Humour, Memories and Love Await in Mydear.exe
If you’re looking for a cozy little game that might leave you reaching for a box of tissues, MyDear.exe could be worth checking out. Developed by French indie studio Falling Leaves Studio, the emotional interactive adventure is now available on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Priced at $7.75 USD (regional pricing may vary), MyDear.exe is also offering a 40% launch-week discount, making it an affordable way to experience this heartfelt story. The game marks the debut release from the Bordeaux-based studio, which has brought together a touching concept and a collection of charming interactive activities.
Described as an interactive love letter from a husband to his wife, MyDear.exe tells the story of Ellie and Lucien through an unusual setting: the folders of an old PC. Players explore a Windows XP-inspired interface, uncovering photographs, documents, and personal memories that gradually reveal the couple’s life together.
Rather than following a traditional linear narrative, the game takes a nonlinear approach, allowing players to explore its digital world at their own pace. Along the way, various minigames and puzzles offer glimpses into the couple’s relationship, bringing moments of love, humour, and nostalgia to the experience.
Interestingly, the project comes from a developer who previously worked as Game Director and Producer on the critically acclaimed The Rogue Prince of Persia, making this a rather different creative direction.
With its nostalgic presentation and deeply personal storytelling, MyDear.exe looks like a lovely little experience for anyone who appreciates emotional games. Just don’t be surprised if a few of its memories hit closer to home than expected.
