A list of games will appear here over the next few months, and ticket holders will be able to sign up to those games. Games will typically fit into either a 2-hour slot, or a 3-hour slot. The programme page will list the timing of those slots.
Right now you can see a list of Story Guides who will be running those games.
If you are considering running a game, please fill in this form - thank-you.
List of Games
- Freeform: A Quiet Night In run by Kirstie and Andrew Sceats - the live-action highlight of the weekend. Suitable for all players, and an ideal ice-breaker for getting to know everyone at the convention.
- Houses of Hermes: The Boardgame run by CJ - an experimental card game
- The Italian Job run by CJ - for grogs (non-magical characters) trying to obtain fabled scrolls, run in the style and pace of a heist movie.
- Shadows of the Box run by Anna Jones - a mysterious box needs to be taken for repair, and the elder Magi were very insistent that a strong party should go.
- The Silence of the Korrigans run by Andrew Oakley - suitable for all levels, especially beginners, set in Brittany, France. Bring your own character or use a template character provided.
- So Long at the Fair run by Andrew Sceats - unconfirmed.
- The Tragedy of Young Werther run by CJ - a small, short freeform focussed on developing a Nordic-style saga
- Unquiet Grave II run by Leif Olav Josang - a sequel to last year's game The Uniquet Grave.
