Düsseldorf's English-speaking gaming community
A couple of times a year, our wonderful hosts at sipgate organize a large board game event. Usually this event is in very high demand, which was also the case again last Friday on the 31st of January 2025. Roughly 80 people were playing a great variety of board games. As usual, sipgate offered free drinks and snacks which were greatly appreciated by everyone who attended the event.
Here are a few impressions from the event:
Yesterday we hosted another roleplaying event, and the second one hosted at Jugendkirche. After having hosted at this gorgeous location in October, we were really excited to get the ball rolling to make this a regular event series.
This time, we had 11 adventures run by our wonderful volunteer GMs: Brindlewood Bay, City of Most – Powered by the Apocalypse, Call of Cthulhu, Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Dungeons & Dragons 5.5e, Eat the Reich, JoJo’s bizarre TTRPG, Mausritter, Triangle Agency, Vampire the Masquerade, and Vaults of Vaarn. For full descriptions, the past event details can be accessed here.
Thanks to everyone who joined and who made this an excellent event! We are already preparing the next RPG Jam, which will take place at the end of March.

On the 19th of October, we organized the third Roleplaying Jam event here with the Düsselgamers community. After the first two events were held in different, smaller locations, this time we think we found the perfect place to play: Jugendkirche in Oberbilk. This church is used primarily as an event center and is rather chill, and so was the atmosphere at this event.
Altogether, nine awesome game masters and mistresses hosted adventures of Alien, Cairn, Pathfinder 2E, Fallout, Chronicles of Darkness, Mörk Borg, Never Going Home, Paranoia and Vampire: the Masquerade. With nine tables actively playing, we still had plenty of space all around, and it was never too noisy to play.
Many thanks to Daria and Lóng for the photos!
