An ambitious film student named Haruhito Kawaai loses his mojo when a friend and fellow auteur Samasuke Hina is killed in an accident. To recover from the shock and dismay, fellow film students, the sister of the fallen artist, and other characters engage the protagonist and help him find his footing again. Similar to a standard interactive adventure, Memories Off plays in flick-screen action where spot animations accompany static images while reams of text fill the dialogue box on the bottom of the screen.Upon starting the game, a dandy in a red double-breasted suit is walking while cherry blossoms flutter to the ground. The protagonist joins him in a similar red jacket and then a girl joins the two as they walk from school followed by a fourth classmate. Once home, the protagonist is visited by Samasuke's younger sister Asuka, who is dressed in a school uniform and microskirt. Asuka confides to Haruhito that a girl named Mahiro Sendou caused Samasuke's demise. After some banter, a 60-minute Mini-DV tape is located which contains a short film collaboration between Haruhito and Samasuke which was not completed due to Sam's untimely death. Will the film ever get completed? Did Mahiro Sendou cause Samasuke's death? Can mojo be recovered? Only you can answer those questions...
