Event details
What does colonialism have to do with board games?
How can we rethink history through board games?
In this Play for the Planet meet up, in collaboration with the Decolonising Education Collective, join game designer Anukriti Gupta for a single player trading and survival-based board game. In this play session, you will act as a zamindar, or landowner, to play the game, which will be followed by a discussion on decoloniality.
For more information about the game, visit Artstation.
