Climate breakdown, mass extinction and inequality are largely
driven by a financial system that extracts wealth, concentrates
power, and requires endless growth.
This game introduces the players to ‘credit clearing’, a process
for cancelling out debts within trading networks and decreasing
their reliance on money from outside the community.
This requires some simple tech, but more importantly
collaboration, trust, and a diverse set of economic agents.
Through the game the players explore a Local Loop project
in the north west of England that illustrates how credit
clearing can build the foundations for the emergence of
a circular economy, financial resilience, and community wealth.
The companion file is available in English.
The physical game is available in English.
