The Kids Day Badge still provides full access to the event. Kids Day will provide an extra emphasis on family-friendly games, as well as offering reduced single-day Kids Day Badges for the Under 12 crowd. The final day of the expo, Sunday, is designated Kids Day. It seems that event organizers have failed to learn their lesson, and allowed Seamus (2017) and I (2018) to return for our second years in attendance.

Ho adventuring gamers We are on the eve of PAX Unplugged in downtown Philadelphia, and two of us fellow Cannibal Halflings will be lurking about. Unplugged focuses exclusively on tabletop games, board games, and RPGs, from a massive freeplay area with lending library to a dedicated area for painting minatures. All other PAX events focus on video games and the gaming industry, with a light sprinkling of tabletop. Like other PAX shows, PAX Unplugged features an exhibit hall stuffed with vendors, develoeprs, and publishers, discussion panels, musical performances, and tournaments. Not to mention another big board gaming convention, BGG Con, that took place at the same time last year. That should hopefully ease the chaos of traveling around the holidays. Because this will probably be taken down: the dates are listed as 11/28-12/3, which means its likely that the even will be 11/30-12/2 plus setup and takedown days. Last year it took place the weekend before Thanksgiving, but this year the dates have been shifted two weeks later, taking place Nov 30 – Dec 2. PAX Unplugged 2018 will take place at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, PA. Don’t worry, it’ll still be focused on tabletop gaming, but parts of the building will be opening up to us this year and we should have a bit more room to stretch our legs and smooth out some of the wrinkles. “Not just come back, but we’re growing the scope of the show considerably. “I know we’re biased, but we really did have a blast at Unplugged last year and we’re really excited to come back,” states the official announcement.
