Your ticket has arrived - and it's inviting you to the Mind Garden!

When the weight of memory becomes too much, retreat into the Mind Garden—a place where time flows differently and healing awaits.
Awaken at dawn in a surreal garden populated with residents who seem to know more about you than they initially reveal. Complete simple quests throughout a single day, collect memories for a mysterious flame growing at the heart of a tree, and slowly piece together fragments of yourself.
As the day progresses, so does your journey toward an uncomfortable truth. The garden holds answers, but are you ready to face what you've been avoiding?
Mind Garden is a short, intimate experience (1-2 hours) featuring handcrafted artwork scanned from original crayon drawings and real childhood videos.
Keep a journal of your discoveries, interact with the garden's quirky inhabitants, and decide whether to remain in blissful detachment or confront what lies beyond the garden's boundaries.
In the space between memory and reality, sometimes the only path forward requires courage—and fire.
A personal, poetic journey about finding the strength to face what we've locked away.
