havent gotten to finish it! Theres some kind of bug i can't get around. As soon as i get in the elevator, i get booted into an abyss. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a hallway scene. the graphics also look different from the pictures, so I don't know if it's because I have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ computer or if theres an actual bug. But otherwise, i reccomend!

Memento Mori is a very quiet game, but I found that the silence is actually one of its strongest features. I wake up in an unfamiliar forest with no real explanation of who I am or what has happened, and the game expects me to simply move forward and pay attention. I liked that approach because it immediately made the experience feel more personal and reflective instead of giving me a pile of exposition. The gameplay is extremely simple, with most of my time spent walking through the environment and looking for clues about what is going on. There are no complicated systems to learn and no combat to distract from the story. I enjoyed taking my time with the surroundings because the game relies heavily on visual details and atmosphere to communicate what the character is feeling. The show and do not tell approach works surprisingly well here. Since there is no dialogue or traditional written story, I have to interpret the environments and events for myself. I liked that because it gives the experience a more dreamlike quality. I was not being told exactly how I was supposed to feel, so the meaning of what I was seeing felt more personal. The forest is also a great setting for this…

Don't really know why this is in my library but considering that it is free it was a nice enough 15-minute walking simulator with some artistic merit and a story it successfully tells without using any words.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
