Reclaim your city as a space for play and adventure

Are you ready to get out on the streets and re-imagine your cityscape? Use a bench as your headquarters, play with projections on the walls, plan maps out of chalk, jump over imaginary obstacles, defend a fountain, dance in front of changing traffic lights and hide a treasure under a bus stop!

In this Challenge we will learn how to use various analog and digital materials to make a "BIG" game that is played outside the boundaries of our tabletops, consoles and living rooms.

This Challenge is brought to you by the Athens Plaython team and is open to anyone who wants to join.

Don't spend too much time on this, just quickly scrible the first few words that come to your mind. You can use your favorite game as a starting point. Here is an example:

To complete this task share a few words about yourself along with your wordle in the discussions and if you are so inclined create a new wordle out of the words your peers have posted.
