EndGame is hosting a Magic: the Gathering Backdraft Tournament!
Sunday, November 17th. We’re going to do a bit of a wacky draft format here on Sunday 11/17 at 11am. You basically draft the worst deck possible then make a random switch with someone in the pod. $15 for the draft and we’ll re-draft rares and foils at the end with normal pack prizes based on wins.

12th Anniversary Excitement!
Saturday October 26 ALL DAY!
If you have been to one of our parties in the past, you know it will be just a FULL DAY OF GAMING!
We will be:
- Playing Magic the Gathering Pack battles from Noon to 2
- Holding FiascoCon (In the quiet space next door) from 10am
- Playing Warhammer 40,000 ALL DAY LONG!
- Playing Board Games ALL DAY LONG
Well, you get the idea. We will also have some fun door prizes throughout the day. Most importantly, we would like to see you. The gaming space is never more alive than when our community pack is full, and once a year we like to see all of our various communities come down and celebrate what we have going on. Let’s do this everyone!
See you there

EndGame is proud to host Improv for Gamers, Level 2!
Date: Saturday, December 7
Time: 10am – 5pm
Registration is required, see below for details.
As a gamer you may have heard that improv is closely tied to role-playing, especially in narrative-based games. It’s true, improv theater teaches many skills that can make your game rock: collaboration, embracing failure, and taking risks. The goal of this workshop series is to highlight those skills (and more!) as they apply to role-playing games through improv exercises and scenework.
Level 2 — We are expanding our content with GMs in mind. Level 2 will explore story-building, pacing, and finding the beat in scenes, as well as doing advanced scenework. For this workshop we ask that attendees have some prior improv experience (yes, just the Level 1 workshop counts!).
10am-5pm — The majority of the day will be pure improv. Following a meal break in the afternoon, we will be sitting down to Archipelago, a story game that highlights a lot of the ideas that we’ve explored.
Be prepared — Wear comfortable shoes and bring a bottle of water. We will be on our feet, moving about, and being very vocal!
How to attend — Go to improvforgamers.com at November 9th, noon to register.
