Indie RPG Game Night (Geeky Teas)

Tue, Jun 16, 1:00 AM

From Story Games LA

4.9

WHAT IS THIS EVENT? At **Indie RPG Night** we gather to play story games and independent role-playing games (RPGs). These games are similar to role-playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) but tend to be simpler to learn, and have more shared narrative control for all players. WHO IS THIS FOR? Any experience level is welcome, with no prior knowledge required. Almost all games are meant to be played in a single night (sometimes called *one-shots* or *episodic*), so no regular attendance is necessary. WHAT GAMES DO WE PLAY? We play games that allow us to come together to have a good time telling a story collaboratively. We do not generally play games with a win condition. Some games we play have a game master (GM) and players, similar to D&D. Other games are “GM-less” or "GM-ful", and have no game master, where the rules of the game have us share narrative authority so we all have similar control over the story. Some examples include: * Apocalypse World * Blades in the Dark * Dream Askew * Fiasco * For The Queen * The Quiet Year * Microscope WHAT GAMES DO WE AVOID? We avoid role-playing games that may require players to have prior knowledge of rules (which is often the case with RPGs such as D&D). Many of us love board and card games, however this is not the event for those games. Note that some story games have elements that may look like board and card games, however we play games that share our goal of coming together to collaboratively tell a story. Although some board games have narrative elements (such as Above and Below), or can be played in a narrative manner (such as Arkham Horror), these do not meet our criteria. If you have any doubts, please talk to one of the organizers. It is also important that games played conform to our Community Standards (https://bit.ly/StoryGamesLA-CommunityStandards). WHERE AND WHEN IS THE EVENT? Locations vary so check the meetup event for the current location. On this night we play at **Geeky Teas & Games** in Burbank. We plan to meet up starting at 6pm, and pitch games promptly at 6:30pm. The venue closes at 10pm. Games tend to normally last 2-4 hours. Note that Geeky Teas requires a $8 cover fee that you pay directly to them upon entry to the venue. HOW DO I ATTEND? If you plan on attending, please RSVP here. We have tables reserved but space may be limited, so we will prioritize people who RSVP if we end up having too many folks. We will try to accommodate everyone best as possible. If your plans change, please update your RSVP as early as possible so we have an accurate count. You should not need to bring anything with you, however always feel free to bring writing utensils, dice, note cards, and so on. WHAT ARE THE RULES? We try to provide an inclusive space, and do not tolerate harassment or prejudice of any kind, including that based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or disabilities. By attending and participating you are agreeing to abide by our Community Standards (https://bit.ly/StoryGamesLA-CommunityStandards). If you have any issues, please contact one of the meetup organizers at any time, either during the meetup or afterwards. We use the X-card and other RPG communication and safety tools, which we write about in our Community Standards document, and review when our events start. HOW CAN I RUN A GAME? If you are new to the group and the events, we ask that you play the first few times to get a feel for the games we play, and for the environment and our community. If have done so, and wish to run a game, please get in touch with the meetup organizers either at the event, or in the **Story Games LA** **Discord** ([https://discord.com/invite/qbPzyRYBQv](https://discord.com/invite/qbPzyRYBQv)). After doing so, you simply need to bring the materials needed to play: rules, printouts, notecards or blank paper, tokens, printouts, and so on. We may have some of these items, but may not have what you need. HOW CAN I BE A PART OF THE COMMUNITY? The best place to participate with our community prior to or outside of the events is to join the **Story Games LA** **Discord** ([https://discord.com/invite/qbPzyRYBQv](https://discord.com/invite/qbPzyRYBQv)). This is also where we sometimes host our online events.

From Burbank DDR+

4.7

Join **Burbank DDR+** for an epic **Dance Dance Revolution** workout party! Get ready to break a sweat as we combine the fun of rhythm games with the benefits of exercise. Challenge your friends to dance battles, groove to awesome music beats and improve your fitness. **DDR** is fun, but it's much better with friends! Whether you're an *Expert* or a *Beginner*, this event is perfect for anyone looking to have a great time and make friends while staying active. Don't miss out on this unique fitness experience that will have you dancing your way to a healthier lifestyle. This venue has **DDR** (four cabs), **Pump It Up**, **StepManiaX** and more! There is NO AGENDA! IT'S OKAY if you arrive late! Simply show up, purchase a game card and get to steppin'! 💃🕺 Mid-session we typically take a break and grab a snack or a drink. Sometimes we walk over to one of the restaurants nearby (assuming one is still open). Not obligatory, but you're more than welcome to stick with us during the break. There are many usuals that show up every week but don't RSVP. Expect between four and eight of us to attend. Note: * All ages are welcome, but minors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian as **Round1** has restrictions later into the night. * Wear comfy clothes and appropriate shoes (NO HEELS). We support each other as best as we can, but can't be held responsible if you choose not to play it safe. * STAY HYDRATED! This venue provides water free of charge, but the ice machine is often out of service. Most of us bring our own water bottles and sometimes even our own fan. 🌬️ Look for "BLADE" (Konami ID) or ask any of the DDR players for my whereabouts. Hope to meet and play with you soon!
