Nerak Crawlors

Annie He, Spring 2021

Checklist and Explanations

This Game uses my autobiographical character in our Quiet Year world.

I used n+7 and Travesty Generator for the Crawlst language that exists in the world.
For ex,
The humans are here. We must protect the boss. Everyone attack!
becomes:
The Evectatttanere manst hus act bost bothus hus. he atteryotat the att Everone.

For Googlism, I put in the name of one of the character and chose some lines to put in the story, for ex:


For Crowdsourcing, I used a bunch of my friend’s names and put them in the anagram generator for the names of the soldiers in the story. This is seen when they yell their names out.
For ex: Kenneth -> Hen Kent

For transcription, I just used it to help write some of the story. I said the lines out loud and used the text from there instead of typing it out. One ex of where I did this was for part of Hen’s profile page.

Oblique Strategies cards:

For each of these, I either used them to write the story itself, like when the group has to build a bridge, or used while writing, like when I changed some elements to be more specific and not vague.

For botnik predictive text, I used the Harry Potter dialog to write the spell of the Crawlst. I put in "uses" and got this: uses the dark magic through the murky marshes as though it understood you.
