About the game

Brzegowo, an old mill. In 1946 workers face flooding; in 2026 a museum archivist needs help. A wall niche carries messages across eighty years. One team understands the old machinery and passages, while the other sees traces of later alterations. Their letters reveal the complete picture. Across six rounds, each team takes two actions, compares documents and sends a letter or sketch. Decisions in the past change present-day options. The game master uses eight prepared states and clear action rules. Rescuing people is the main goal; saving the archives earns full success. For 4–8 players aged 12+, split into two teams of 2–4, plus a separate game master. Teams need separate stations without direct conversation or a view of each other’s materials. Play is offline. All game materials are in Polish; this is an English product description. The estimated 90–150 minutes of play and roughly 30 minutes of setup after reading remain unmeasured. Digital files and all logical states have been checked. Human sessions and a physical print check remain pending.

What is included?

Two sets of 12 documents, eight paired views of the mill across time, six portraits, two A3 maps assembled from A4, six round cards, eight state cards, 12 letter forms, three choice cards, a finale and three journals. Separate Start and game-master guides with the full state matrix and hints. New opening pages for every file, colour and black-and-white sets, and a print guide.
