'KultUr - Was besser verborgen bliebe...' was the first nordic-larp inspired larp in Germany. It was inspired by criminal-mystery series like Mrs. Marple or Sherlock Holmes and set in a H.P. Lovecraft inspired world in the 1920s in Germany.
Summary 1920s, post-war, countryside, excavation,
Runs Originally planed as a one shot, the larp was held three times due public demand. Setting, location and basic plot weren't changed by the organisers, the personal for NPCs and organisers only had minor changes. The outcome for the differed a lot, as the participants interpreted the characters, their tasks and goals diffrently. Also escalation in the plot sturcture was interpreted diffrently. This was not only tolerated but intended by the designers.
