RPG - Red in Tooth and Claw - A Jurassic Park Cinematic Scenario for Alien the RPG (4/5) 2pm-6pm Led by: Arno Byrd Welcome to the Ride-Out Crew! All the other InGen employees left before the storm hit, and now it's up to you to hold down Site B until Hurricane Iniki passes. You unlucky few are responsible for ensuring the safety of InGen's chief assets - the cloned dinosaurs. The storm is expected to last just under a week, during which time you are to make sure the animals are cared for, the facilities remain operational, and order is maintained. Remember, chaos is what killed the dinosaurs, darling. This scenario uses a modified version of Alien: The Role-Playing Game (Evolved Edition) for its rules. A Cinematic scenario emulates the dramatic arc of an ALIEN film (er...I mean Jurassic Park). Designed to be played in a single session, this game mode emphasizes high stakes and fast and brutal play. Conflict between player characters is likely, and you are not all expected to survive.
3pm Puzzle Hunt! 3pm-5pm Led by: The Puzzled Pint Sponsored by Van Ryder Games! A Puzzle Hunt is a collection of four puzzles. But these are not typical “puzzles”. They are often direction-less, and may incorporate traditional puzzles like crosswords, word searches, cryptograms, jigsaw puzzles, word play and logic problems. If you like any sort of logic or word puzzle, you’ll like these. The four puzzles combine to help you solve the final Meta Puzzle. Everyone that participates will be put into a drawing for Game Point gift cards!

The player characters are WEREWOLVES, each of whom has their own connection to the town and reasons to disrupt this project.
