Aphantasia is a condition in which some people are unable to visualize mental images. I didn't realize until my teens that when someone said something like "imagine you are on a beach... see the sand, waves, etc" that a lot of people actually see that in their head. This game is a rough attempt to show visually how a person that can't "picture the scene in their head" recalls memories. At times it can feel like sifting through a world of words to put the right ones together. Sometimes it's an easy path to follow. While still others require a bit of a fight for the last little details.
