Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene Bonus Episode: Stephen Price is Rising Phoenix Game Con.

In this episode we talk with Stephen Price again as our first recording was half eaten by the podcast gods. In this episode we talk about the new game con called Rising Phoenix Game Con in Milford Massachusetts coming in April 17-19 2020. From the beginnings the group putting this game convention wanted it to be a bit different. They want their attendees to be immersed in the gaming world. Coming from LARP roots these game con creators are working to make it seem like your going to a Renaissance Faire. They are working to offer a wide variety of Roleplaying Games to their attendees along with boardgames and even miniature games.

Stephen Price is part of the committee that is putting on Rising Phoenix Game Con. He chats with us about the vision of their group. We also discuss what they are looking for in GMs for their con and the type of Con experience they are trying to give their attendees.

Some ideas that tell us this group is really thinking they have two separate room blocks. One block for the die hard gamers that want that max experience with lots of games and little sleep. And a quiet block of rooms for those that actually want to sleep, like more than a few hours or have a small children that really need a quiet setting.

As always thanks for listening and all we ask is that you share our podcast with family and friends.
