A Game for one player with a deck of playing cards, 3 six-sided die, and either a lighter, scissors & tape or a red marker & a black marker.

UIT//MS is a game about dealing with the social anxiety around interacting with the same people day in, day out, over the course of who knows how long.

It takes place on a single day in one person’s life and represents the last hour or so before their work day ends.

During play you build a spread of cards that represents both the people you’re talking to and the conversations you have during that time frame.

You roll dice to determine how your character perceives the impact the conversations have on their friends, and how they themselves feel after. You answer question prompts to determine details, and you try to make it to the end of the day.

CONTENT WARNING:

This is a game about anxiety, and playing it can lead to a headspace related to those kinds of feelings. It also involves scissors, tape, and sometimes fire (though it does have alternate rules for those events allowing markers instead). Do not use these elements if they make you uncomfortable or you cannot do them safely. Burn things in a sink with a working faucet or a cup of water nearby, and be careful to not burn yourself.
