There is also Starling Games with several new releases including the first Everdell expansion, Pearlbrook, a reprint of the Everdell Collector's Edition, and the new sci-fi horror game Anomaly. Under our gateway games imprint Sparkworks, we'll have Penny Lane and Blind Spot. Under our kids and family imprint Flying Meeple, we'll have Roll & Seek and Dig Dog Dig. We also hope to have the PolyHero Rogue Dice.

Well, Larping is for you. whether casting spells or slaying dragons you will be entangled into a different world. Live Action Role-playing games (LARPs) take everything you love about your favorite RPG and bring it to life through immersive, live-action play. LARPers physically portray their characters by moving around in real space, and often enhance their role-playing with costumes and props.
LARPs can be small and personal, but are often sprawling experiences created by dozens of players weaving together interconnected story lines in a shared world. Many of these unique experiences can only be found at this convention, so check out these events to join in the immersive world of Larping.

When four mighty Houses struggle for supremacy in the underground enclave, oblivious to a rising power that threatens to end their reign forever, what side will you find yourself on?
