Acorn: A Map-Making LARP About Squirrels
A downloadable game
Acorn is a map-making LARP about squirrels for up to six players. Let’s break that down!
A map-making game is a game that includes cartography as a game element. In this game, you and the other players will be drawing on a map that starts as a blank piece of paper - don’t worry about being a good or a bad artist. Together, you will be creating a beautiful forest, no matter how skilled you are with a pencil or crayon.
A LARP, or live-action roleplaying game, is a game that involves interacting in the physical space as well as the imaginary space. This game includes phases of using props and walking around and interacting with the room in which you are playing, while still playing your role. In this game, there are also phases of sitting at a table with your paper and pencil, just like in a “tabletop” roleplaying game.
A squirrel is a small rodent that usually lives in trees and buries food such as acorns, nuts, and seeds for later consumption. They have adapted well to urban areas, are often desensitized to human interaction, and are common enough in North America and Europe to be considered a pest by some, despite being generally charming. In this game, everyone is going to be playing a squirrel as their role.
