Take the Shot

Feel like instantly turn any social gathering into a stealthy cat-and-mouse action mission? Wonder what it feels like to live with a price on your head? Want to be shown pictures of yourself where you're frantically looking over your shoulder — oblivious to how close your hunter truly is?

Then print this game out, make a button of it, pin it somewhere strangers can clearly see, and take a deep breath. You're about to have a lot of eyes on you... or not? Maybe everything is just fine. Maybe nobody notices. Maybe you're no being studied and tracked by anyone waiting for the perfect opportunity. Maybe.

Made for the 58mm RPG Jam, Take the Shot is a simple yet stressful LARP about being the assigned target of covert agents. Will you know who's seeking to capture you, or will their identities be unknown? Are you being pursued alone, or are there others like you? Do all your peers share the same fate, or must every victim fend for themself? Is finishing this job the end of the line, or might it lead to something more? All up to you.

Note: This experimental game invites strangers to photograph you. Understand the risks, have safety measures in place, know your limits, and don't be afraid to stop playing at any time. You are always in control of your own consent; if you want to stop playing, just cover or remove the game object.
