StoryBeacon
You just stepped through

Turn your memories into a world you can play.

This is what your board feels like from the inside. Your places. Your milestones. Your path. Scroll to walk it.

The idea

A board built from the story only you could tell.

The coffee shop where you met. The trail you always hike. The fair where he threw 40 darts and won exactly zero prizes. We turn those real moments into a real, playable board game — each memory becomes an illustrated landmark on the board, and a challenge card in the deck.

So when someone lands on a star square, they draw a card about that exact moment: reenact the dance, retell the story, settle the trivia. You don't just look back at your memories — you compete over them, around a table, until someone reaches the finish.

How it works

Three steps between your memories and your table.

From your story to your doorstep in a few weeks — we do the crafting, you do the remembering.

1

Tell your story

A short, cozy questionnaire — your favorite places, milestones, and the inside moments that make you laugh every time.

2

We build your world

Artists illustrate your real places as landmarks on an actual, playable board. Writers turn your moments into the challenge deck — dares, memory prompts, and trivia about things that really happened to you.

3

Play together

Roll and hop square to square through your own life. Land on a star, draw a challenge — reenact the moment, retell the story, settle the debate. First to the finish wins.

Questions

Asked often, answered warmly.

How long does it take?

Standard and Deluxe boards ship in about 4 weeks — real humans illustrate every board, and good things take a moment. Need it sooner? Rush ships in ~10 days.

How does the personalization actually work?

You fill out a short story questionnaire — favorite places, big milestones, running jokes, and a few photos for reference. Our illustrators turn the places into board landmarks, and our writers turn the moments into your challenge deck. You review and approve a proof before anything prints.

What happens to my photos and memories?

They're yours, full stop. We use them only to create your board, we never share or sell them, and we delete them from our servers 90 days after delivery (or immediately, on request).

How many people can play?

2–6 players out of the box — 6 wooden pawns included, one for everyone at the table. Games run 30–60 minutes.

Can I see the design before it prints?

Yes — every order includes a digital proof of your board and a sample of your cards before anything goes to print. You can edit your card text and approve on your private order page.

The last square

Your story is worth playing.

The finish portal is glowing just ahead. Step through it — and come out holding your own world.
