The game Alice Is Missing is about 3-5 high schoolers in a small town trying to find out why their friend Alice is missing and where she is. The first stage of the game is character development--players create their character's appearance, pronouns, and motivations while assigning character traits to each other. After that, they assign links and backgrounds to various NPCs and locations in town. Then the game starts.

The core gameplay is a narrative-driven timed session that takes place entirely via text message. Players are not allowed to speak during the 90-minute gameplay. Instead they message the entire group and each other, crafting a narrative about teenagers struggling with life and Alice's disappearance. Every 5-10 minutes, an event happens that is organically integrated into the text chains until they find out what happened to Alice.

The game's potential to have dark themes is encouraged and reinforced within the gameplay, so it important to set up lines and veils prior to the game's start, and it encourages (and comes with) the 'X' card if those lines are crossed or realied throughout gameplay.

A critique would be that if the players aren't up for some light to heavy improvisation, they may struggle at first. This is, still an excellent and innovative product.
