Millimemory is a game that was already in non-US/European markets when this project landed on my desk, and is already popular in Japan. My task, under employment of the board game publisher Arcane Wonders, was to give this charming game a refreshed design to appeal to US markets. Knowing this game was likely going to appeal to families, my goal was to create a charming, relaxing and visually appealing game for both adults and kids.

For the cover, my inspiration came from a let's-play review of a game reviewer who played the Chinese version with children and noted how delightful it was that in order to try to remember the length of an object, they would 'mime' holding it in their hands or interacting with it. This informed my initial cover sketches- children's' hands holding pencils and coins- but I simplified this to a scene of everyday objects laying neatly next to each other on a grid. These initial sketches also included a concept title logo: a cloth ruler forming Millimemory in cursive.
