🍁🍂 Hello, dear woodland creatures! 🍂🍁

On October 11th, we invite you for another digi LARP.

It is Parting Day in Mossley Wood, the day when friends on the cusp of adulthood picnic together and craft friendship bracelets that represent their goals as grown-up animals.

Today you’ll talk with your friends and craft as you work out whether to take up your father’s commission in the Animal Lightfoot Brigade, propose to your beloved, or re-do the cottage you’ve inherited, though it might break your aunt’s heart.

In this quiet, moody game about woodland creatures, you’ll craft bracelets, have deep life discussions, and most of all, embrace the warm love of your friends.

Submerge yourself in autumn wholesomeness, register via the form in the bio.

📆 Sunday, Oct 11th 2026, 16h-19h
📍 Online
👤 LARP enthusiasts, artists, youth workers, curious humans

Parting Days in Mossley Wood is part of the Long-distance LARPing project by Nerdlab and Sickhouse / The Overkill Festival

A look back to the Double Trouble game jam! We had four teams creating live-action role-playing games designed to create two communities long-distance. And in the best way possible - through play.

The jam was organized together with Sickhouse / The Overkill Festival and mentored by Jana Romanova

All the games designed during the jam are available on our itch page:

Doe mee aan de workshop Meshcore 📻! Meshwatte? Ja, vreemde naam, maar MeshCore is eigenlijk super simpel.

Stel de zombie apocalypse ontstaat of een oorlog en er is geen gsm netwerk of internet meer… Geen paniek via een MeshCore-netwerk kan je gelukkig met al je geliefden communiceren over een gedecentraliseerd netwerk. Geen instantie die het controleert, alles verloopt over verschillende punten tot bij jou! Een meshnetwerk dus…

Het is heet 🌡️ en we gaan het nog wat warmer maken door samen over data en kaarten te nerden 🤓. En hoe jij zelf een eigen kaart kan maken, deel worden van de open street maps community.

Kom mee met ons op wandel, zet zelf belangrijke plaatsen in de buurt op de kaart en leer over open street maps data

Last Friday, we came together at Nerdlab for a BBQ🔥 filled with good food, fun activities and great vibes.
