Visiting scholar Sabuk, leading expert on the sociology of colonial-era settler formations, is running a simulation in Wînipêk. Saturday, July 25, 1pm, downtown.
Spoil me
It’s an interactive puzzle-solving adventure,
a game akin to a scavenger hunt.
Teams will use a custom app that sends them to find things around the area to “capture” territory. The site is in character and therefore cryptic but use the form
below if you have questions.
The simulation will require the use of antiquated handheld Colonial Big Tech technology, specifically the Android or iOS platforms. Android needs to between version 7 to 18, inclusive, and iOS 13 to 28.
If you register early you can gain access to a beta test to make sure you have something compatible.
We will set up a compatibility mesh so these obsolete devices can communicate over the international network, but at least one team member will need a data plan.
To approximate fidelity to the simulated era, we’ll be requesting currency, to be directed to worthy groups who will be announced, but no currency is required.
While registration is not required, doing so will help us plan and address technical problems in advance.
Registering also helps you arrange your team in advance, if you wish to participate with others.
Do you have accessibility needs we should know about? Please tell us when you register and we will work with you to ensure you can participate. Sabuk’s institutional accessibility tags are preconfigured but let us know if anything is missing.
This is not the registration form, that’s here.
