THE IDEA

„Portal Project” was our first step on the field of adult education.

 

The twist of the Project was to explore the hidden layers of education, learning and personal development in larp games which do not bear an „EDU” prefix in the title.

 

We were linked by the passion to LARP (live action role playing) and belonging to an informal Portal Larp Community, which has organized international Larp Conventions since 2012 in South-Eastern Europe.

 

After two years of meeting and working together, we feel much confident as larp designers to provide adult players with meaningful tools of life-long learning through playing fictional characters in narrative worlds.
