Lost Post
A downloadable game
To send a letter is a good way to go somewhere without moving anything but your heart
- Phyllis Theroux
Lost Post is a Lost and Found story game for one player.
Play as a letter adrift in the postal system. An unopened letter is filled with possibilities, and its contents are unfinished and changeable until it is opened by its intended reader. Decide who wrote you and who you were written for, and fill out your pages over the course of the game.
Choose your Carriers, learn their names and personalities, and create stories as you travel around the world. How will you be remembered once you finally finish your journey?

I recently did a live flip through of Lost Post, and I really love the premise of this game! There's lots of content to help players build out an interesting playthrough, and it's easy to learn how to play.
In this video, I flip through several games, but I have it time-stamped for when I start Lost Post, if folks want to see more of what's included in the PDF.
Thanks so much for covering Lost Post, and I’m so glad you liked it!
I absolutely adore lost and found games, and Philippa Mort does an incredible job with Lost Post. From the moment you open the game, Philippa sets the mood with art, color, and wonderful prose.
There is an amazing set of options throughout. All the prompts - from the opening Act and all the different Carriers of your lost letter - are beautifully written. The writing drawing you in and making it easy to imagine yourself as the letter trying to find its way.
This game is definitely worth your time.
