Learn sign language as you cast spells, solve puzzles and battle monsters!
INSPIRISLES features a unique system we have called Shaping. It allows you to engage with Deaf culture and learn sign language (ASL and BSL included). It also informs the dice mechanic at the heart of the game, where you wield the elements to fight Disbelief.
A rules-light roleplaying experience!
For the most fun, we recommend running the game with five players. One of you volunteers to be the Grail Guide, whilst the others form a party of Pendragons. It’s the Guide’s role to describe the islands, plan adventures and embody the many characters and creatures the Pendragons will meet. The role is best suited for an adult or confident storyteller.
Video tutorials!
INSPIRISLES comes with video tutorials lovingly produced and performed by my Deaf colleagues Rajnie Kaur and Katy White. Find the link to these on page 39 of the game. As well as our video tutorials, all sign language and Deaf awareness elements have been consulted on by professionals.
