SUMMARY:Sign
DESCRIPTION:A live-action game based on the true story of Nicaraguan Sign Language\, when deaf children in a country with no official sign language spontaneously created their own. \nPlayers embody students on their first day of school. Along the way\, they’ll make friends\, learn about themselves and build their own language together piece by piece. \nPlayers will select from pre-made characters. Gameplay is split between ‘classes’ and ‘recess’ with each session lasting around 10-15 minutes and will feature both the structured creation of a basic sign language and freeform interactions with other characters using that language. The game explores themes around what it means to communicate and to be understood. No RPG experience required. The game is very rules light. Total play time is around 2 hours. \nContent warnings and player safety:\nThe game doesn’t feature any mature or triggering themes. We will use an X card and safety techniques so that if anything does come up during the game that players aren’t comfortable with we can remove it. \nPlease note that the majority of the game is played in total silence. If spending ~1.5 hours in silence doesn’t sound fun or interesting this may not be the game for you! \nThe game makes use of physical contact as a means of communication (e.g. characters tapping each other to get one another’s attention\, or otherwise communicating using physical touch). If any players would be more comfortable not using any physical contact that is totally fine and we will discuss preferences before playing. \nThe game involves players drawing on their hands in pen. Washable ink pens will be provided. \nThis game is for players 18+ only \n[5 spaces available] \n

SUMMARY:Mini-MegaGame: Den of Wolves - New Eden
DESCRIPTION:In this game you will play a member of a space fleet\, survivors of a massive attack from the nation of Wolf – decimating and subjugating the other settled worlds. Together you will be trying to survive in space\, flee further Wolf attacks and find a new home for your people – a New Eden. \nThe game runs for 8 to 18 players over 3 to 4 hours\, split into 8 turns. The game plays in real time\, so managing your time and delegating tasks is an important part of the game. \nEach player will be assigned a role of one of the survivor fleet space ships and must work together to succeed. Each ship represents a team of players and each come from a different nation or colony from before the attack. \nBeware\, however\, Wolf planted agents throughout the colonies before the attack and it’s highly probable that some will be hiding amongst other players in the fleet. \nThe rulebook is here and it’s advised players give it a read before they arrive. \n  \nHear more about this event on our Strange Games Festival Radio YouTube Podcast \n  \n[18 spaces available] \nPlayers should be 18+

SUMMARY:Mansions of Madness
DESCRIPTION:That the influence of the old house was unwholesome\, he could not deny; but traces of his early morbid interest still held him there. He argued that the fever alone was responsible for his nightly phantasies\, and that when the touch abated he would be free from the monstrous visions. Those visions\, however\, were of abhorrent vividness and convincingness\, and whenever he awaked he retained a vague sense of having undergone much more than he remembered. –H.P. Lovecraft\, The Dreams in the Witch House \nFight for your life in Mansions of Madness Second Edition\, the app-assisted horror game inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. From the makers of Eldritch Horror\, this fully cooperative game takes you and up to four other players on a harrowing adventure through the dark and desolate halls and alleyways of Arkham. \n[5 spaces available] \n14+ years old due to the nature of the puzzles and themes.

SUMMARY:S.P.I.E.S. (Inspired by Speakeasy)
DESCRIPTION:S.P.I.E.S.\nInspired by Speakeasy \nYou find yourself at the International Espionage Society’s yearly convention for the world’s greatest Spies. Time is short\, so you need to mingle and get as much Intel from them as possible. Don’t worry\, you’re not alone on this mission\, you just don’t know who else the agency sent in…Thankfully\, due to budget cuts\, you’ll likely have the same Pseudonym. \nThe Secret Pseudonyms of the International Espionage Society is a Mega Social Deduction game for 60 Players.\nThe main theme surrounding this game is to strike up conversations with fellow Spies\, dropping hints to your Pseudonym to work out if you’re in the same Agency. You’ll then work with your Agency to use your Roles and Gadgets to Steal and Gain Intel (Points) from the opposition.\nAt the end the Agency with the most Intel and Information about the opposing players win…Oh but just be careful of any Moles… \nThis event is capped at 60 players\, if you’re not signed up and want to play you may queue at the door. 10 mins after the event has started\, anyone who hasn’t shown up will lose their spot and anyone at the door will get a spot. \nDoors will close as soon as rules explanation starts\, even if there are still spots you will not be allowed in. \nHaving a phone is helpful but not essential.\nYou may play in multiple games throughout the weekend. \n[60 spaces available] \nCome join the discord to learn more and find out about when/where games are being run:\nhttps://discord.com/invite/zwDJxGWYe5 \n \n

