Johannes Sich is author and illustrator of MicroMacro: Crime City, the award-winning cooperative detective game series since 2021 (Spiel des Jahres 2021, As d’Or – Jeu de l’Année 2021). MicroMacro transforms a sprawling, hand-drawn city into an intricate narrative system. The characters function as anchor points within a dense visual field while players follow their movements across a large-scale, ‘busy picture’ city map, reconstruct timelines and piece together interconnected crimes. Through these figures, fragmented scenes resolve into coherent narratives. Guided by minimal rules and card-based prompts, the experience unfolds through observation, deduction, and collaboration.
