60 players! 6 hours! 100% fun! Inspired by the pilot of Battlestar Galatica, Den of Wolves is a cooperative megagame that combines elements of board games and diplomacy. Players cooperate to allocate resources while fending off waves of attacks from the vile "wolves". Beware! These wolves are tricky, and a traitor may roam amongst us.

Infinite Domain is an expansion to the original Den of Wolves which increases the player count and incorporates new ships as well as several bonus roles.

The Event

The Megagame Coalition is proud to present Den of Wolves - the modern megagame classic by the UK upstart designer, John Mizon of SW Megagames. The Infinite Domain expansion to the original Den of Wolves was designed by Portland Megagames, it increases the player count and incorporates new ships as well as several bonus roles.

A PAX Unplugged Convention Badge is required to attend this event.

Den of Wolves is one of the most-played megagames of all time, sporting strong themes common in military sci-fi (like the Alien series or The Expanse) and satisfying resource management mechanics. Folks familiar with the pilot of Battlestar Galatica will find very similar themes and setting.

The Setting

A small fleet of interstellar vessels tries to balance survival, politics and military challenges as they attempt to stay one step ahead of their pursuers.

It is the 27th Century. After a catastrophic attack on humanity, one battleship and a few civilian vessels must fight to survive, govern themselves and maintain order, as they flee from their pursuers. Den of Wolves is a game about difficult political, military and survival choices in a long-term crisis scenario. Players will take on the roles of starship captains, officers, and engineers, as well as politicians and military personnel. The game has a focus on managing resources, as well as various units and assets – however, talking and negotiating with other players will be crucial in order to achieve success. The game also seeks to represent political and military systems, and their decisions, and so players should expect some political simulation.

The Event

Surviville (pronounced “sur-vi-val”) is a fiction first, Narrative Megagame, with just the right amount of game mechanics to add tension, surprises, and ensure we’re all playing to find out what happens.

Designed by Trenton Greyoak (Deephaven) of Midwest Megagames, Surviville is a cozy post-post-apocalypse sim with a heavy gameplay emphasis on coordination and collaboration.

The Setting

All those bad things society used to worry about? They happened. Now, you’re one of the few survivors, trying desperately to make the best of what’s left. Find warmth and happiness in this bleak world filled with mad raiders, strange invaders, irradiated mutants, and wait, was that a zombie? Scavenge, survive, and… thrive? While you still can.

Every player is a potential ally. Collaboratively (re)build society and discover what new culture develops in the ashes of the world (if it ever stops burning). What is this, an armageddalong? Make no mistake: the world wants to destroy you. Or corrupt you, or… eat you, apparently. We are absolutely doomed. Together.

The Event

The Megagame Coalition is proud to present The World Turned Upside Down, the American Revolution Megagame by Ironmark Games.

The Setting

The World Turned Upside Down is a fast paced megagame of political unrest, international conspiracy, and the American Revolution. 60 players will take on the roles of famous lawmakers, generals, and spies of the period. Choose sides and guide your colony toward loyalty or rebellion. Your choices will decide the fate of America. The world will never be the same...

Players will become one of the famous figures of history in either the glorious British Empire or in the rebellious thirteen Colonies of America. In each round players decide which role is more important for them to fill at that time. You could begin your revolution in Congress, helping sway opinion (and funds) to your side. Soon afterwards you may be called back to your home to defend it as a Commander in the Continental Army. You decide how to best use your time throughout the game.
