Evillains: Wicked and Locked

Evillains is short chamber larp from a world of comic super-heroes and super-villains. It’s an unserious game about super-villains getting locked in a smart prison by accident. To get themselves free, they must learn to cooperate and solve several funny riddles and puzzles.

Beside the fun from playing exaggerated villain roles there is of course an unusual and interesting riddle-solving. Forget all classical games from camps and boy-scout trips, mathematical equations or complicated computer ciphers. Everything in this game is based on a common sense and playful combinations, e.g. work with UV lights, mixing of colorful solutions or tuning on secret radio stations. Evillains are an ideal game to entertain yourself while having a rest from serious games.

What will it look like

At the beginning, all players will divide the roles of twelve super-villains. After that a 40 minutes long dramatic workshop will take place to prepare the players for super-villain experience. Beside that, a costume and role-specific props will be handed to players to be used in game.

The game itself will take about 90 minutes.

There will be roughly 30 minutes of debriefing after the game about the game’s themes and possible explanation of unsolved puzzles.

Roundaround

Roundaround is a humorous game that takes you through the Brno city center and shows you all the interesting places from a different angle when searching for a lost Birk’s wheel. On twelve places of interest you will uncover a simple plot, enjoy unconventional quests and entertain yourself and passers-by.

Don’t be a couch potato and discover the legends about Brno when walking through the city itself. Roundaround is suitable for groups of adults as well as families with children.

Roundaround offers a different view at the traditional legends about Brno. Along with your friends or family, you will help Birk the Blacksmith to find his lost wheel. Characters from the legends will come alive around you to help you with your search.

What will it look like

The game lasts for about three hours. During the play, your group will visit various places of interest while being led by a historical map. You will carry out unconventional quests and gather more hints and items that will come handy during the search.

The quests aren’t particularly a big challenge for your cardio (no 100m dashes) or brain (no Da-Vinci-Code-like brainteasers). They are humorous tasks that require you above all to be playful. All you need is a notebook, a pen and a bottle (or two) of a tasty drink (we recommend quality Moravian wine, a pitcher of tapped beer or some juice, in case you were born in the recent years).

The goal isn’t to beat the game in the fastest time ever or overcome unbelievably difficult challenges, but to enjoy yourself and entertain people around you.

Mixer

We took the best out of game shows and moved it into the new millennium. An unforgettable mixture of action, knowledge and wisdom is waiting for you. There will be thrill, there will be screaming, there will be real emotions (hopefully, there will be no blood). Get your vocal chords ready for a show that can beat any other show: Mixer!

Mixer is a cross-over between a game show as you know it from TV and other social action games. Everything is combined into an event that gets your blood going. The competitors are not going to be the only ones having a blast – the audience will participate as well.

There will be everything you can imagine when you think of a game show. Dramatic music, spotlights, on-screen game info, spectators going crazy, time-attack buttons and of course a pair of irresistible charismatic emcees.

Mixer can change any usual party into an unusual entertaining event.

What will it look like

Mixer can be introduced either as a part of a larger party or as a stand-alone event – the only important thing is enough people in the audience. Out of the audience we will choose 9 players who will then strike an unforgiving battle in front of the eyes of the audience.

The question areas are chosen by the players themselves. According to the nature of the event (corporate party, conference, birthday party, wedding, etc.) we can prepare a special question area just for you.

The rest of the audience does not come short. Apart from cheering and screaming their lungs out during the game, they can also participate during the action intermezzos.
