When the Screens Went Asleep

When every digital screen in Kampung Seri Paya suddenly goes dark at exactly 7:17 a.m., curious Eddy and his friends Arif and Mei Lin discover an abandoned signalling tower, a mysterious blue machine, and a forgotten experiment designed to preserve the sounds of village life. But when the machine begins collecting memories and growing stronger, the friends must uncover its secret before the entire kampung becomes trapped inside a world of recorded memories. Along the way, they discover that some things—stories, laughter, friendship and the memories shared between people—are far too precious to leave inside a machine.

The Fish Who Swam Backwards Through Time

When Lina encounters a mysterious glowing arapaima at a marine attraction in Kuala Lumpur, she discovers that the enormous fish can swim backward through time. Guided by strange blue tiles, an old photograph, and the memory of a boy named Daniel, Lina and her younger brother Amir uncover a forgotten promise from 1987. But the fish isn’t asking Lina to change the past—it wants her to make sure the past is remembered. As rain floods an abandoned part of the attraction and an old secret resurfaces, Lina must follow the fish’s trail and complete a promise that has waited decades for someone to find it.

The Rainy Day Busker of Jalan Alor

When JL hears a mysterious melody from a young busker playing beneath a blue umbrella on a rainy evening at Jalan Alor, she discovers that the tune connects to an old photograph, a hidden notebook, and a forgotten musician from her mother’s youth. With her new friend Haris, JL follows a trail hidden in the noisy heart of Kuala Lumpur and learns that the real mystery isn’t who wrote the song—it is why it was left unfinished. As rain, memories, and an unexpected storm bring the neighborhood together, JL discovers that some stories survive not because they remain unchanged, but because every new person adds something of their own.

The Secret of the KL Central Market Clock

When four curious friends—Eddy, Esther, Catherin, and Lily—discover a mysterious diary hidden behind an old clock at Kuala Lumpur’s Central Market, they uncover a forgotten promise made by four children many years ago. Guided by cryptic clues, a strange clock that always stops at 4:17, and a secret hidden beneath the market, the friends must retrace an unfinished adventure before the mystery disappears forever. Along the way, they discover that the greatest treasures are not always objects—and that remembering the people and places that shape us can be a promise worth keeping.

Waking Up to Yesterday

Joined by her husband Beng and her long-lost childhood friend Mei, Jas follows a trail of forgotten memories that leads back to Nini, a little girl they once promised never to forget. As yesterday and today begin to overlap, Jas learns that growing up doesn’t mean abandoning the people and promises that shaped you—it means carrying them forward with you.
