Non-verbal planning

Whiteboard

Draw and write to share plans, maps and codes without saying a word.

The whiteboard is the group's shared brain. Draw a map, write down a code, or sketch a sequence — anything too complex to shout across a valley becomes clear when it's drawn. It shines on multi-step puzzles with lots of moving parts.

How to use the Whiteboard

  • Use it to record codes and symbols you discover for later puzzles.
  • Sketch the world layout so everyone shares the same mental map.
  • Faster than describing complex plans out loud, especially in big groups.
Remember: in Big Walk the challenge is being understood. Match your tool to the distance and situation, and agree on what each signal means before you need it. See the proximity voice chat guide for the full picture.
