Shards of Memories: an Art Puzzle Adventure is a mind puzzle game that takes you on an emotional adventure. It is a game that brings out the sad beauty of despair, and contrasts it with the sentimental hope for joy. It focuses on the things that matter in life, beyond all the games for adults we are used to playing.

The Shards of Memories gameplay is intuitive and easy to use. By putting the pieces to the frame, you will recollect memories, deep thoughts and feelings of the main character. Things that represent moments in time, captured by the mind.
ENJOY A MEMORABLE ARTISTIC EXPERIENCE
The atmospheric and artistic game setting is provided by the collaboration of the story, photography and music. All of these elements leave a unique, dramatic impression, that in the end, proves to be very rewarding.
DIVE INTO THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE GAME
Shards of Memories has a strong psychological theme and it faithfully describes a specific state of mind. The game explores what it takes to move on and get over a meaningful relationship. In dealing with anxiety and depression, the protagonist uses introspection to better understand his emotional past. By doing so, he hopes to find a way of coping during a difficult period in his life. While the game allows the players certain psychological insight, it also provides a pleasant stimulation for the brain and promotes visual thinking.

Beautiful!

Beautiful game and music. Amazing how something so simple can be so moving. Now, to figure out that alternate ending....
Neat idea, poorly executed
Rskrenger
This puzzle game reveals a story, line by line, as you complete puzzles (visual form puzzles, not mental puzzles). The idea of that is intriguing to me, semi-reminiscent of games like Everybody's Gone To The Rapture, and Its different enough from other games on the App Store that I bought it despite not having any other reviews to check beforehand. I made it through two chapters before I quite and deleted it. The only reason I made it that far is because I'd paid for it and wanted something for my money. The story's intended purpose is to make you want to finish the next puzzle to uncover the next piece of the story; unfortunately the story itself is poorly written, there are numerous shifts between present and past tense, the pacing is clunky, and rather than being intriguing the narrator's vagueness is simply frustrating, so after just a few lines it's clear the story is not enough to pull one through the game. The story would be forgivable if the puzzles were good in their own right, but they are numbingly boring. To be fair, each puzzle is the shape of loosely story related item (for example an umbrella when the narrator states he's glad it's not raining) with a blurry, similarly loosely related picture in the background, which is neat, but again poorly done and not exciting enough to make me want to keep playing despite the story. It's essentially two boring things mashed into one boring thing. It's a one-star game, honestly, but I like the idea of it so I added another.

Excellent! Moving story with brain challenging puzzles. Also beautiful graphics. I highly recommend it.
Outstanding

Thank you so much for producing this game! I really enjoyed putting the pieces back together so to speak. I found the soundtrack to be excellent and very well suited to the tone of the experience. The storyline (and twist!) were also compelling. Totally worth the purchase price!
Not worth it
Sagequeen
Some of the artistic things were nice, but overall, I'd rather have not wasted my time on sub-par storytelling and overly simplistic simple puzzles. Overall, a slow, frustrating experience.
Boring and predictable
kenjideath
The gameplay is repetitive, the story is predictable and the "alternate ending" isn't worth the time of finding it.
An unique game, worth of time and money

Personally, I'm not the type of person to leave reviews except if it's really worth for my personal gaming experience. This game consists an unique storyline, beautiful art in the atmosphere, and well balanced challenge. It's a new kind of mental game that I find it to be entertaining. Just know that it has a simple story, yet you can create your imagination in your own world. For me, it gives me the feeling of being in Silent Hill, which I am a fan of their artwork. I'm hoping to get more of this kind of game and to be the first few fans out of thousands.
Reset me when I tried to exit

I was I think half way through the first chapter and when I backed out of it, it sent me back to the beginning. Small detail but very important.
Awful

The story left me reeling and really crashed my good mood. The puzzles are incredibly simplistic and the whole thing took me about 45 minutes to finish. If I could give zero stars I would. Also wish I could get a refund.
