Blue Wednesday is a point-and-click adventure developed by Buff Studio and released in 2023, available across PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, iOS, and Android. The game follows Morris, a jazz pianist whose uneventful days begin to shift when he meets Angela, a saxophonist, setting a story in motion about love, failure, and music. Players explore the fictional city of Evans through conversations with a cast of neighbors, cutscenes, and choice-driven interactions that influence the narrative and determine which items are collected. Scattered throughout the city are rare music albums spanning genres including tango, bossa nova, and various styles of jazz, alongside sheet music that feeds into rhythm-based gameplay. Mini-games appear at key story moments, with their outcomes shaped by earlier player decisions. The overall tone is contemplative and character-focused, with music serving as both a mechanical element and a central narrative theme.
