Welcome

Nordic Larp Wiki collects information about nordic style larp games and their design tools. Only tools that have been actually play tested in games or presented in published articles are presented, this is to keep the database coherent and accessible.

What this Is

• A concise database over game design tools, games, groups, movements, schools and conferences.
• A relevant and useful toolbox for larp game designers. Pretty humorless.

What This Isn't

• A complete reference to anything ever thought or said about larp design.
• A who's who of the nordic scene, this wiki is about the work and persons are only referenced through attribution.
