FREE AND EASY is a non-transparent, full-immersion Nordic larp for 10 players wherein the players depict contestants on a reality show designed to appeal to stereotypical suburban adults (the demographic is 25-45 years old, married with children, cis, heterosexual, and monogamous). The producers believe this target audience watches fetish porn but would never admit to it (much less experiment) and believe single people to all be hypersexual, pansexual party animals. The goal is to give them as raunchy a show as possible and the producers (via the two hosts, played by organizers) will ramp up this drama ostensibly to “draw out” the couple for elimination.

The larp is about how being in the spotlight pressures reality show contestants to behave differently than they normally would, how limits soften or dissolve when money is at stake, and how a cis-het monogamous vanilla character might behave when publicly encouraged to be as over-the-top as possible in a hedonistic environment.
 

The larp commences with players recording brief interviews in character which will be played back throughout the duration of the larp. Aside from these recordings, which will be deleted after the larp, there will be no cameras or recording devices in use, although we will pretend that there are cameras everywhere except in the green room. Contestants will be introduced one by one by the hosts and then gameplay will run through several cycles of challenge – prize – elimination – free play, concluding on Saturday around midnight. Winners will be announced Sunday morning after a final activity before the larp concludes. Contestants eliminated after the challenges continue to participate in the challenges but are otherwise limited to the green room to potentially separate the couple or ramp up any burgeoning romances. During free play and when in the green room, contestants are free to do whatever they wish from scheming and gossiping to starting an orgy. The hosts will always try to ramp up any sexual drama.
