Released in 2017 for PC and Nintendo Switch, Indygo is a narrative adventure and visual novel with point-and-click puzzle elements developed as an indie title. The entire game takes place within a single painting workshop, where a depressed painter has been confined to his room for over three months, his isolation deepening as his condition persists. His girlfriend Anna remains a central presence, and together they face the question of how to move forward. Players read letters, solve puzzles, and consult the painter's journal — which documents his mental state in detail — while making decisions that shape the direction of the story across multiple possible endings. The workshop environment itself shifts visually to reflect the protagonist's psychological condition. Handmade artwork and an original soundtrack contribute to the game's melancholic atmosphere. Indygo is specifically designed to portray the experience of depression and mood disorders with sincerity, aiming to reduce stigma around mental illness.
