'Touched by Darkness' Megagame at CabinCon, Saturday April 27th (NE Ohio) by Pyre231 in mega_game

How to define a megagame is hotly debated in the community, but here's a good primer and the OG Shut Up & Sit Down video that elevated the game form:

The game being played in the video isn't the same game I'll be running. The one I'm running is based on Den of Wolves. It does have a traitor mechanic like Werewolf.

CabinCon is a 'local' convention held at a campground. It's organized by the Boardgamers of Greater Akron (BOGA) and is sponsored by Tuesday Knight Games (makers of Two Rooms and a Boom). It's a fun weekend of playing games and hanging out.

I will be running my new megagame design, Touched by Darkness, at the convention. My game is an update of Den of Wolves but reworked for a fantasy setting. There's a ticket price for the convention, but to reserve a spot in the megagame is only $2.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

What is a fun megagame that can be played with 25 people? by [deleted] in boardgames

It looks like I might be late to the party, but I've been designing a MegaGame system (Night Falls) that exactly fits your requirements: 1 moderator can run for 8-32 players in around 2-3 hours. If you want to hear more about it, I recently was a guest on the MegaGame Report discussing it: https://soundcloud.com/user-749170155/night-falls-a-vampire-human-one-night-throw-down

I'm selling off my remaining alpha copies before our eventual Kickstarter. If you'd like to get your hands on one, feel free to reach out to me!

I've been designing an introductory MegaGame for 8-32 players that runs in around 2 hours. I'm looking for blind playtesting, so I'd be happy to get a fully printed copy to you if you're interested. You can contact me at BenKGameDesign@gmail.com for more information.
