Taking Tiger Mountain by Oblique Strategy is a cooperative game where players will navigate a modular maze of puzzles inspired by The Codex Seraphinianus by Luigi Serafini. There are no printed rules. "Conduct" is informed by a curated set of prompts taken from Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt’s Oblique Strategy cards. For instance, a card may read “What are the sections sections of? Imagine a caterpillar moving.”
A sheet labeled “companion” is included, which outlines setup and potential game ending conditions. A book about a nonexistent language inspires a game without rules. What could be more Eno than a metaphor about collaboration and what we overcome to create art?
