Knutpunkt is an international conference about Nordic style larp, held this year in Gullbrannagården, Sweden. In the spirit of “focus in 2014“, my recap is much shorter than last year’s.
Random larpish memories
· Seeing the attempts at renaming “Nordic larp” into “progressive larp”. Does this mean intellectualized, self-indulgent […]
Most of my exposure to Nordic larp goodness comes from attending Knutepunkt, and Mad about the Boy (MatB) is no exception. I remember a presentation in 2011, and a quick chat with Trine Lise Lindahl (one of the authors) in the KP cafeteria, telling her how cool this stuff was, and something like […]

The goal is to roleplay a sequel to the burlesque movie Tournée by Mathieu Amalric.
It’s a great idea, […]
Sure, sometimes they overhype things. They twist the meaning of words like “alibi”. They say “fucking amazing” when any reasonable person would say “great”. They take a full page to describe a “game” that is actually just an improv exercise that could be summarized in one sentence. By the time you’ve understood what their […]
Lizzie Stark blew my mind. I used to say that Nordic Larp was the best book about larp and Organiser une murder party en 6 étapes the best pdf (how to organize a small one-shot larp). I just finished reading Leaving Mundania and now I need to add […]
That’s right, now you can watch most of the French and Swiss larp videos and pics we showed at Solmukhota 2012. And you get to drool at all the cool food and drinks you missed!
The 1-page pdf can be downloaded here, it also contains links to the organizer’s websites, some of which, […]
