Dordogne is an adventure video game developed by Un Je Ne Sais Quoi and Umanimation. The player completes puzzles to help a woman recall her past. Focus Entertainment published it for Microsoft Windows and multiple consoles in June 2023.
The player controls a woman named Mimi who, in 2002, travels to Dordogne after her grandmother Nora's death. There, she attempts to recall her childhood. This is done through puzzles and minigames as Mimi relives her experiences with Nora as a preteen in the 1980s. [2] The player can update Mimi's holiday scrapbook with mementos. [3] The art style resembles watercolor paintings. [2]
Focus Entertainment released it for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows on June 13, 2023. [4] The temporary iOS version was released on January 30, 2025, until it was removed from the App Store in March 18, 2025.
On Metacritic, Dordogne received positive reviews for Windows and PlayStation 4, and the Switch version received mixed reviews. [5] Game Informer said it is "like a charming French indie art film come to life". [2] Rock Paper Shotgun said the puzzles are simple, but it is "a very sweet and tender coming of age tale". [3] Though they were disappointed by the narrative, Slant Magazine praised the art. [6] Nintendo Life enjoyed the storytelling and the game's "poetic expression", but they found some of the gameplay and performance on the Switch to be frustrating. [7]
