“The Beach Episode” a Standard One Shot in the All Outta Bubblegum system. Led by Ansel Burch

A seemingly normal trip to the beach escalates to an all-out melee as it turns out every single sunbather is a world-class assassin.

This slapstick rollercoaster will be a great time if you like wild swings of success, madcap storytelling, and very little forward momentum

We will build characters in the session.

New players are welcome.

The game runner is very familiar with this system.

Interstellar Isolation - An “All Out Of Bubblegum” Space Horror Game

Interstellar Isolation - An “All Out Of Bubblegum” Space Horror Game

A game in the All Outta Bubblegum system, led by Adam Mc.

You are a crew member of the rescue ship Marlowe-5. You’ve just been awakened from hypersleep to investigate a distress signal from the colony on planet Centaurus-Gamma. You are contractually obligated to examine the nature of the signal, offer aid, and protect THE COMPANY’S resources. Not necessarily in that order. I’m sure it will be… fine. Using the All Out of Bubblegum system, which tends to swing wacky, but would like to see how it handles for a horror one shot.

This game will be great if you like Alien, Event Horizon, Sunshine, Interstellar.

We will build characters in session.

This game will lean a bit to the grim side and balance combat with role play.

This game will be hosted on the con discord in room #2 and will be open to spectators.

CW: Space horror.

Double Bill of Chaos!: Bubblegum RPG & Everyone Is John

A game in the Bubblegum RPG & Everyone Is John systems led by John Keefe

Two anarchic RPG's for the price of one! In Bubblegum RPG, you shall play as a gang of buffed-up, ultraviolent 80's action stars on a quest to complete a sightseeing tour of Chicago landmarks. Can you get from the Picasso to the Bean without burning the city down? Let's find out! Then to wrap up, we'll play Everyone Is John, a game where you play as voices in the head of a man named John, competing for control over his strange destiny. What are your goals? Where is he going? Which voice will win in the end? Even the GM doesn't know yet! But it will probably involve blowing things up.

  • This game will be great if you like comedy, competition, and cartoonish chaos.

  • We will build characters in session., Players will have a short survey to fill out to gather material.For Bubblegum, players will be invited to make an Expendables-style action persona. For John, players will decide their own skills, goals, and will offer locations we will cycle through randomly as we play (can be anything from Costco to Grandma's House to Middle-Earth to Mars. No limits, pure anarchy).

  • This session will be great for new players!

  • These games will be goofy and lean a little toward combat.

  • This game will be hosted on the con’s discord server and open for spectators.

  • Content Warnings: Humorous violence, humor relating to mental illness (i.e. "hearing voices")

In this game, you’ll play as a group of archeologists, historians, trail cooks, and other NPCs on a dangerous journey to learn the secrets of the Temple of the Prowling Queen. While the showboating PCs are bound and determined to set off every trap in the temple, no one seems to be taking care of these valuable artifacts! It’s up to your group to not only preserve the beauty of the temple, but maybe even save the day.

  • This game will be great if you like The Mummy, The Princess Bride, Dimension 20.

  • Characters will be built in session. This game will be set in a fairly standard DnD world, loosely based on Chult. Character sheets won’t be needed for this game, but please feel free to use standard DnD ancestries and tropes to imagine your character. The Prowling Queen is an ancient Tabaxi goddess invoked as a protector from the undead. The ideal character for this one-shot would be an NPC in any other campaign. Archeologist, historian, trail cook, guide, translator, stable hand, squire, etc....
