Best Month Ever!

Best Month Ever! is a narrative adventure set in the late 1960s United States. You follow Louise, a single mother in her late 20s, on a road trip with her clever 8-year-old son, Mitch. She tries to teach him how to navigate a often cruel world and become independent, suave and brave.

Louise and Mitch

Your choices in crucial moments shape Mitch’s values and the person he becomes. As you make decisions, you learn more about Louise’s past and face difficult situations while deciding what Mitch needs to see and learn.

Choices and endings

Dialogue and actions affect three statistics: Righteousness, Confidence and Relations. These track Mitch’s growth and influence which of the game’s nine endings he reaches. Quick-time events also test your reflexes.

Across the country

As Louise and Mitch travel, they meet characters who may help or discourage Louise. Their journey takes place amid the upheaval of the 1960s, including the Summer of Love and the Vietnam War, and brings them into contact with controversial groups many thought long gone. The game uses stylized artwork reminiscent of the era.

Original soundtrack

The included soundtrack contains 29 folk, country and jazz-inspired melodies composed by Jędrzej Bączyk, also known as Pan Jędras. It runs for nearly 80 minutes and provides the musical backdrop to the characters’ journey across the United States.
