Parley: the game of language
Discover the notion of linguistic space-time through the Rimboxing Club game

‘Parley’ is the game invented by Rimboxing Club. On a board with squares, you move your pieces to form a sentence before your opponent does.
As a product of the Rimboxing Club ecosystem, it works independently and can be played for the sheer pleasure of strategy and creativity.
But it's also a game that illustrates our P-bar hypothesis, about the existence of an interface between physical and linguistic space-time. The poster presented here is devoted to this approach. By comparing the rules of chess and Parley, we can see that they lie on opposite sides of the interface we call P-bar.
