I will admit it. I kinda take GaryCon for granted. It's a fun con and it usually happens around my kid's spring breaks and it is only about an hour-long drive. We can go there, play some games and sleep in our own beds afterward.
Well, leave it to this pandemic to let me know what got once it is gone!
This year I, along with the rest of Elf Lair Games, will be running some NIGHT SHIFT games for Ethereal Gary Con XIII.
This year I am running NIGHT SHIFT: Veterans of the Supernatural Wars along with Elf Lair Games founder Jason Vey and Derek Stoelting (one of our long-time collaborators from our Eden Studios days).
Registration for badges is ongoing, event registration has begun for some badge holders and will open up next week.
Here are the games we are running.
You are the SPECTOR DETECTORS! The hottest ghost hunting channel on FaceTube! Or at least you will be, one day. Right now you are busy checking out every reported haunted house in the tri-county area. Your team knows that the ghosts are fake, with a little bit of technological know-how and some good-sounding esoterica. You hope your next assignment, the historic Willow Crest Manor, will be your ticket to internet fame, glory, and plenty of advertising impressions.
Let’s Get Detecting!
This introductory NIGHT SHIFT game is run by RPG co-designer Tim Brannan.
Event Number 1026
Saturday at 2:00 PM (Central Time)
Hosts Timothy S. Brannan (1749)
Room 04 - Fate of the Norns Room
Duration 3 hours
I wish I could play them all, to be honest. It has been YEARS since Derek, Jason and I have thrown dice together at a Con.
NIGHT SHIFT should appeal to fans of old-school games and modern supernatural/paranormal fiction fans. Essentially if you like the work we all have done of previous games (Buffy, AFMBE, Ghosts, AA, and more) then you should enjoy this.
I'll post when the games are ready for registration.
Eden Studios? Interesting. Imagination Games & Comics used to be the FLGS for me, and George Vasilikos is back in retail through Zombie Planet these days.
