Forget-Me-Not: Myosotis
A downloadable game
In Forget-Me-Not: Myosotis, you create characters, people and stories by the memory left behind after their deaths. Those memories will also die themselves, one day.
With time, a deck of cards, and a writing implement, create entire lives, built from bricks of memories and history. Even with time, those bricks may fall, but the dust they leave behind will remain. At the end of the game, you write a eulogy of the deceased, ending with an epithet, describing them and their life.
This game is considered a journaling game, and as such is best enjoyed with a cup of warm tea, a long afternoon, a typewriter or laptop, and a morbid sense of curiosity and wonder.

Thank you so much for playing. Beyond honored.
Forget-Me-Not: Myosotis is a solo RPG where you tell the story of a recently deceased through their loved ones' (and possibly enemies') memories. Once they're buried, they're reduced to an epithet, and even that would be one day be forgotten.
This is an incredibly inspiring game. The questions really made me think and Myosotis helped me with the character creation of a lost relative in a story. It was beautiful to go through the process of journaling down the memories of this individual and see them come alive, even after death.
Thank you for making this.
This comment means so much to me, thank you. Really glad you enjoyed!
