Gaming Club II Play Together Edition: Language based Swiss puzzle game »Letters«

27. October 2022

For our second Gaming Club, we decided to have a special »Play Together« edition. We invited the members on Discord to join us streaming and playing along through the Swiss game „Letters“. This game, published early 2022, was successfully funded on Kickstarter and developed by the Zurich Studio 5am Games. It has received very positive reviews for its innovative gameplay, where the player literally has to »find the right words« to help the young Sarah write letters to her pen-pal friend. It is a puzzle game about friendship, growing up and finding your place in life. We discussed if a puzzle games based on language like »Letters« can be used as a template for gamified research approaches.
