Poetry is found in the most unusual of places from stone carved tablets to the back of cereal boxes.  This Poetry Month, let's look for poems that move, delight, resonate and witness life within games! Make a playable poem/zine or a poetic game/interactive within the timeframe of National / Global Poetry Month - April 1, 2022 to April 30, 2022. 


Rules:

  1. Text-based games/experiences are encouraged, though not mandatory. Define a "poem" as you like.
  2. Games may be digital or analog. Analog games are encouraged to include printables etc for access.
  3. You can submit one or as many works as you like. 
  4. You are encouraged to use #PoemsinGames2022 and #PlayablePoems to share work on social media.
  5. No plagiarizing. Original works only. Be generous with credits and bibliographies where they are due.
  6. Include content warnings where needed. 
  7. Please include a text only file for accessibility and printability.
  8. No hate speech or bigotry. Read https://berlincodeofconduct.org.
  9. Other hashtags: #NaPoWriMo #GloPoWriMo #NationalPoetryMonth
