'SIGN' A SILENT LARP
'SIGN' A SILENT LARP
'Sign' is a game is based on the history of Nicaraguan Sign Language, designed by Thorny Games. Nicaragua in the 1970s had no official form of sign language. In 1977, something happened. Fifty deaf children from across the country were brought together to a school in Managua. Without a shared language to express themselves, the children did something remarkable—they created one. In Sign, we followed a journey inspired by that story.
Thank you to @kopriva.space and @vanessaprincessa1312 for hosting us. This as a game about communicating without words. We drew marks on our arms each time there was a misunderstanding. Many moments of confusion and also great moments of connection.
