don’t believe the hype

mixed reality puzzle?

Attempts have been made to describe The Game. Let us be absolutely clear:

  • The Game does not innovate. It brings nothing new; only reconfigures that which already exists.
  • The Game demands that ludens are highly innovative.
  • To be a part of The Game you will need to use whatever resources are available to you: free or otherwise.
  • The Game is not developed by one person in isolation.
  • The Game is not simple.
  • The Game will compel you.
  • There will be workshops, but you will not be invited to most of them.
  • The Game will be public.
  • The Game will be private.
  • The Game starts now. We do not know when it will end.
  • The Game is not a treasure hunt.
  • You will need to invest heavily to be a part of The Game.
