Free Playtesting with Break My Game Nottingham

Break My Game Nottingham is running another free tabletop game playtesting session at ARC Space on Thursday 22 October, starting at 19:00. It's an in-person night for gamers and designers to get their creations on the table and see how they actually play, whether the game is still a rough sketch on the back of an envelope or nearly ready for publication.

The way it works is straightforward: you book either a free Designer Ticket to register your game or a free Playtester Ticket if you're there to help others. If you've got something you're working on, it's a chance to get it in front of people and hear what works and what doesn't; if you're just coming to play, you'll get to try out a few different things in one evening. The organiser also runs an online community on Discord and is part of The Pastel Project, so there's a wider group to connect with beyond the night itself.

The venue is ARC Space Nottingham, a community-focused coworking space in the city centre. It's located in the Laceworks Bar on Western Street, NG1 3AZ, and occupies a former lace factory—the whole place was designed, built and managed by a resident team of architects, so it's a bit more than your average office space. It's a good spot to spend an evening if you're into the tabletop scene.

Entry is free, and the session kicks off at 19:00 on Thursday 22 October at ARC Space, Laceworks Bar, Western Street, Nottingham, NG1 3AZ.
