Beyond The End

3 Contributors

Beyond The End is a project aimed at aiding parents in initiating conversations about death with their children. It transforms this potentially challenging topic into an engaging story-based board game.

Through Little Pillow's quest, families can navigate the three galaxies together, fostering understanding and communication around the complexities of life and loss.

Our main character, Little Pillow, embarks on a heartfelt journey three days after their grandpa's passing, driven by curiosity and a desire to understand. Discovering a mysterious box with a vibrant poster linked to their grandpa's adventures, Little Pillow decided to explore the planets on the poster in hopes of finding their grandpa and understanding the meaning of death.
