Storm Clodagh might have huffed and puffed its way through Ireland, but it didn’t dampen the folks who turned up to UnPlugged on Sunday 29th November. So a huge shout out and thank you to those who made it, the organisers who helped make it happen (Manuel, Dan, Baz, and Mick) as well as Pulse College for hosting us all day.

Thanks to our prize sponsors, Imirt & Spielmaterial, as well as The T-Shirt Company for the t-shirts.

This is the space for UnPlugged at Pulse, pretty awesome space, right!

Theme…

This is the first time we used constraints, which helped game-play time.

And so many materials, thanks, Dan and Manuel and others sharing their mats.

We had in total eight* games made.
