Join Side Quest Books & Games for a session of “Sign”, a sign language and linguistics game, inspired by the true origins of Nicaraguan Sign Language! This game is based on the history of Nicaraguan Sign Language.
Nicaragua in the 1970s had no official form of sign language. In 1977, something happened. Fifty deaf children from across the country were brought together to a school in Managua. Without a shared language to express themselves, the children did something remarkable—they created one.
In Sign, we follow a story inspired by that journey.
Note: this game is played in silence.
