The Event

Philadelphia Megagames is collaborating with Citylight Church Manayunk to throw a FREE* megagame.

*Donations recommended.

It Came From . . . The Skies! is a megagame of epic proportion! Earth finds itself home to a visitor from the stars! It is up to you to decide how to respond to this new potential threat! Take on the role of one of the leaders of a nation (4 person team), the worldwide media network (2 person team), or even the aliens themselves (6 person team)! 

So join over 40 other “humans” to rise up & defend “your” home planet against a mysterious, otherworldly menace as a Head of State, Scientist, Ambassador, General, Journalist, CEO, or [redacted] in this alien invasion megagame inspired by Jim Wallman’s (Stone Paper Scissors) classic megagame, Watch the Skies.

The War Room (pre-war, obviously)

The Setting

How does the world respond when Alien spacecraft fill the skies? As chaos erupts and panic spreads, will you put aside your petty squabbles and forge new alliances to navigate this new threat?

It all begins on an ordinary day when mysterious alien spacecraft suddenly fill the skies, casting eerie shadows over the nations of Earth. As chaos erupts and panic spreads among the global population, you and your fellow leaders must navigate a treacherous path to secure the survival of humanity. The fate of the world rests on your shoulders, and the decisions you make will shape the future of Earth.

Will you choose diplomacy and seek peaceful coexistence with these enigmatic beings from beyond the stars? Or will you lead your nation into a desperate and courageous defense against the alien invaders? The clock is ticking, and every decision you make will have far-reaching consequences. Forge alliances, mobilize your military, engage in high-stakes negotiations, and make choices that will determine the destiny of our planet.

The United Nations (pre-disunion, obviously)
