Indie RPG Game Night (Online)

NOTICE: We have changed our start time. Starting at 6pm come to socialize. At 6:30pm (previously: 7pm) we gather to pitch games and get into tables. Also our Open Door Policy is strongly in effect, and if you aren't feeling up to gaming you can leave at any time, even after socializing or listening to games being played.

Due to pandemic our meetups occur online in the Story Games Glendale Discord instead of our usual location at Game Haus Cafe. Please RSVP here so we get an idea of attendance and to get the discord link. See you online!

***

Come join our Tuesday evening Indie RPG Night where we play story games and independent role-playing games (RPGs). Some games have a game master and players in a way similar to Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) and traditional RPGs; examples include Apocalypse World, Dungeon World, and Blades in the Dark. Some games are “GM-less” and have no game master, instead using shared narrative authority; examples include Microscope, Fiasco, and The Quiet Year.

Everyone of any experience level is welcome, with no prior knowledge required. Almost all games are one-shots or episodic, so no regular attendance is necessary.

If you plan on attending, please RSVP so we can arrange for the right number and sized tables. If your plans change, please update your RSVP as early as possible so we have an accurate count. If there are no attendees close to the date, we may cancel the meetup (check that specific date on our calendar for details).

We'll pitch games promptly at 6:30pm, and games generally run for 1-3 hours. A few of us will be there at 6:00pm, so show up early if you want to do introductions and social stuff.

We try to provide an inclusive space, and do not tolerate harassment or prejudice of any kind, including that based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or disabilities. (If you have any issues, please contact one of the meetup organizers at any time, either during the meetup or afterwards.) We use the X-card and other RPG safety mechanics, and will discuss these just prior to gaming. For details, please read our Community Standards document at https://bit.ly/SGG_CommunityStandards.

If you plan on pitching or facilitating a game, try and bring the materials you need to play.
