10:00 AM – Cyberpunk RED: the original roleplaying game of the dark future; a world of corporate assassins, heavy-metal heroes and brain burning cyberhackers, packed with cutting edge technology and intense urban action.
You need a vacation. And you almost believed you were going to get one. But Night City don’t work that way, choom.
Thus, here you find yourself, 17,000 feet up, herded at gunpoint to the rear of a commercial jet by a gang of cybered up hijackers. The leader makes impossible demands to law enforcement, and when negotiations break down, he reveals a bomb in the cargo hold, causing panic to ripple through the helpless passengers. But these terrorist assholes didn’t know you would be here. Bad luck for them. As airplane monitors switch to a video feed showing a 02:30 countdown timer, you take the fight into your own hands. You have two and a half in-game minutes to fight your way to the cargo hold, find the bomb and defuse it! Do you have what it takes? Play this high octane action adventure, and experience what it’s like to live on the edge!
2:00 PM – Call of Cthulhu is Chaosium’s classic roleplaying game of Lovecraftian horror in which ordinary people are confronted by the terrifying and alien forces of the Cthulhu Mythos.
The detour back from your camping trip rewarded you with breathtaking vistas, but a sudden vehicle breakdown leaves you stranded off the beaten path, with few supplies and nighttime quickly approaching. Your cell signal is weak, but a quick web search informs you of some… strange folklore about this region, and also that the nearest town is only a couple miles away. The road is too meandering, but you all might make it to town before dark if you hike in a straight line. The only thing between you and civilization is the Trepidity Woods, which stand before you, dark and foreboding. But you have no choice; instinctive fear warns you that you mustn’t be out here at night, and you have little food / water, so the only way forward is through… You have a few hours, realtime, to make it to safety before nightfalls. Good luck! This quest wraps up completely at the end of our session. So as you enter the Woods and shadows lengthen; as horrific folklore tickles the back of your mind, keep your wits about you. And above all else, DO NOT PANIC!
