Stranger

STRANGER is a lifesize board game about what happens when you see an unknown face. Is it possible to find out what happens in your mind? Is it possible to share this with others?

 

STRANGER is a playful platform that explores the grey area between intuition, peoples’ knowledge, judgment, prejudices and stereotyping. Averse to political correctness, the game searches for what is true for us.

STRANGER premiered in 2012 and is still played by diverse groups of people. Every context or culture will give it its unique form.

STRANGER is available in English, French and Dutch. Every other language can be discussed.
