Renga

Now here’s a test for your collaborative skills. You need to rebuild a spaceship, face down your evil nemesis, and steer your craft home. A familiar gaming scenario perhaps, but in this case you are one of 100 players controlling the action onscreen with laser pointers. Unless you work as a team, you’re doomed.

This ingenious Midlands-born crowd game has been wowing participants in Austin and Toronto, and it’s tailor-made for Flatpack. If you’d like to know more about the story behind Renga, its makers will be talking at Unpacked – and ticket-holders for Unpacked can get into Renga half-price. Booking ahead is recommended.
