LARP stands for Live Action Role Play, a gathering in which participants dress as kings, wizards and other fantasy characters to create new worlds. And understanding this activity could help explain something else that is very much real: QAnon. Reed Berkowitz, director of Curiouser LLC, a media, fiction and games research group, joins host Krys Boyd to talk about how QAnon could be thought of as “a game that plays people.” His article from Medium is called “A Game Designer’s Analysis of QAnon.”
