Rosetta is an experiment in the power and creativity of the players and how they communicate. It is cooperative, and chock full of elements designed to try and help in what seems like an impossible task: Translating a mysterious glyph from a dead civilization. One player sets up the puzzle and tries to guide players with new and invented symbols, while the rest debate and understand them, crafting theories of meaning that drive towards success.

This is an experience that relies on our desire to be understood, and while it may not be for everyone, it has a variety of openness and challenge you won't find anywhere else.
