Bristol Daytime Playtest meetup

If you're working on a game, whether it's an early idea or almost done, we want you! Board games, card games, puzzle games, silly or serious, short or long, any kind of game is welcome as long as it can be tested within a 90 minute slot.

And if you don't have a game but want to try out designers' games in progress, please come along. We always need eager playtesters!

If you are coming, please let us know how many people you need to test your game and which sessions you will be available for, so we can plan accordingly. We allocate designers with their playtesting slots on the day of the event and not before.

Our schedule is:
10:30am to 11:00am: arrive, meet, chat
11:00am to 12:30pm: playtest slot 1 (90 minutes)
~ 30 minute lunch break ~
1:00pm to 2:30pm: playtest slot 2 (90 minutes)
~ 30 minute break ~
3:00pm to 4:30pm: playtest slot 3 (90 minutes)

You don't have to stay for all three sessions (though we'd appreciate if you do!), but these events work on reciprocity, so if you're bringing a game, please stay long enough to test at least one other game. We will prioritise games by designers who plan to stay longer.

Designers of all levels of experience are welcome!

Values: We expect all attendees to be respectful and kind to one another. We will not tolerate discrimination, including but not limited to sexism, racism, ableism, homo/queerphobia or transphobia.

Please note: This is an adults only event.

We look forward to seeing you!
