Stinn brakke når brettspillet Gielas hadde verdenspremiere på Márkomeannu. Spillet har tatt steget fra Sigbjørn Skådens bok "Planterhaug" til virkelighetens verden!

I felt strongly about this and wrote a white paper for Indigenous game designers in Canada to explore further. I hope it's helpful and welcome any feedback! #IndigenousGames #IndigenousKnowledge https://breadthofpopsanity.blogspot.com/2024/09/coyote-and-crow-in-canada.html

On #IndigenousPeoplesDay two #Indigenous #game releases announced:

1 Award winning #Sámi PC game "Skábma" launched on among others #Playstation, #XBox and #Switch / #NintendoSwitch!

2 New chapter released for Sámi mobile #appgame "Raanaa" (pictured).

Both games are based on Sámi #mythology and folklore, and have young #noaidi ("shaman") protagonists.

DUJGU!

The rules for the Sámi #tafl game Tablut were written down by Carl #Linnaeus in 1732, who learned to play it on a board embroidered on reindeer hide with pieces made in traditional Sámi #boardgame #duodji style.

Among the Lule #Sámi words he wrote down, "tuichu" (dujgu) is somewhat mysterious as its literal meaning is uncertain. "Dujgu" was said when a player positioned their King so that it had not just one but two open paths to escape the board, winning.
