Please Note: This news post contains spoilers for Memory’s Dogma CODE:01!
With the release of Memory’s Dogma CODE:03, CODE:04, and CODE:05, the story is now complete. While Kickstarter backers have been able to read the conclusion to this story already, the remaining light novels are now available for sale to the public.
Originally released on Steam on November 4, 2016, Memory’s Dogma was a Kickstarter crowdfunded project with large ambitions. However, due to funding overruns, the story was never fully released. While some fans who played Memory’s Dogma CODE:01 might have been left scratching their heads over the ending the developer and scenario writer, Takahashi Wataru has since said that without the continuation to the story the ending does leave a lot to be desired. While there was not enough funding to finish the story in game form, Sekai Project agreed to work with Takahashi-san to present a proper ending to Memory’s Dogma and thus helped fund the translation and artwork needed to do so in the form of five light novel releases.
Memory’s Dogma CODE:03 serves as yet another branch from the main story. Instead of escaping with Reina and Kakeru (Reina Route), the main protagonist Hiroki escapes with Akane and Ema to their hideout. Here the story branches again as Akane goes to investigate an apartment her father once lived in while Hiroki and Ema stand nearby as lookouts. Ema suddenly tenses up and notices a mysterious girl that wasn’t there a moment ago. Little did anyone know that her mere presence would make Ema question her very existence. Thus begins the Ema Route in the Memory’s Dogma series.
Memory’s Dogma CODE:04 forges a different path with Hiroki escaping with the police officer, Haruna where she hopes to link up with Assistant Inspector Ryusenji Tetsuya. He suggests using a special police terminal to communicate with the memories of serious criminals in order to gain more clues as to the conspiracy surrounding the JCO. It’s here that they are contacted by a mysterious man who has a connection with Haruna long sealed childhood Memories.
Memory’s Dogma CODE:05 ties all these storylines together. We will leave it there as to not spoil what
happens in this final volume. To all those searching through memories, the door to the truth is now open.
