ZOE Presents: I'll Allow It (Live)

Friday 12:00 PM
1.5 hr · $6

ENT26ND306237

A standard fantasy campaign comes unglued when the GM lets players' worst impulses run wild. What happens when every harebrained and impossible idea is fair game? Attendees are encouraged to bring random gaming elements for the players and GM to incorporate: Pokemon cards, Beyblades, a travel edition of Battleship… last year's BBEG was defeated via an Uno Reverse card!

Looney Labs Presents: Andy vs. Everybody

Friday 3:00 PM
2 hr · $6

ZED26ND306248

Everybody will be playing a version of Fluxx or other Looney-designed games. Andy Looney will be one of the players at each table, but he won't have a chair — instead, there will be a small flag at his spot. When Andy sees the flag go up, he will run over to your table, take his turn, and lower the flag. Andy typically wins about a third of the time, but maybe this time, Andy will win more than Everybody!

Gamers Live: Gary On My Wayward Son

Friday 6:00 PM

ENT26ND306238 / 306239 · General & Premium seating

The live improvised RPG comedy sensation is back for one more year! Inspired by the popular "The Gamers" franchise, "Gamers Live" features a rotating cast of improvisers and actors from across the ZOE and DG universes. Suggestions from the audience shape the story as the performers respond to the chaos around them — hopping from gaming table to fantasy world and back again. Premium seating has priority for onstage participation on a first come, first served basis.
