A slow landing is a technique for ending a larp, often accompanied by a [[slow take-off]].
== Description ==
Rather than the larp transiting from "in-game" to "over" at a given moment, players spend some time in an in-between state where they do not communicate with each other but spend time thinking and reflecting. Slow landings are typically meditative, and may be accompanied by music and/or the voice of an instructor guiding the transition.
== Uses ==
The slow landing may be used for purely aesthetic reasons, but is also intended to help players begin [[de-roling]] by providing a private space for thought and reflection. Additionally, it makes it easier for players to form divergent opinions on a larp experience, before the majority opinion can be discerned.
