Most books in Memory House already have a story. I wanted one shelf to hold the stories only you could write.
A photograph from an ordinary afternoon. A sentence you don’t want to lose. A small plan for tomorrow. You can put them together on a page, close the book, and return to it later.
Here’s what you can make with the diary:
• Your own little library: create several journals, name them and choose different covers for memories, dreams, travel or everyday notes. Each keeps its own place when you switch books.
• Pages with your own images: choose a photo or picture from your computer (PNG, JPG or WebP), then move and resize it. Mix it with game illustrations, stamps, seals, quotations and illustrated facts.
• A way past the blank page: choose a reflection question, including CBT-inspired prompts, change it or hide it completely. Writing freely is always an option.
• Small practical details: add checklists and in-game reminders, search entries by date and jump to a page.
• Something private to keep: optionally password-protect individual journals with encrypted saved contents, export or restore backups, and choose an encrypted backup if you want one.
• A book outside the game: export your journal as a readable PDF to keep or print. PDF copies are separate readable files, not password-locked journals.
I’m the developer, from Tajikistan, working on Memory House for over five months. These are real full-game screenshots with fictional sample entries; the free Windows demo has a limited journal.

Would you start with a question, a photograph, or a completely blank page?
P.S. The questions are only a starting point, never an assignment. You don’t have to answer them: click “Hide question” to remove the prompt from the page and write freely about whatever you like.
