British Sign Language or as abbreviated to be commonly recognised as BSL, is an expressive yet engaging visual means of communication using gestures, facial expression and body language.

Inspiration into the BSL Fingerspelling Game was drawn from the concept of generating a positive influence through raising awareness into the communication barriers/seclusion of the deaf community in the experience of the pandemic and encourage the general public to reach out as a companion.
