THE GAMES WE PLAY​

We play a wide range of roleplaying games and board games. We usually have at least three roleplaying games running at the same time and we try and plan them a bit in advance so everyone knows what their in next (and so the GMs can plan...)

Our roleplaying games run in 'cycles' so we can start and finish them around the same time - this makes it easy for everyone to play different games with different people. It works really well.

Every five weeks we pause for a board games. This is a great time for new people to drop in and play some games. 

What's happening when?

We schedule all our upcoming events on Meetup.

​There you'll find more details about each game that's running over the next few weeks. It's also a great way to chat with us if you're interesting in joining.

We love to hear from other gamers. You can also contact us directly via our Contact page. 

Quick view

If you just want an idea of what we play, here's what roleplaying games we've played recently. You can select a game title for more details about each system. 

Recently Played...

Werewolf the Apocalypse
In Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou (werewolves) were made to defend the earth from the cosmic forces that threaten to tear it apart. The Garou fight against the Wyrm, the destroyer. It is a struggle against nearly insurmountable odds, especially considering the rivalry between many tribes. These rivalries make it almost impossible for the werewolves to present a unified front against a cosmic force that pervades reality.
Floria: The Verdant Way
In Floria: The Verdant Way, you play a Floria - a wizard of the mystic woods. Empowered by a magical plant that grows symbiotically from your body, you wield nature magic to preserve the balance between the endless woods and the tiny human settlements hiding in the shadows of the trees.

This unique system turns every battle into a colourful, artistic climax to your journeys.
End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse
The dead rise and stalk the earth, hungry for the flesh of the living. All that stands between a zombie and your brain are your skills, wits, and talents. Life as you know it is about to end, and one way or another, you’ll experience the apocalypse and make your way through the aftermath… if you can survive that long!

This roleplaying game offers you the chance to play as yourself during the tumult of the apocalypse.
The Yellow King
​Inspired by Robert W. Chambers’ influential cycle of short stories, YKRPG pits the characters against the reality-altering horror of The King in Yellow.

In the first installment, the mindbending influence of Carcosa permeates the night-time streets of Belle Époque Paris. It is 1895. You, a close-knit band of American art students, wish only to learn your craft, soak in the greatness of the masters, and submit to the tipsy whirl of Parisian revelry. But when you stumble across a sinister play that alters perceptions, shifts realities, and summons the uncanny, you can’t help but investigate a hidden world of menace and danger.
Mork Borg
The world is rot and despair. Sung into being by the twin-headed basilisk which crept out of the pits. Eternal and finite. The cathedral which stands in the city which has always been but never was.  The lies of Basilisks broke the world. The truths of Basilisks are which makes the world turn. 

You are those who were called back to serve. To set wrong what once was right.  The Basilisks would destroy the heresies which affront it. You are their arms, their entrails, their blood.  There is only fealty or death.  Mork Borg is a rules light OSR inspired black metal RPG, or as the designers describe it, a spiked flail to the face. 
Summon Skate
You have been empowered to protect this world from the creatures that lurk in the formless chaos beyond, given powers by Lady Cosmos herself. With your enchanted skate gear, you skate (or surf, ride or fly) on the world stage, the battle dimension shielding the fragile earth from the eldritch monstrosities lurking in the shadows.
You must trace mystic sigils into the world stage to conjure your magical allies, the figures of myth and legend bound to your aid.
Alien
The mission was a manhunt, the objectives clear: track down four fugitives, recover any assets they may have made off with, and keep ‘em all out of enemy hands. Nothing you couldn’t handle. Of course, now there’s something else too. Something much worse. Something out there hates you. Hates everyone. Something big and ugly. Something with metal teeth. And you’re pretty sure it ain’t alone.

Yeah, the mission was supposed to be a simple manhunt. Instead it turned out to be just another glorious day in the corps.
Dungeons & Dragons 5e: The Serpent's Stone
Your village was attacked by... something, leaving your families and all the other inhabitants petrified, transformed into cold, unfeeling stone.

You must travel to the Valley of the Stone Serpent to seek out the creature that has caused this, and attempt to undo the curse!

Board / card Games

We've got many board games and card games. Some are owned by the club, many more are owned by our members. Here's just a few we enjoy. You can click the image for a larger version and click the title to open the game listing on Board Game Geek.
Spirit Island
A cooperative, settler-destruction strategy game.

Players are different spirits of the land, each with their own unique elemental powers, forced to defend their island home from colonizing Invaders spreading blight and destruction. Work with your fellow spirits and the Dahan (local islanders) to increase your power and drive the invading colonists from your island in this deep and complex area-control game!
Sentinels of the Multiverse
A cooperative, fixed-deck card game with a comic book flavour. Each player plays as one of ten heroes, against one of four villains, and the battle takes place in one of four different dynamic environments.

A team of heroes, all with impressive powers and abilities stand between the world and the forces of evil. Will you help them? Answer the call to protect the multiverse!
Dead of Winter
A meta-cooperative psychological survival game. Players are working together toward one common victory condition — but for each individual player to achieve victory, he must also complete his personal secret objective.

Certain games could end with all players winning, some winning and some losing, or all players losing. Work toward the group's goal, but don't get walked all over by a loudmouth who's looking out only for his own interests!
Lanterns: The Harvest Festival
Lanterns: The Harvest Festival is a tile placement game set in imperial China.  Players act as artisans decorating the palace lake with floating lanterns.  The artisan who earns the most honor before the festival starts wins the game. 
Carcassonne
In Carcassonne, players build the area surrounding this impressive city, one tile at a time. They then place a follower on fields, cities, roads or monasteries in order to score as many points as possible. These followers will become knights,monks, farmers and thieves, depending on where they are placed. No matter their followers' function, the player who will most cleverly use their followers will win the game...
Flash Point: Fire Rescue
A cooperative game of fire rescue. Work as firefighters attempting to rescue victims from a raging building fire. As you work, the fire is spreading to other parts of the building, causing structural damage and possibly blocking off pathways. Extinguish fires, avoid flash overs, explosions and building collapse to save the victims trapped inside...
Lords of Waterdeep
Take on the role of one of the masked Lords of Waterdeep, secret rulers of the city. Through your agents, you recruit adventurers to go on quests on your behalf, earning rewards and increasing your influence over the city. Expand the city by purchasing new buildings that open up new actions on the board, and hinder – or help – the other lords by playing Intrigue cards to enact your carefully laid plans.
