We’ll also be engaging in some creative improv exercises to teach you strategies for coming up with ideas on the fly.

Thursday TTRPG Series:
To participate: Show up! Order food/drink. Our Game Specialist will take care of the rest.
Featuring:
Indie TTRPG Takeover: The Quiet Year
Build community after civilization’s collapse in this innovative map-making game by designer Avery Adler. You have one quiet year to reflect, rebuild, and prepare for the return of the enigmatic and destructive Frost Shepherds that inevitably end the game. Face the tension of every decision and action set against dwindling time, limited resources, and mounting danger.
Enjoy a meaningful journey through the narrative players build together, grapple with tough choices and complex themes, and bond over a poetic shared experience as you view the final map you’ve made together.
Core Mechanics: Diceless gameplay focuses on narrative and creating the map. A special deck of 52 cards correspond to each week of the year and each card brings bad news, showers the community with good omens, levels a new disaster, or introduces other surprising challenges.
