Played Alice is Missing this weekend.

It is a worthwhile experience, but it can be emotionally charged.

We struggled with the timer-based ending, as our story ended before the clock did.

My suggestion: Turn off the clock at 10 minutes and end the game when it feels right. It's too impactful of an experience to have a timer stopping the game given the deep subject matter.

This game needs room to breathe and let the characters come to a natural ending point for this chapter in their lives.
