GoPlayDurham NOV 11TH || SOCK PUPPETS // THINGS FROM THE FLOOD //
Good evening, @everyone
The next Go Play Durham Event is fast approaching and will be taking place on 11/11/2026. This month Etna is bringing the excellent Things from the Flood which is sure to be a hit! Freddie is running the exceptionally silly Sock Puppets! And we are expecting we will have a third game run by Frazer (but we're awaiting the deets - we'll update as soon as we have them!).
**Go Play Durham RPG night - Wednesday 11th November**
--------
**Time**: 17:45pm arrival, start around 6pm, finish at 9pm.
**Location**: 3 of Cups, Café, Durham, North Road (Opposite the bus station)
**Entry**: FREE! (Please avail yourself to some of the café's delightful drinks and scrumptious snacks. The team are kind enough to host us for free, so the least we can do is make it worth their while. Heck give them a review on social media as well while you are there and support local business!)
--------
**Game 1 - Sock Puppets**
**Facilitator**: Freddie
**Players** : 5 (plus facilitator)
Sock Puppets is an award-winning tabletop RPG about a failing children's television series. Make *real, actual puppets *and use them to ruin a perfectly good puppet show. Designed in the style of petty squabbling games like Ghost Court or Fiasco, it's a playful, crafty, fast-paced game of hilarious hijinks.
You'll act as both your puppet and its troubled puppeteer, with baggage that they're taking onto the show. E.g. someone might be trying to get a vape sponsorship; someone might be pushing their cult; someone might want to make their cat famous...
Puppet making supplies will be provided and you'll get to take your rad puppet home at the end of the night!
**Tone**: It's going to be a mess, basically. A big, silly mess.
**Content warning**: We're playing as puppets in a kid friendly show, so there shouldn't be a huge amount of content warnings. That said, some of the puppeteers have ||kinks, smoking additions, cult affiliations etc.|| that may crop up in play...
**Game 2 - Things From the Flood**
**Game master**: Etna
**Players**: 4 (5 if necessary)
The Loop is closed. Sweden's idyllic countryside is suddenly flooded by dark water from the huge abandoned underground facility. Rumors spread in classrooms and schoolyards, stories about the flood and how it has brought something with it. One thing is clear: the past is not ready to be forgotten.
You play as a group of teenagers exploring the strange and often dangerous consequences of the Loop's influence: time travel, new forms of life, sentient machines... High school in the 90s Målaren islands is never uneventful.
This is a d6 game and pregenerated characters will be provided.
**Tone**: mystery, retro sci-fi.
**Content warning**: ||death, human experimentation, nightmares, birth||
