missed messages. is a psychological adventure and interactive fiction game that explores themes of mental health, relationships, and communication. The game places you in a dorm room where you, as the protagonist, must balance your attention between an anonymous sender of memes and your pink-haired roommate, May, who appears to be struggling.

The game features four unique endings: Missed, Forgive, Hope, and Survivor, with the outcome heavily dependent on how you choose to engage with the characters and the subtle hints provided. Your decisions regarding online distractions versus real-world interactions significantly impact the narrative, making each choice crucial.
