Night Games transforms IndieCade East and the Museum of the Moving Image into a giant beeping, sweating playful party. With social, physical, performative and persistent games filling the halls, Night Games is an event to be played, watched and enjoyed all at the same time. Night Games will include everything from giant projected video games to light physical games to improvisational theater games. Night Games combines party and arcade into one evening of play.
Strange Arcade
Strange Arcade features dozens of games and experiences that use costume controllers, embedded media technologies, re-appropriated consumer devices, and other subverted technologies to create strange play performances and explore new ways of sharing stories.
eSports Showcase
Play new competitive games or cheer along as commentators narrate the exciting action. Tournaments all weekend long will crown champions of the indie videosports of tomorrow.
