What we're doing is giving users a sense of connection and completion, and showing them that memory loss shouldn't define you. There should be tools that aren't pandering to you and making you feel like a baby. But respect you, play with your memories, and can break that isolation. It's just a joy to behold. The power of a simple game to bring us joy and connect us.
