Reunification: A Letter-Writing Game about Reconciliation (2019)

Your country has been deeply embedded in a tumultuous civil war for many years. Homes have been destroyed, lives torn apart, and families separated—including yours. Your family was divided at the beginning of the war, destroying any possible contact over the subsequent years. Finally, the opposing sides within your country have begun talks, and reconciliation is happening. Over the coming months, you are encouraged by the government to write letters to your family. In a year, the walls will be torn down, and citizens will begin the arduous process of coming together, finally giving you the opportunity to reunite with your long-lost family.

But do you even know them anymore?

Reunification is a game for 3-5 players where each player takes on the role of one member of a family that has been split apart due to a civil war. Throughout the game, you will ask questions of the other family members in order to get to know them and build up familiarity, empathy, and compassion with each other. It is a game of questioning and writing—in hopes of gaining insight and perspective, understanding and trust.

Through their answers to questions, players are creating and telling a story about the world they have created and the family they belong to.
