An absolutely delightful and heartbreaking game. It has simple mechanics and plays quickly. We played from the perspective of an old cherry tree in a park on a space station and by the end I was in tears. Goodness gracious. A beautiful game.

a simple, elegant, wonderful game that organically develops character growth and allows relationships to joy, sadness, and everything in between transform into something new. i played a setting and it was so cool, what a neat way to approach joy and sadness.

a beautiful, short and bittersweet little game following the special little moments in the life of a shared character. I love how versatile it is--you can play a pre-existing character, use it to build a backstory or narrate an epilogue for a character from another game, tell the story of an inanimate object... any setting, any character, and it's bound to be a lovely and heartwarming (and in some cases, heartbreaking) experience!
