Role Play
The theme of the 15th edition of Play – the Games Festival is “Role, Experience, and Storytelling”, celebrating 50 years of Dungeons & Dragons and Role-Playing Games.
Play 2024 theme “Role, Experience, and Storytelling” celebrates the 50th anniversary since the birth of Dungeons & Dragons and Role Playing Games,
This year's theme playfully explores the concepts and meanings of role, narrative, and experience. We delve into the multifaceted role of gaming in society; not just the experience of role-playing, but also the broader societal roles games play. Here “experience” refers to both to the experiences within the game and to the overall impact games have beyond mere entertainment.
Building on last year’s focus, the Festival will also explore storytelling and its functions across all types of games.
Visitors can expect a rich programme filled with gaming events, talks, and workshops, all designed to celebrate the world of Role-Playing Games and their significant impact on the broader gaming industry, especially board games.
