Missing Month

Remember the Forgotten Things

When I was a child, my grandmother would tell me of another world—a world that steals away time. She'd speak in whispers—while candles flicker in the night—about a world of magic so different from ours.

"Have you ever noticed the days when mornings would turn quickly into late afternoons seemingly in the blink of an eye? Or a much longed for summer vacation ending suddenly when you're so sure it had just begun?"

I nod, pretending to understand, and she would smile—knowing the truth.

"That's when you disappear into this world of magic,” she continues, “spend some unknown time and then you come back here without any memory of it."

“No memory at all?” I asked.

“None,” she replied, with a faraway look. “Not until you come back and do it all over again.”

She shakes her head, as if getting rid of cobwebs, and finally she turns her focus back on me.

“All that time adds up—to become a missing month.”

Missing Month is a game of remembering and saying goodbye. It is a game to build worlds using timers and a deck of cards. It's also a game made to tell stories and worlds where none existed.

Use it to create your worlds, whether for a home game, or a novel or even an audio drama - all in just 2 hours and 30 minutes.

"This game is dedicated to my late grandmother who told me stories by candlelight. Stories about my grandfather fighting monsters to make sure we were safe.

I love you and I miss you."
