Abstract
A role-play module that monitors a social networking platform receives an indication of a game event from a first player located in a physical environment where a role-play game is conducted. The first player has a first role in the role-play game. Further, the role-play module provides the indication to the social networking platform such that the social networking platform provides the indication to a second player remotely situated from the physical environment. The second player has a second role in the role-play game. In addition, the role-play module asynchronously receives, from the second player, an instruction for an action to be performed by the first player in the role-play game. The role-play module also provides the instruction to the social networking platform such that the social networking platform provides the instruction to the first player.
