Lectures and Workshops

Pixel Art <3

As it sounds, we play with pixels.

I have the beads and you have the creativity to create wonderful works of art.
Use the books/paper available. Otherwise, searching on Google also works.

A little mindfulness and a short break for the moment.

Costs a penny, from SEK 5 upwards.

Welcome <3

The podcast room

The podcast room is a gathering place for all RPG podcasters, listeners and curious people who just want to come in and listen for a while. There will be a rolling schedule of role play sessions and panel discussions in front of an audience, as well as some time for meet and greets. If you miss the live performances, you will be able to hear them in various podcasts after the convention.

There will also be several roleplays and other fun behind closed doors that will be released in various podcasts afterwards. So that you can get back the convention feeling long afterwards.

RopeLIVE

RopeLIVE (also known as RPG Live) has introduced the Finnish audience to a concept of interactive and participatory TTRPG streams.

Established in autumn 2021, Yle (Finnish Public Service) has broadcast six live broadcasts of between four and five hours of newly created game concepts where celebrities have gathered around a table together with the audience to embark on adventures in alien worlds. Everything from fantasy to haunted houses and the dark side of the moon to fantastic worlds in other galaxies.

The concept is created and arranged by a small group of enthusiastic players with decades of experience in various role-playing games and are active in the Finnish role-playing hobby.

With RopeLIVE, the audience has a big role in the outcome of the game. The chat space provides not only the ability to influence the game and give orders to the characters, but also a friendly and enthusiastic community space to share thoughts and experience the adventure on a whole new level.

RopeLIVE has become a very popular gaming concept in Finland, uniting thousands of players and tens of thousands of unique viewers. And now Sweden gets the chance. In 2024, the concept is planned to be expanded to Sweden in collaboration with SVT, and the next game is planned to be released simultaneously in Sweden and Finland.

Come and listen to the creators of RopeLIVE. Hear what the concept is about, how the Swedish version will work and why we need YOU to help us make the next game better than ever!