SUMMARY:FILTHY PEASANTS! - D&D 5e - A 'Funnel' game
DESCRIPTION:The road into Steyside crosses a bridge over a slow-moving river that’s more like a thick\, muddy ditch than an actual waterway. A narrow crack in the riverbank opens into caves that local children explore from time to time. Recently\, travelers have complained of a foul smell wafting up from the opening and strange tracks in the mud. Now a merchant caravan has vanished\, and one word sits heavy on the lips of the townsfolk—trolls. The villagers drew lots\, and your motley crew has been selected to head into the caves and save anybody they can. It’s time to do what all good villagers do in a crisis—grab pitchforks\, form a mob\, and put the monsters to the blade. \nIn a funnel game\, players will each control 3 or 4 Level Zero characters. During the course of the adventure some of the characters WILL die. Those that survive will no doubt go on to become legendary heroes – but this is the bit before that 🙂 \nWe will spend a little time generating the mob of filthy peasants before sending them off on their first adventure. Dice\, Tokens\, a map and all character sheets will be provided. \nPG13 \n[5 spaces available] \nRPG Glade Table Number: 5 \n  \nHear more about this event on our Strange Games Festival Radio YouTube Podcast

SUMMARY:Deep Woods Adventure - Beginner Games
DESCRIPTION:A group of travellers\, lost in the forest\, search for clues to find a way to safety… Deep Woods Adventure is a Strange Games special – a home-brewed\, ‘lifesize’ version of the push-your-luck game ‘Deep Sea Adventure’\, played in the woods. \nWant to play? The game will be set up and available all weekend\, including instructions. Find it on the footpath that is near the old lake\, at the far end of Willows 4 past the campfire (look for a line with brightly-coloured rags attached). \nThree ‘beginners’ games will also be run at the start of the Festival:\n6pm Friday – please arrive at the Activity Centre by 5.55pm\n10am Saturday – please arrive at the Activity Ccentre by 9.55am\n11am Saturday – please arrive at the Activity Centre by 10.55am \nPlease turn up promptly as we will leave the Activity Centre at the advertised time or before if we have enough players \nCome along to the ‘new friends’ meeting point in the Activity Centre just before this time if you’d like to play – don’t be late! We need 3-6 players for the game to run.\nUnfortunately\, we won’t be able to take more than this\, but there should be others there to play something else if not! \n  \nSuitable for: 3-7 players (including a ‘GM’)\, 45-60 mins. Even better played in the dusk/dark (8pm is a good start time if so)\, but do bring torches as the path is unlit and uneven in places. \nAccessibility: The game involves walking on an unlit woodland footpath\, which is across one of the camping fields. It can be a little uneven in places and may be unsuitable for wheelchair users\, depending on your mobility. The game also needs the majority of players to tell colours apart and to tie/untie loose knots\, however the GM or a volunteer can support with this without impacting the running of the game. \nChildren: Older children used to playing boardgames can play this game\, if their adult is also playing. There are also some suggested variations to the rules that you might find helpful if you want to play a ‘family game’ with children. \n  \n[6 spaces available]

SUMMARY:S.P.I.E.S. (Inspired by Speakeasy)
DESCRIPTION:S.P.I.E.S.\nInspired by Speakeasy \nYou find yourself at the International Espionage Society’s yearly convention for the world’s greatest Spies. Time is short\, so you need to mingle and get as much Intel from them as possible. Don’t worry\, you’re not alone on this mission\, you just don’t know who else the agency sent in…Thankfully\, due to budget cuts\, you’ll likely have the same Pseudonym. \nThe Secret Pseudonyms of the International Espionage Society is a Mega Social Deduction game for 60 Players.\nThe main theme surrounding this game is to strike up conversations with fellow Spies\, dropping hints to your Pseudonym to work out if you’re in the same Agency. You’ll then work with your Agency to use your Roles and Gadgets to Steal and Gain Intel (Points) from the opposition.\nAt the end the Agency with the most Intel and Information about the opposing players win…Oh but just be careful of any Moles… \nThis event is capped at 60 players\, if you’re not signed up and want to play you may queue at the door. 10 mins after the event has started\, anyone who hasn’t shown up will lose their spot and anyone at the door will get a spot. \nDoors will close as soon as rules explanation starts\, even if there are still spots you will not be allowed in. \nHaving a phone is helpful but not essential.\nYou may play in multiple games throughout the weekend. \n[60 spaces available] \nCome join the discord to learn more and find out about when/where games are being run:\nhttps://discord.com/invite/zwDJxGWYe5 \n \n
