Voevodsky’s type theory works the same way, in this case memories instead of proofs. The right one “surrounded” by close to the right ones. Its”s not spatial but rather based on memory merit. Messing with the Fields medal Erik. Too bad there’s an age limit buddy!
This isn’t just a rulebook—it’s a love letter to our inner archives. The idea that memories must be tugged from their web, not summoned like files, hits deep. Especially the reminder that first-person recall is the true win condition. There’s something sacred in that standard—a demand for presence over narration, experience over abstraction.
The tactile memory of the dog’s neck folds, tied to his daughter’s hand-clutching? Devastatingly beautiful. Made me pause and remember my own childhood dog’s sigh as I buried my face in her fur when the world felt too big.
This “game” is now going in my nightstand drawer. For long walks. For long days. Thank you, Erik.
Homebrewing rules is not just allowed, but actively encouraged. Perhaps a written description that depicts a memory could be substituted, and so allows another to consciously experience its sensory details, instead of the player themselves.
Aphantasia is not only making visualization impossible, it also causes serious problems with recalling memories. Names of the teachers in the 8th grade is easy, it's verbal memory, recalled many times; first kiss, a grandmother's smile, first steps of your child - all impossible.
Love this! Could we say that re-membering is a form of meaning-making?
That's sort of the light side take, compared to the dark side take of "changing irrevocably." So I like it.
This is that rare combination: fun and beautiful

I'm not sure if you ever worked with a homeopathic doctor but this process is similar to how she determined which things I should take to treat me
Unplayable with aphantasia ...

This is a beautiful articulation of what I do in my EMDR therapy
