this world is not yours

The world is slow to change, yet ever-changing, and we are mere players on tiny stages that we have somehow managed to make revolve around us. Fortunately, the world continues to spin despite our attempts to slow down time. With our time here, where should our focus lie? On ourselves? On the world around us? On each other?

Ultimately, what legacy are we leaving behind when it is time to pass on, and what are we giving to those who come after us?

In this world is not yours, one player plays the roles of numerous families over the span of four generations, while the other person plays the role of the house they live in. Over time, the families change and grow, while the house remains as it was, yet still changing and growing with the families as they do. 

Players alternate taking turns exploring three different elements of their shared history: Events, Environments, or Emotions. These are written on notecards and laid out between players, creating a visual representation of what is left behind.
