TempJury Series

TJ is the first LIRP game I invented. the full name of LIRP is live improvising role-playing game, which is a new game category I changed based on LARP. I really love playing LARP because I can feel the experience of different characters in LARP games. However, I observed that LARP has disadvantages such as large amount of text to read, long silence, low player involvement and low experience, so I designed LIRP, in which any theme and script can be adapted into a script for a better game experience. The theme of TJ was chosen because it was inspired by the movie "Twelve Angry Men", a movie about the mechanics of the jury.

The mechanics of a jury is a group of people sitting around a room as an inquisitorial team, discussing the case. They are to convict a suspect or determine something in the course of executing justice. The discussion ends only when everyone agrees. Among these people there may be people who are indirectly related to the suspect or the incident.

LIRP is a new game category I invented based on the improvement of LARP. one game style of LARP, murder mystery, is popular all over the world. And in China, LARP games are called scripted killings, the most popular way to meet offline for young people in cities today. LARP games have some significant flaws, LIRP improves on them and enhances the sense of play for players.

What is the difference beetween LARP and LIRP?

LARP

LARP is Live Action Role Playing, which generally has many scenarios throughout the game where players take on different roles. The disadvantage of LARP is the large amount of text to read, the long silence time, and the poor game experience for players with few scenes.

LIRP

LIRP is a live improvised role-playing game that focuses more on improvisation than LARP. There are many scripts throughout the game. In each act of the game, players need to improvise and recreate scenes based on the content of the script. The performance scripts provide little and fragmented information, so the performers can guide others to interpret the content differently according to their own understanding. In this way, LIRP circumvents the flaws of a large number of LARP games. Players need to read less, and everyone performs and appreciates the content of others' performances for a better game experience.
