Gaming Tournaments Berlin

Participate in Berlin's Exciting Gaming Competitions

Board Game / Gesellschaftsspiel (Level B1 is recommended)

Mon, Feb 16, 5:15 PM
From Let's speak German

Hi, this event will be playing a board game called: Ein Wochenende in Berlin. We will play the game together in GERMAN and I will moderate the game and support you when having difficulties unterstanding questions and correct your German throughout the game. The game is great fun as its about learning the German language and having questions related to Berlin as well :) The game is for up to 5 Players. So we will be a small group. Even if there is only one person registering the event will take place:) For this game its recommended to only join if you have Level B1 or a very advanced Level of A2 Please note: At the boardgames cafe we are meeting every person has to pay 2,5 per hour for the space they are offering. So calculate with an extra of 5 € as we are playing around 2h. But coffee and drinks are quite cheap at the place, so it kind of cancels each other out :)

Everybody's welcome, regardless of their background and knowledge level: if you've got any interest in games, we'll make sure you have a good time! This is NOT an event only aimed at developers. The event series is funded by [Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg](https://www.medienboard.de/) and sponsored by [Happy Broccoli](https://www.happybroccoligames.com/), the Berlin indie game studio behind the Duck Detective series.

Artistic Computer Game Photographs as Media of Care** Many artistic computer game photographs address the presence and absence of care. I would like to show in this talk that they themselves become describable as media of care. The notion of care offers a possibility to view the multitude of artistic in-game photographic works through the lens of one theme and thereby bring them into a coherent context. *Sebastian Möring is a professor of game design at Macromedia University and a media and culture scholar with a PhD in game studies focusing on game aesthetics and philosophy, in-game photography, and green game studies.* [sebastianmoering.com](https://sebastianmoering.com/) // [Macromedia University](https://www.macromedia-fachhochschule.de/de/menschen/sebastian-moering/) After the talk(s) there will be a section dedicated to short announcements from the community, get in touch to reserve a spot: info@berlingamescene.com — same goes if your company is hiring or wants to announce something and you'd like to get a sponsored slot! • • • • • **THE PLAY PART (SHOWCASE)** These are the projects that will be shown during the evening: * **[A permanent echo](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3727200/a_permanent_echo/)**[ ](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3727200/a_permanent_echo/)by Three More Years * **[AFLOME](https://team-blimmm.itch.io/aflome)** by Team BLiMMM * **[Catch That Bus](https://thephantomdriver.itch.io/catch-that-bus-prototype)** by Nael Bachmaann * **[Che Casino](https://chef-andre.itch.io/che-casino)** by Turboschmuser * **[Echoes: Berlin](https://www.instagram.com/echoes__berlin/)** by Stijn Verstraete * **[GØRKJES - finger food fighting](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3614580/GRKJES__finger_food_fighting/)** by Basuramor / MoFX * **[Haunted Cleaner](https://headkino.cargo.site/games-haunted-cleaner-1)** by HeadKino Games * **[Hunting the Hunter](https://greenwavegames.webflow.io/)** by Green Wave Games * **[Incrementoad](https://vennnot.itch.io/)** by Vibe & Sync * **[Jumpless](https://ooleks111.itch.io/thereisnojump)** by Team Lobster * **[Realm Clash - GO!!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOsTD1LGRZ8)** by PhantoPaw * **[Saber Surfers](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/morphcat-games/triple-jump-a-platformer-multi-cartridge-for-the-nes)** by Morphcat Games * **[Saloon Tycoon](https://schleuder.games/)** by Schleuder Games * **[Sound Memory](https://github.com/lislis/sound-memory)** by lislis * **[Super Head Ball](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1579000/)** by Seth van Heijster * **[Swimpossible!](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3819490/Swimpossible/)** by Arcane Cabinet * **[Topic Kaleidoscopic](https://2026.award.amaze-berlin.de/games/2026/topic-kaleidoscopic)** by Anna Jonudottir * **[Tulip Season](https://store.steampowered.com/app/4067890/Tulip_Season/)** by Tatiana Kartashova * **[Untitled Car Twinstick Shooter Roguelike](http://iinacho.itch.io/)** by Nacho * **[Winnie-the-Pooh: Black Honey](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3687480/WinniethePooh_Black_Honey/)** by J6 Games * **[With a HEART and a GUN \[...\]](https://wiswis.itch.io/heartgunshoot)** by Wis • • • • • **ADDITIONAL INFO** Since restarting the event in 2023 we have asked attendees to wear a face mask. This requirement feels incredibly anachronistic these days so at the end of 2025 we decided to drop the requirement. That being said, **we ask everyone showing any signs of illness to be considerate and refrain from attending the event**. FFP2 masks will continue to be available at the door and we support anyone who feels like wearing one to protect themselves and others 💜 Are you attending the event for the first time, or are you coming on your own? The Talk & Play Ambassadors will be there to assist and answers any questions you have. Our Safe Space Policy http://berlingamescene.com/safe-space-policy/ encourages the behaviour at Talk & Play. We request that everyone who is affiliated with and participates to the event honours it. Our event is documented by Julian Dasgupta https://www.flickr.com/photos/12601747@N00/albums — for those who don’t want to be appear in any pictures, we're going to distribute stickers at the door to wear and signal this. Alcoholic drinks will not be sold or allowed to be consumed during the event. UE is a partially accessible venue. Feel free to contact us about your access requirements. This event is organised by the [Gamestorm Berlin e.V.](https://gamestormcollective.org/) Get in touch if you have any questions: info@berlingamescene.com
