GREENWASH!

GREENWASH!

You are the CEO of a naughty, naughty company. Can you convince the public that your totally real green agenda outweighs any pesky pollution you might be doing on the side?

There can only be one industry leader. Get ahead of the competition by accusing others of greenwashing! Just make sure they’re not using the same tactics as you…

GREENWASH! is a competitive card game with elements of social deduction. Players assume the roles of CEOs and take turns building their companies by using both profitable industry cards and public image enhancing greenwash cards, all the while accusing each other of greenwashing in an effort to come out on top.

It’s Election Day!

It’s Election Day!

Nowadays, climate awareness is a topic more relevant than ever, especially in a societal environment where we are misled by our politicians, who mask their selfish ambitions. Can you hear the voice of true values amidst the noise?

The live-action role-playing game It’s Election Day! takes place during the electoral campaign of a fictional country created by the players themselves. The characters represent members of different groups—politicians, journalists, and other citizens—each advocating their own views to shape public discourse. Join and experience the new dimensions of a democratic scene!

During this game, you will get familiar with the factors that can form an individual’s opinion, facing the task of investigating the politicians by all means you have in your hands. Using the influence of a whole community will shape their future here. This future depends on a single decision: will you find the path to a brighter perspective, or will you listen to deceitful voices instead?

What is a LARP? A Live Action Role Playing (LARP) is an interactive game in which players assume the roles of characters, interact with each other and their environment, and collaborate to tell a story. Unlike traditional board games, LARPs require players to physically embody their characters and act out scenes in real time.
