A personalized game gift for your sister for Thanksgiving: your memories as a level they can play

What the game is, in one page

Photos show a moment; a game lets her walk through it. oin builds a small pixel world around your story, with her as the main character, so the memories are a place she moves through rather than a slideshow.

The story is built from what you fill in: an authorized photo for the main character, two letters, a 5-question quiz with flowers for correct answers and up to two custom NPCs. The final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon.

What to write in the two letters

Use the first letter to set the scene of how it began. Use the second for where you are now and where you hope the story goes.

Five quiz questions to start from

Pick the five questions from different years so the quiz itself tells the story in order.

• What did we get wrong about the road trip?
• What does Dad or Mom always say at dinner?
• Which relative told the best story?
• Which dish is the family favourite?
• Which holiday do we still talk about?

Why it suits your sister

A sister has the longest shared history in your life, so the game can be as silly as you like. Childhood nicknames and family legends make the best quiz questions.

Let the first letter tease and the second say how much you actually rely on her.

If Thanksgiving is tomorrow

Thanksgiving gifts can be small. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

Host gifts do not need to be large. A pie, a candle or a plant is enough, and a personal letter matters more.

How to make it, step by step

• Choose a clear photo of her that you are authorized to use, and the pixel character is generated from it.
• Write the two letters: one opens the game, one closes the final level.
• Add a 5-question quiz about your shared memories; each correct answer is rewarded with flowers.
• Add up to two custom NPCs, friends or family, as long as everyone who appears agrees.
• Pay $29.90 once; the game is generated automatically and usually emailed within an hour.

Price, delivery and refunds

You see the price for your region before you pay: $29.90, once, with nothing to renew. The checkout is run by Polar, the Merchant of Record, and the game is generated automatically and usually emailed within an hour, with a private link that works for a year and a copy to keep. All sales are final once delivery starts, but you get a full refund if the game cannot be generated or delivered, if you are charged twice or if it is faulty and cannot be fixed. See the refund policy.
