A note from the founders

Neil and Lauren, co-founders of Mysh

"Hi, we're Neil and Lauren. We built Mysh to be screen time you feel good about, as your child expands their imagination and brings heroes and worlds to life. Enjoy!"

— Neil & Lauren, co-founders and parents to Ashwin (8) and Leo (3)

A game parents can actually trust

We built Mysh for our own kids first. Here's what that means for yours.

No strangers

Kids play with family — never randomly matched with people you don't know.

No ads or upsells

No banners, no pop-ups, no "buy gems to continue." Just the game.

Privacy-first design

We don't sell data. We collect only what's needed to run the game.

Screen time with substance

Reading, imagination, and decision-making baked into every story.

Backed by University of Waterloo — Velocity

What parents & kids say

Real feedback from families playing Mysh today.

50%+

of parents surveyed say Mysh isn't considered screen time... it's more akin to music lessons or creative skill building.

"When they play, we see what's in her head come to life in reality."

"While building stories they're learning spelling and grammar, building literary confidence and a love of learning."

Cynthia, parent — Cynthia, parent

"This is a great after school or weekend activity that promotes reading and creative thinking, as opposed to watching a show or playing a game of a snake chasing around and eating dots."

Jeff G., parent — Jeff G., parent

"None of those worlds have given him the space where he can really explore that alchemy, and bring to life the products of these explorations and flights of fantasy. I think that's absolutely magical and marvelous."
