Test your mettle in the "City of Ascension".

Drop-in and play a short fantasy card game where you will try to ascend from the city streets, past the monoliths and god chains to finally reach the silver city, beyond the clouds – or fall beyond the deepest of the deep, into the dark netherworld.

This game can be played by 1-5 players.

This is a card game in development by Two Crows Games, based on the "Scoundrels" ruleset (a deck of cards dungeon crawler), expanded with more narrative, and cooperative gameplay - played in a quirky fantasy setting.

Organized by Svenska Magic.

There are loads of games you get pressured into buying at conventions that you could just as well play with a regular deck of cards. In this drop-in activity, you’ll get to learn some of them. Expect some well-known favourites, with a slightly different look.

In addition to the games you may already know, we’ll teach freshly designed card games that only use a standard deck, as well as a few we think most people have missed. You’ll find everything from team games to free-for-alls, co-ops, and solitaires. Come alone or bring a bunch of friends.
If you're extra nice and well-behaved, you might even get to play games that use some more unusual decks.

Hopefully, you’ll leave with one or two new favorites you can play anytime there’s a deck of cards nearby. And there usually is.

This event is part of Materialist Game Labs’ line-up at GothCon. We want to look at gaming culture from a fresh perspective and find ways to make it more fair, welcoming, and accessible—all in the hope that together we can build a living gaming culture rather than just a commercial hobby.

Thom Király is a game designer and game educator based in Malmö. He will act as your guide on this journey through a cheapskate's attempts to use their 52 friends to avoid stuffing their shelves with games that would work just as well with standard cards.
