On Saturday it was time again for us to go to the holy halls of RPGs for our sixth Roleplaying Jam! For this event, we received a generous donation by the publisher Chaosium, with which we rewarded our wonderful GMs for hosting tables at this event. In addition, all attendees received a discount code for the Chaosium online store.
Needless to say, at this event we once again had several tables of Call of Cthulhu, but also of Pendragon. Among the other games played, we had tables with Blades in the Dark, Mörk Borg, Sky Team, Spire: The City Must Fall, Daggerheart and Break!!.
It was another awesome event, and we are looking forward to the next one!
Here are some impression from the event:
Last month we started a new event series, the Dungeoneer Game Master Campfire. The Campfire is a monthly, semi-structured event in which aspiring as well as experience RPG Game Master can exchange best practices on how to run a roleplaying game. The event is moderated and at each incarnation of this event we have 3-4 “firestarters”, that give their insights into a particular topic.
At the campfire that took place this week on Tuesday, the main topics were Session 0 and social contracts at the RP table, and we had lively discussions on these topics that evolved into a number of related topics. We already have quite a few topics for the next couple of campfires and would be excited to see you there!
If you’re interested in joining, keep an eye on our meetup group for the next campfire, or join our discord server, where events will be announced in the campfire-event channel.
At the fifth roleplaying jam, we once again had a wide selection of games on offer – this time, with a generous amount of Cthulhu-themed games, among others Call of Cthulhu, Cats of Catthulhu, Cyberpunk Red, DnD 5e, Daggerheart, Deathmatch Island, Delta Green, Dungeon Inc, For the Queen, Nechronica with Call of Cthulhu and Troika.
It was another awesome event, and we’re looking forward to the next one in June!
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.

Many thanks to Daria for some of these photos 🙂
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!
