Play for the Planet: Play Catastrophic! Play for the Planet monthly session

Event details

Join us for our next Play for the Planet monthly session to explore Catastrophic, a joyful card game designed at York to help players understand how the small things in life can affect large scale processes around the world. Come and cultivate the most robust community of plants and animals you can, interact with other communities, and adapt to survive the events the planet and your opponents throw at you.

Everyone is welcome!

About Play for the Planet

The Play for the Planet Network is a collaborative initiative based at the University of York, bringing together game designers, researchers, and educators who are passionate about addressing planetary crises through the power of play. Our mission is to explore a diverse range of playful materials—such as digital games, interactive narratives, simulations, and more—as tools for modelling, stimulating discussion, fostering learning, and building connections.
