Our take on Désiré
Rather than using a colourful adventure setting, Désiré presents its world entirely in black and white through a colour-blind protagonist. Its story also replaces a conventional treasure-seeking structure with an examination of emotion, perception, and a society focused on consumption and profit.
What is Désiré?
Désiré is a black-and-white point-and-click adventure centered on a colour-blind protagonist who experiences the world without colour.
Beginning in childhood, Désiré encounters characters who provoke intense emotions and change his perspective in unexpected ways. The game presents a critique of modern society and its focus on consumption and profit. Its structure includes four chapters, more than 50 scenes, over 40 characters, and numerous riddles. The story asks whether colour lies at the end of Désiré’s journey. Some material may be inappropriate for players under 16.
