Come along to UCGG's annual horror game playthrough with The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes!

At the close of the Iraq War, Special Forces hunting for weapons of mass destruction unearth something far deadlier - a buried Sumerian temple containing a nest of unearthly creatures. To survive the night below, they must forge a brotherhood with their enemies from the world above.

Join us on Saturday 26th October at Haere-Roa's Room of Requirement for a night filled with thrills and terrors with Movie Night Mode! This mode lets viewers take turns controlling the narrative and taking on the roles of the characters on the screen, deciding their fate in your hands!

Do you have what it takes to survive the night?

Term Two can get busy and stressful (trust me, we know), so to help with that, we're holding our Bar Night!!
Join us on Friday May 10th (end of next week/week 3), from 6pm till late, to enjoy some consoles, company, and a drink or two at the end of a long day and week!
