continuing on to RULES... these gorgeous, inspiring diagrams (by Ruohong Wu) and @pippinbarr's v r 3Permalink Look on archive.org

v r 3 especially has been great for hearing kids and adults have in depth conversations about their favourite water, the qualities they like, that that one at the back is way too expensive at $20 (you can play it at home: pippinbarr.com/2017/03/29/v-r-3/)Permalink Look on archive.org

and probably the game with the consistently biggest crowd, Dobotone. 4 players, a carousel of mini games and a console anyone can reach over to change the parameters of the game in real time. (& it all comes in a self contained box that starts automatically!)Permalink Look on archive.org

it's really sweet & I'm really happy with how it works within the flow of an exhibition but also lets people actually make something, and see the process by which that becomes a game, and then shown in one of our beautiful & professional-looking cabinets.Permalink Look on archive.org

okay! final proper room. Landscape. we got: Geoguessr (playable here: geoguessr.com/). You're on a road. Where are you? What type of tree is that? Is that Cyrillic on that road sign? Pick out a spot on an atlas.Permalink Look on archive.org

Fairmile. (@edclef, @elirainsberry, @R_Michalak, @S0phieH). Walk the hills, pick things up, leave things behind. I had a moment just letting this wash over me when we were setting up.Permalink Look on archive.org

Titonic Fisherman by @froachclub. Y'all I am so pleased we commissioned this game.Permalink Look on archive.org

LED Gameboard. We commissioned a new game mode, "Sounds of the UK", which is great because it was made by two Germans and so has a very particular view of what Britain is like.Permalink Look on archive.org

Oh! And Listening Automat, a game with 4 musicians and cards you can show to them to make them play particular things (or play on yourself, to hear differently). Yesterday it was in the courtyard, not in our artist's room.Permalink Look on archive.org
