Conferences

And what a great pool of games I sat down to check out! Very diverse titles gave me different experiences to try out on my busy second day at PAX East.

I checked out Aether & Iron at PAX East and was impressed with the alternate-reality film noir-style narrative adventure that Seismic Squirrel is creating.

I had the pleasure of chatting with passionate art directors David Levy and Gavin Whelan about the challenges of bringing the visuals of 'Dune Awakening' to the screen.

Using traps, turrets, and grenades as well as melee and ranged weapons, the four of us kept the restaurant clear and the sushi moving to the customers.

PAX East is chock full of amazing experiences for gamers, nerd culture enthusiasts, cosplayers, TCG fans, and frankly anyone who just enjoys a fun and varied experience in this rich ecosystem.

During the four days of PAX East I get a chance to explore many different types of games, some big, some small and others that just connect in a way I did not expect. In the case of Hollow Home I was struck by the messaging and effective game design …

It's always a great time at PAX East checking out the charitable Cookie Brigade, Lethal Shadows miniatures and Many Worlds Tavern's coffee and tea.

The final day of PAX East was full of tournaments, giveaways and great games like 'Tape to Tape,' 'Dragon is Dead' and 'Gudnak'.

Dressed in an incredibly stylish jacket, which he had designed just for PAX East, Suda sat with me and his translator to play a quick round of blackjack and talk about his games and career.

The game-play is a mix of exploration, planning, base building and combat when there is no other choice.
