A downloadable game

'Close to Home’ is a short larp about memories of colours, spaces and connection. The game builds on the memories of the participants in the form of drawing floor plans of rooms from their childhoods. These rooms then get connected, filled with characters and form the home of a community. At the end we imagine how the larp was that we never played in these colourful spaces. The story of a community emerges “in retrospect”, from larping a debrief session.

Physical contact: Might include moderate contact; eg. hugging

Romance and intimacy: Not relevant for the larp

Conflict and violence: Not relevant for this larp

Communication style: Lots of speech and some Silent/Non-verbal Play

Movement style: Dancing

Characters: Players create their own characters, in a workshop

Narrative control: The story is almost entirely determined by player choice

Transparency: Fully transparent – players can know absolutely everything in advance

Representation level: The fictional space looks very unlike the play space

Play culture: Players are collaborating to achieve joint aims

Tone: The game aims to create a feeling of togetherness in the players.
