What it is about
You are a slug impersonating a human. Don’t get caught! Slowly is a mini solo LARP meant to be played publicly, in secret. (You can also challenge a friend to join.) Play for a whole day, at the office, on a nature hike, or for 10 minutes on the bus. Move as slowly as you can without getting caught. Refuse multitasking. The human world around you may be hectic, but you are secretly a slug — and that is fantastic. The only trace you leave behind is an abstract slime trail map, drawn at the end of the game. Artistic liberty encouraged. Notes: Remember to play safely (when in traffic, cooking, etc.) Playing may have a calming or unnerving effect on people around you... “Going slowly” means different things to different people. Set your own pace (but don’t forget the challenge). Add as much or as little slug lore as you like. Slowly was made for the 48-word RPG jam by: www.melanieorenius.com
