AKAPELA

AKAPELA is an interactive video game where the voice becomes the main controller. Two players or teams face each other, standing in front of LED screens and using cone-shaped amplifiers to scream, sing, or modulate their voices.

Each vocal sound generates colored arrows on screen. The pitch of the voice determines the color, while the duration and strength of the sound trigger the launch — like drawing and releasing a vocal bow. The goal is to destroy the opponent’s fortress while defending your own. To block incoming attacks, players must match the color of the arrows with their voice.

Bonus items randomly appear to spice up the game and encourage wild vocal improvisation. AKAPELA turns screams into strategy, voice into a joystick, and the game arena into a true sonic battlefield.
