Evaluation

She Remembered Caterpillars launched on January 17, 2017 as a self-contained puzzle game with 40 levels. All developer communications prior to launch focused on polish, localization, and release preparation — there were no promises of post-launch DLC, expansions, or ongoing content. The store description describes a complete, finite experience with a defined level count and a self-contained narrative. No post-launch news posts exist, and no DLC has ever been listed for the game. The developer has not communicated any plans for additional content after release. The game launched as a finished product and remains so.

About this game



She Remembered Caterpillars is a color-matching puzzle game with an unsettling fungipunk aesthetic. Set in a phantasgamorphic world of writhing caterpillars, brightly-colored Gammies, and living architecture, the game will have players eavesdropping on what appears to be one scientist’s quest to save her father.

As the chapters progress, more of this strange universe will reveal itself: what manner of cataclysm occurred here? Who are the players involved? And what exactly are the Gammies doing in these dreamscapes?

Winner of Intel Level Up Game Demo’s Best Puzzle Game Award, She Remembered Caterpillars will test your capacity for problem-solving, dropping you into puzzles of escalating difficulty, each building on the lessons of the last.
