About ARC SPRING FLING - Games Night: Space and Place
A games night with a difference as we explore how games and gaming help us imagine space and place.

- Experience the 1885 Cambodian uprising against French colonial power through an expansive wargame
- Preview Hyperrealestate, a work-in-progress walking simulator world populated by a mass of zombie presidents.

- The University Games Society will showcase a variety of games of the video, board, and card varieties!

- Table football and table tennis available for the older than old-school gamers!
