    02

    Open When, made from your memories

    A linen keepsake box of envelopes, each marked “Open when…” in handwriting: when you miss home, when you have had a terrible day, when it is your birthday and I am not there. They flick through the box, take out the one that fits today, and open it with their hands: crack the wax, tear the flap, unwind the string. Your letter unfolds and is written out, with your photo, and your last letter waits until every other envelope has been opened.

  3. 03

    A keepsake to come back to

    Every photo and every word you added, shown large, on a page that is theirs to reopen.

After you pay, a short form asks for the names and for these:

How it plays

A few minutes they will not forget.

About half a minute a letter, kept for weeks or months

  1. Flick through the box and take out the envelope that fits today.

  2. Crack the seal, tear the flap, peel the sticker or pull the ribbon to open it.

  3. Read the letter, put it back, and come back when another day comes.

Tap an envelope to take it out, then press, tear, peel, wind or pull with one finger.

Nobody can lose. The game helps anyone who gets stuck, so they always reach what you wrote.

Good to know

Do they need to install anything?
No. The gift opens in the browser on any phone or computer.
What if they are not good at games?
This one has nothing to get wrong. It is unhurried, and they always reach what you wrote.
Can I see it before I send it?
Yes. You play the finished game and see the keepsake before the link exists.
When do I add my photos and words?
Right after you pay. The link is only created when you are happy with the gift.
What if I spot a mistake after sending it?
Change it. The words, the photos and the options can all be changed afterwards, and the link stays the same.
How long does the gift stay online?
At least a year from the day you create the link.
Who can see our photos?
Only people who have the link. Your photos and words are used for this gift and nothing else, and you can delete the whole gift from your account at any time.
Can I get my money back?
No. A gift is made for one person from the moment you pay, so a sale is final. That is why you can open a full sample before you buy, see your own finished gift before the link exists, and still change it after you have sent it.
