Did you know that you can play the latest video games, right in your library? In celebration of International Games Week 2017, NCSU Libraries invites you to “Raiders of the Lost Arcade” — an informal, drop-in gaming session for gamers of all levels and interests.

In this session, we will explore video games as a way to encourage experiential learning, empathy building and consider narratives from an inclusive perspective. We will be playing a curated selection of Playstation and Steam games that explore different forms of survival, including The Last of Us, Dream Daddy, Portal 2 and This War of Mine.

Critical discussion is encouraged, along with participation from those who are new to exploring video games. We also welcome those who just want to blow off some steam and have fun gaming.

Pizza will be provided.
