About This Event

From Partiful, organized by Metagame Metagame is happening November 6-8 and we're kicking things off with Night Market, open and free to the public! What is Metagame, you ask? It's a weekend conference in Berkeley devoted to games, in the broadest sense of the word: any experience that is designed to be played, as opposed to passively consumed. This includes board games, card games, video games, tabletop games, LARPs, puzzle hunts, escape rooms, and so much more. Lots of people are building games specifically for it, and you can too. The Night Market will be an opportunity to exchange goods and services with fellow game aficionados. Sections include: * Games and Puzzles: Your indie TTRPG / jigsaw puzzle / 5-dimensional rubik's cube / escape room in a box! For sale! Right here! * Other Physical Stuff: Arts, crafts, foods, books, take-home items that don't fit in the "games and puzzles" category * Experiences: Try on a weird VR immersive bodysuit, get your fortune told, have a phenomenological time * Job Market: I wish to hire, get hired, or otherwise promote my company or self. Open for people on either side of the job market (or, I suppose, arbitrageurs in between the two sides) * Information Booth: Like a poster session, without any standards * Black Market: Rights to middle names, tickets to cheat in your next RPG, etc. Black market goods must still be legal! * Other: My booth is somehow too weird to fit into any of the categories above To apply to run a booth at Night Market, fill out this form: https://airtable.com/appROpPV6XUP4CSqX/pagWzXdF8eA6PfDXs/form Night Market is free, but for the rest of Metagame, you can get tickets here: https://www.metagame.games/#tickets
