"Strandfall is a sci-fi story set in a post-apocalypse, with an emphasis on climate change, co-operation, and adaptation."
I'm in the early stages of designing a world/game focused the same topics, in part because I simply want more stories like this to exist. I live an ocean and a continent away, so of course I won't be participating, but I don't know if I've ever subscribed to a newsletter so quickly. Looks like an absolutely brilliant idea and I hope it's successful!
I'd be extremely interested in participating if a version of this ever came to my corner of the world. Even if it doesn't, just knowing about it is inspiring and motivating :)

Thank you! We will be documenting the larp a lot more in the coming weeks, including videos and a tech rundown, so sit tight :)

The whole paragraph that starts with, "Smartphones are anti-enchantment devices" is gold. Love where you are coming from with this.

I love that there’s an organization nurturing this kind of experience in the UK - Immersive Arts[0]
The US doesn't even track diseases or fund vaccines, they aren't going fund a string of fanfiction buzzwords.

Today I learned the Nordic larp style is not the global default. As a Swede who's only ever participated in 2 larps,I hadn't realised people do it differently elsewhere!
I really don't see how leveling and experience points would work in a larp, but then I'm not exactly a experienced larper!

Only vaguely related: is that tiny receipt printer at the end of the article real or is it itself a mockup? (It appears to be smaller than any of the ones I've come across, and google image search was unhelpful.)

It’s real! It’s an Epson TM-P20II, designed for mobile use - it even comes with a belt clip.

McNair-Feldman Device sounds very futuristic. Props for coming up with that name. I want to participate just to find out what we could do with it.

"Smartphones are anti-enchantment devices."
