Description:
Making your business a safe space is not only good for your community, it's also good for business. Patrons who feel comfortable being themselves in your store, and recognize that diversity is a priority for YOU, are more likely to return in the future and support your business. But actions speak louder than words, so it is important that you show others in the space how they are welcomed and not just tell them. Come learn a few tips for making your store a safe space for everyone! Tabletop Gaymers Inc. is a nonprofit organization whose mission is promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion by championing the visibility and recognition of the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual, and others) community through tabletop gaming.
Spring Break is finally here! You've been planning a trip with some friends away from any and all responsibility. But unbeknownst to you something sinister lurks in the woods...
Description:
This year of college has been kicking your collective butts, but you've had your sights set on your weekend away in a cabin over Spring Break. Your plans have been in the works for months and you're not about to let anything get in your way. It's just you, your friends, a cabin in the woods, and maybe a few drinks. Nothing can get in your way. At least, that's what you expect. But unbeknownst to you, there's something sinister lurking around your vacation destination. Hopefully it leaves you to enjoy your break in peace. A cooperative, tragic horror game. You'll work together to tell a story built around hope. But even as your characters fight to survive, you must guide them even as you're saddled with the knowledge that their death is assured.
A retro-sci-fi themed, map-building, dice-rolling, card game and space adventure.
Description:
A board game and card game in one. Map building, dice rolling, take that, immersive card game where you play a space cadet facing challenges as you race other players to complete your mission file card. Large deck and custom board building means a different game every time you play. Players use a hand of six hex-shaped cards to build a map of space and planets, and play events that affect the game. As the map is built, players roll and move their spaceships around the galaxy, collecting data which is then used to upload hex cards to their "mission files." The first player to complete his/her Mission File wins the game.

Pulled from all throughout history, a group of strangers wake up in a futuristic facility; unfortunately for them, something's gone wrong and security seems to insist on hunting them down.
Description:
Set in a mysterious, futuristic facility, this campaign focuses on a group of unwitting time-travelers, taken from their own times without warning and dropped in the middle of a much bigger mystery. But before they can return home, they'll have to hunt down and stop the creatures that have escaped the facility and are threatening to destroy all of history. The setting and NPCs from this session will be continued in other sessions on Saturday and Sunday, forming a mini-campaign over the course of Gen Con. These sessions will still be treated as one-shots, and you do not need to attend more than a single session (Though you are more than welcome to if you would like!)
