Free event for anyone interested in table top games
🎲 What happens when historical research meets tabletop roleplaying?
Join LJMU’s Centre for Modern and Contemporary History and Handiwork Games on Tuesday 13 October for the launch of Cold City and Hot War, written and developed by LJMU historian Dr Malcom Craig.
Informed by Malcom’s research, these reimagined editions of two classic indie games draw on Cold War history, espionage fiction and post-apocalyptic storytelling to create imagined versions of modern history. They offer a creative way for players to engage with ideas explored through historical research.
Hear about the research behind the games, join the Q&A and have a go yourself!
