Beskrivning

Why do children have imaginary friends?

Sometimes imaginary friends are there to help kids work through issues they can’t handle alone. Sometimes a lonely child is looking for company. Sometimes it’s because their real friends have imaginary friends. And sometimes, maybe, they’re just for fun.

In Playdate, a group of kids have been left with a teenage babysitter for an afternoon. There will be toys, craft time, pizza, and maybe some existential angst.

Playdate is a game about children dealing with difficult issues. It asks how we know what is real, and whether that even matters.

Content Warnings: Bullying, alcoholism, death or illness of family members, anaphylaxis, temper tantrums, existential angst, mid-game expectation shifts.

Costume (optional): Dress like kids on a playdate.

Sue Lee (UK): Nominally responsible for UK Freeforms, and part of the team that builds and presents Consequences. I’ve run many games in many places, including lasertag, freeforms, nordic and build your own. Gaming brings a huge amount of the joy into my life and I want to share it with as many people as possible.
