Twain: A Short Game for One

 

 

 

Long ago, you had a twin, and the two of you used to do magic together.  You stopped because life got in the way; your twin did not. The two of you lost touch. 

 

Now you have chosen to follow a dream about your youth, coming to a meeting place to find them. 

 

Your twin is not here. 

 

 

 

Twain is a mythical layer on top of your real life. You play yourself, with a few changes.  Answer prompts as if they were true by writing directly on the beautiful game materials.  

 

Then, play out a live scene in a personally meaningful outside space to explore your relationship with a fictional twin who grew up to do all the magic that you never got around to. 

 

The instructions begin, "Find a pen you love..."

 

The full game takes approximately an hour, sometimes a little longer or shorter.
