An adaption of Charlie Jane Anders award winning story, Six Months, Three Days tells the story of one relationship, between the two only clairvoyants on the world. One sees a predestined, inescapable fate, the other a spectrum of possible worlds to choose from. When the two of them intersect, can their relationship end in anything but tragedy, or is there more than one way life can turn out?

Winner, Bedste Fortælling
En poetisk kærlighedshistorie om de eneste to mennesker, der kan se ud i fremtiden. Fortællingen lader spillerne bruge rollernes evner til både at nyde det magiske øjeblik og frygte forholdets endeligt, der langsomt kommer nærmere, som månederne og dagene rinder ud mellem hænderne på dem.
Nominated, Bedste Scenarie
Et lille, tight og fantastisk kortspil. Alt overflødigt fedt er skåret væk, og tilbage står et modigt scenarie, der både ved præcis, hvad det vil, og som stoler betingelsesløst på, at spillerne kan føre det ud i livet.
Nominated, Specialprisen
Et unikum af spillederløst rollespil, hvor manglen på spilleder er nødvendig for at kunne få scenariets mission til at lykkes. Alt fra formidling til form arbejder sammen med det spillederløse format og giver et scenarie, der går længere med intimitet, end det er set før.
