Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
All the Stars Above (Alle sterren van de hemel) is a grief therapy board game created by Dutch art therapist Daisy Liuten after losing her own mother.
It’s a roll and move game with lights, glass beads, an Indian talking stick, a wooden sun, and a sand timer that doesn’t have any winners or losers, just questions to get you talking about the deceased.
It costs 250 EUR. Plus shipping. Question 3 of her FAQ is “Why is the price so high?”
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
You’d think she could at least throw in shipping.
Her answer to question 3: I didn’t print millions, only 2000. Well, even then, that’s mighty expensive!
My first game was a limited edition hand-assembled print of 300 copies which sold for 15 GBP each. Of course, no wooden sun or Indian feather stick.
