Axolotl With A Gun at One Shot Saturday Sept 26 (Tabletop RPGs)

Event full? Please join the wait-list - we almost always end up with space.

Axolotl With A Gun
It's the day of the big axolotl neighborhood party. You've made worm sushi for the potluck, helped hang up algae bunting, but as the festivities are about to start, what's that? An enormous, metallic horror falls into your beautiful lake, destroying the party set up and injuring villagers. Time to get out the beautiful gun you got for your birthday, as is the axolotl tradition. Nothing will keep you away from that sushi.

Frontier Scum: Escape the Organ Rail
You are prisoners aboard the Organ Rail, a prison train clad in black iron, spewing blood-red smoke as it rattles across the tracks of the Big Nothing. Rumors say its belly-vault contains the confiscated swag of a thousand robberies gone wrong. The next stop is Fort Gullet, where you’ll be hanged for your crimes, so you better get a wiggle on! To get out alive, you’ll need enough supplies to get you across the sweltering sands to the swamp-oasis of Sickwater; no straight-shootin’ lawfolk would ever set foot in that veritable rat’s nest of thieves and outlaws. Yup, that’s your only chance. Of course, it couldn’t hurt to have a look in that vault while you’re here ... could it?

20,000 Leagues Above the Sea
Your party are aboard the Wayward Wind, a top-notch leisure airship for Sharn's upper crust. After a night of rocky turbulence, you begin to notice that something is not quite right with the vessel. The ring of fire that propels the ship has turned chalky and ashen, the lights flicker, you hear steps when no-one is around, and your party's teleporting dog seems to bark fiercly at nothing more than a passing draft When rumors of the ship captain's accidental death spread, your party are stuck with a cruel realization: Unless someone can figure out what is going on, no one is going home.

Dungeon World: Rites of Lunar Passage
You are this year's voyagers. For the tribe of the moon, each equinox those who have come of age are sent out to make discovery and to bring back new knowledge, tribute, or wealth to the tribe. Nomads of the rift valleys, each year is a new challenge. What will the Moon's glow reveal to you?

WHAT IS ONE-SHOT SATURDAY?

It's a weekly meet-up in Sheung Wan/Central, focusing on indie games and single-session games (one-shots). 而家所有游戏係英文嘅但如果你要嚟玩中文游戏，我哋會無任歡迎。只要湊啱玩家就行！

You can drop in and play at any One-Shot Saturday – you do not need to have played in a previous session or commit to playing again. Whether you've played an RPG before or not, you're welcome to join us.

Please arrive on time as once the games begin it becomes difficult to properly introduce latecomers.

Join the conversation, make plans, suggest games to play, etc. —

WHAT IS A TABLETOP RPG?

It's a game in which you never know where the next stop will be, because it’s all down to the decisions you and your fellow players make. Usually one person is the Game Master (or "GM"). Everyone else will be players, taking the role of the characters in the game. The players get to say what their characters say, think, and do. The GM describes everything else in the world.

Then... we play to find out what happens. The game is a conversation: I say something, then you reply, maybe someone else chimes in. We talk about what's happening to the characters we imagine and the world around them. We also talk about the rules, which help us decide what happens next if the next step is in doubt. The rules differ from game to game: some use dice to shape the story, others use cards or something else. It's always a conversation, though.
