About the Game

Session Length: 3 -
3 hours

The local toymaker has issued a plea for help! Desperate times called for desperate measures, and with orders piling up the toymaker felt he had no other option…but the enchantment the sorceress gave him worked amazingly. A single helper was chosen and transformed into a chaotic but efficient gnome who toiled and tinkered around the clock, working through the backlog at breakneck speeds. But the magic began to leak and infect others…and now it’s out of control.

The toymaker has offered handsome reward for assistance in this most dire of situations, along with assurance the curse only affects the elves in his shop. Someone needs to find and stop the original gnome, before it’s too late!

This is a 3 hour Learn-to-Play One Shot event at the Virginia Beach Tower of Games.
