SQ 209 PAX Unplugged 2023 Recap

Mad Dungeon

This week we talk about all the fun we had at PAX Unplugged 2023.

Thursday: Andrew set up the Exalted Funeral booth while Steve said hi to Tony Vacinda (Plus One Exp), Pelle Nilsson and Johan Nohr (MÖRK BORG), Brian Colin (Vast Grimm), Jarrett Crader (Space Penguin Ink) and Brian Shutter (Neon Lords of the Toxic Wastelands). Then they both went to a party hosted by 9th Level Games.

Friday: Andrew worked the Exalted Funeral booth while Steve ran Mad Dungeon rooms using OSE: Old School Essentials in the Alexandria RPG Library room. Steve walked the hall and got some time with Joey Royale, the folks at Quest Chest, Craig Cambell (Nerdburger) and Brigette Winter (Psychic Trash Detectives). Steve was able to get in a game of The Walking Dead (Free League) before meeting Andrew at the BackerKit party where we threw axes with Joseph Goodman (Goodman Games), Banana Chan, Jason Furie (Realm Runners), Justin Sorios (Severed Books) & Adam Good and Jamie Perez (Stations - An Infinity of Ships).

Saturday: Steve ran another group through Epic Level Mad Dungeon rooms before meeting Andrew at the Exalted Funeral booth just in time for a signing with artists David Hoskins and Justine Jones. Steve played in Levi Combs (Planet X Games) D&D 1E game exploring his Escape from Skullcano Island adventure. That night they all convened at a party hosted by Kickstarter before a wild night of Karaoke with the entire Exalted Funeral crew, the Mork Borg fellas, Zac Goins (WoGD), Jarrett Crater (Space Penguin Ink), Cassi Mothwin (Clean Spirit, The Sticker Game) who won The Tabletop Award for Rising Star: Designer, and the award’s hosts Wheels & Maddie from Dicebreaker.

Sunday: After a Philly cheesesteak breakfast, Steve and Andrew attended the Tabletop Music: Professional Nerd Musicians Q&A panel with Arcane Anthems, Nur-D, Denkles, Ginny Di, Omega Jones, Emaline Stirling, and Will Savino.
