In a remote country house, you hesitate. The esoteric new age self-development seminar is about to begin.

Promptly, however, the escalating ceremony leaves your ego behind. The spiritual pilgrims begin to hungrily explore the associative, symbolic, and synesthetic planes of remedy.

Whisper! Mumble! Cry out!

Far in the distance, the Mountain grows and growls. To find its heart, the pilgrims need to traverse surrealist scenes of avant-garde innovation. Gratefully, they are aided. The music of the world is their wind, their bodies are the wings.

Pace! Skip! Swirl!

Yet, the path is uncertain. Will the pilgrims ever find the Blackbird of the Ridge? The infinite emotional expression of self-dissolving unity? The moment that they could call the present?

Superrealism is an experimental live-action role-playing game about looking for and finding that premiered in Stockholm Scenario Festival 2022.

The game is non-verbal and played through movement and embodied expression. The game explores expressing and feeling emotions, and is therefore psychologically demanding. The game is recommended only to those players who wish to explore non-verbal expression of emotions, and for those, previous playthroughs have been inspiring.
