Players control protagonist Ashley Mizuki Robins to explore and solve puzzles in Blood Edward Island (Two Memories) and Lake Juliet (Journey into Lost Memories). Interaction with the non-player characters still retains the visual novel style segment from the original games, but with the addition of the voice acting and fully 3D models.[2] The remake introduces an optional escalating hint system, where it hints the player if they ever get stuck or missed a puzzle.[3]
Plot
Two Memories
In 2005, a thirteen year-old Ashley Mizuki Robins arrives to Blood Edward Island on a boat with her aunt Jessica after she recieves a letter from her father, Richard, who believed to be dead. After Jessica goes missing, Ashley explores the island, an encounters a ghost of a 10 year-old boy named D. Together, they search for clues on Jessica and Richard's whereabouts, and restore D's memories in the Edward mansion.
Journey into Lost Memories
Two years later, now sixteen year-old Ashley recieves a call from her father for a camping trip to Lake Juliet. After she arrives, she starts having flashbacks of her mother, Sayoko from thirteen years ago on the same lake. As Ashley searches for clues, she befriends a thirteen year-old boy named Matthew Crusoe, a runaway who is searching for his father's disappearance.
Development and release
A Nintendo Switch remake of the point-and-click adventure games: Another Code: Two Memories,[lower-alpha 2] released for the Nintendo DS handheld console in 2005, and its sequel, Another Code: R – A Journey into Lost Memories for the Wii console in 2009, was first announced during September 2023's Nintendo Direct.[1] It also marked the first time the sequel was being released in North America, as the original game was only released in Japan and European countries. In addition to enhanced visuals, puzzles and music, Recollection will feature fully explorable areas and voice acting in cutscenes, which were not present in the original games.[4][5] That same day, Taisuke Kanasaki, who served as a director, art director and character designer for both original games confirmed that he returned as an art director for the remakes.[6] A demo of the game was released on Nintendo eShop on December 14, 2023, which allowed the progression from the first chapter.[7]

Recollection received "mixed or average reviews" on review aggregator website Metacritic.[8] Chris Scullion of Video Games Chronicle rated the game positively, saying that "while it lasts, however, Another Code: Recollection is a beautiful adventure game with a touching storyline that only goes to remind us why Cing's closure all those years ago remains such a loss."[9] GameCentral on Metro UK gave the game a mixed review, praising the visuals and artwork, but stating that they felt the script and the puzzles were weak.[2]
