Freeplay - Angles Activities
Event description
Melbourne Megagames in collaboration with Freeplay presents The Ark, at Angles Activities!
The Ark Megagame
What’s a megagame?
Megagames are large, immersive social games. Somewhere between a LARP and a really big boardgame, megagames have elements of negotiation, politics, strategy, and role-playing.
What’s The Ark?
Earth is no longer a liveable planet. In our hour of greatest need, a vessel of unknown origin came to our aid, broadcasting in all languages. Humanity’s best and brightest have set off into the vastness of space on a journey to an unknown destination - hopefully, a new home - aboard the Ark. That was five years ago. The Ark is our home and our responsibility, even if we barely know how it works. If we break it, we die. If it doesn’t produce enough food to feed the people on it, we starve. If we go offship and the Ark leaves, we’re stranded.
The Ark is a game of resource management, intrigue, mystery, factional politics, changing loyalties, and constant crises. Plans are important, but remember, we’re all at the whim of interstellar space. Good luck!
Angles Activities Day 2 - TTRPGs & Board Games - has been cancelled due to lack of interest. ARC will be running an alternative tabletop games event that day; more info will be added as it becomes available.
