Beskrivning

Burn the Witch is a Chamber LARP game that explores injustice, family drama, romance, church vs state and grief. The game was created as part of the February game kitchen.

The players are part of a tiny 17th century hamlet. After a series of ill-fated events, a powerful Witch-Hunter arrives, declaring that a witch is present and must be routed out, lest their devilish power corrupt the hearts and souls of all who dwell within the village. Fear and paranoia set in as the close-knit village begin to suspect each other and even members of their own family, secrets are revealed and hidden agendas carried out. Eventually the Hamlet must decide who amongst them is the witch and burn them at the stake.

Community roles are randomly allocated through card draws, such as the Witch Hunter, the village Priest who will battle for the villager’s souls and the village Elder who will try and maintain control in an ever more chaotic situation. Then the players will come together to create their own unique village. Just in time for the shadow of black magic to change it all forever.

Content Warnings: Simulated death by burning, arguments, accusations, injustice, religious extremism
