A Summer Camp for Games?

Hey, are you in the Boston area and looking for the perfect summer activity for the young game designers in your life?

You should check out the Dice and Design Games Summer Camp in Belmont, MA!

This summertime gaming festival of fun is the creation of Caro Murphy, an award-winning game designer who not only founded the Boston Festival of Indie Games, but has lectured on game design at the university level and contributed heavily to Disney’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser interactive experience and Club Drosselmeyer events like this year’s Cthulhu Luau!

They’ve put together a five-day program to teach kids about game design and help them create their own card games, board games, roleplaying games, or LARPs, whatever interests them!

With morning and afternoon sessions to choose from, this seems like an awesome way to get the youngsters in your life started on a lifelong journey of game creating, appreciating, and collaborating.

Go to diceanddesign.com for more details on this event. (Thank you to the team at Club Drosselmeyer for spreading the word!)
