On the Saturday event at ConnCon 2011, there will be special sessions running for the 10-16 year old set. Beyond CandyLand has been focusing on younger gamers, this session will have teachers running games that the older kids will enjoy playing. Perhaps while you and your younger one are playing with us! Games for these sessions are as follows:
8 AM until Noon will be Lisa Sutherland teaching Pyramid, a fun game about the Curse of the Mummy. Better for the younger tween.
1 PM until 5 PM will have Eric Summerer teaching Nuns on the Run, which would probably be enjoyed by a mix of ages.
7 PM until 11 PM will showcase Lisa Cho leading Bisikle, a zany dexterity racing game, good for all ages.
Also, your teen can check out any game from the extensive library of 200+ games. While teachers may not always be available, the librarian may be able to answer some basic questions and get you on the right path.
The daily pass for this event is $25.
