Border Riding

This is a game about boundaries, how we mark them and who we include or exclude from them. While inspired by the Common Ridings festivals in the Scottish Borders, this game can be about any community, and take place at any time, in any setting.

This is a GM-less map drawing game. You'll collaboratively draw maps on blank piecesof paper for a community that you will invent with your friends, recording its landmarks, its boundary, who the community thinks of as "Us", and which neighbours the community thinks of as "Them".

You'll need 3 or more players, pens, a d6, and a lot of paper. Each game takes 1 to 2 hours to complete.

Border Riding is printed on a large foldout sheet, measuring 890 mm x 1000 mm. It will fold down into a 134 mm x 227 mm wedge, easily stuffed into a backpack for games night.
