About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

Desta: The Memories Between is a strategic, turn-based action title. The game explores themes such as introspection and self-reflection focusing on the main lead character, Desta, as they navigate a dreamlike world.

Desta: The Memories Between is a character-driven rogue-like, featuring an immersive story, strategic turn-based tactics and… a metaphorical ball-game?

From the creators of Monument Valley, Desta: The Memories Between is a story of broken relationships, words left unsaid and the chance to explore your own dreams for answers.

Through its gameplay and characters, the game explores themes such as introspection and self-reflection focusing on the main lead character, Desta, as they navigate a dreamlike world.

This game contains themes of self-reflection, anxiety, mental health, loss of parental figures and gender identity. Player discretion is advised.


"All the characters you meet in the game helped Desta become who they are – there's a lot about loss and finding yourself, which are themes that I'm sure we can all relate to. We hope players enjoy exploring Desta's dream worlds, and the reawakening that follows," said ustwo games Chief Creative Officer, Danny Gray.
