What is a Keepsake Game?The term keepsake game was coined by game designer Shing Yin Khor to describe some of their games, such asA Mending, and those they co-created with Jeeyon Shim, likeField Guide to Memory. In a keepsake game, players create memorable artifacts, or keepsakes, that they wish to hold on to beyond the end of the game.InFive Hundred Year Old Vampire, keepsakes take the form of artifacts players create and share with each other throughout the game, and which are collected and celebrated together at the conclusion of the game. In the game, players are encouraged to see the artifacts not as great works of art so much as unique tokens of an experience.
