“Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.”

John D. Rockefeller

“The game is out there, and it's either play or get played”

Omar Little, The Wire

In The West, you will have the chance to test your moral compass, uncover secrets and explore the complex relationship between profit and the environment. Technology, innovation, long-term outlook, and the power of ideas will forge a new future.
This is a story of unsung heroes in a white collar.

The challenge of the century is underway and the goals are clear: fighting climate change while achieving prosperity and ecological stability. Progress and science are the only tools that will get the job done, but without the market to stimulate innovations this battle will be lost before it even begins.
Money moves the world, and money is essential when it comes to improving the environment.

In The West, the characters will be the promoters of this extraordinary progress. They are engineers, scientists, and businessmen who will need to find a way to combine their personal agenda, their companies' business strategies, and the progress their extraordinary inventions could bring to the future of Humanity.

In a business meeting, everything is planned, predictable, and reassuring.

The protagonists of the West, however, will find themselves forced to face a series of totally unexpected crises that will test their nerves, skills, and beliefs.

There will be an opportunity to interact with computers, video calls, and phones, but also with transmitters, blank guns, surveillance devices, and more...

EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!

Inspirations

We desperately searched for works of fiction that depicted capitalism in a positive light, and since our search was fruitless we decided to write this larp.
However, there are movies and tv shows that have influenced the design and writing in various ways, such as The Devil's Advocate, The Social Network, The Departed, Promised Neverland, Don't Look Up, Billions, Suits, Thank You for Smoking, The Night Manager.

“O wild West Wind – tameless, and swift, and proud.
Be thou, Spirit fierce, My spirit!”
