PEOPLE
Migle Railaite : Game design, concept, and visualsFirst Youth is a conversational board game in which players engage with a metafictional abstraction of Railaitė’s interpersonal relationships by interacting with representations of her friends while embodying aspects of Railaitė herself. Players must navigate decisions about where to invest time, discerning which connections are worth their energy and which are not. The game emphasizes the profound impact friendships and relationships have on personal well-being, underscoring the idea that while all experiences hold value, understanding ourselves is crucial for making informed judgments about where to direct our energy.
