I always try to invite my friends to try out my hobbies; whether that be board games, disc golf or, yes, Megagames. I love sharing the things I enjoy with the people I enjoy. Everything is more fun when you’re surrounded by your friends. Why is it so difficult to get people to try a Megagame?

Your first in-person Megagame is an exciting thing. You’ve been messaging back and forth with your team for a couple weeks, so you know your role (you might be assigned a role in some cases, it just depends on the game) Now, there are so many unknowns and there’s so much anticipation of what will happen on game day. How do we get ready?

Megagames require a hefty investment in time and that investment is paid off with Mega Memories. The unique intersection of huge groups of people, divided into teams, further divided into separate roles and crossing paths in weird and unusual ways creates memories that, for me, are unmatched by other forms of gaming.

What exactly is a Megagame?

This question is far more difficult to answer than it should be, but here it goes.

A Megagame is part role-playing game, part board game, part social deduction game where 30+ people are separated into teams working towards specific goals.
