Sign: A Game About Being Understood

This game is based on the history of Nicaraguan Sign Language. Nicaragua in the 1970s had no form of sign language. In 1977, something happened. Fifty deaf children from across the country were brought together to an experimental school in Managua. Without a shared language to express themselves, the children did the only thing they could - they created one. In Sign, we follow a story inspired by that journey.

All proceeds from the physical version go to support sign language education in Nicaragua, currently The Nicaraguan Sign Language Projects (NSLP). This has yielded more than $15,000 in donation to date. We also thank the NSLP for their guidance and input on game design.
