25.01.2022 Ive carried dice in a lot of things, boxes, pencil cases, sometimes even the container they came in, but a bag made specifically for dice? Amazing! Introducing PakEX Sponsor - Dice Bags by Mire

25.01.2022 Some of our demos are finishing up but that doesnt mean the day is over! Come down and borrow a game from our game library and grab a table. We can show you how to play, or bring your own games and teach a friend!

24.01.2022 Hey all! We are thinking of creating some Pak Ex Game Days, an opportunity for people to come together and play some awesome games and RPGs. Keep an eye out here for more info, but for now, we need to know: does Saturday or Sunday work best for you for a regular (every few weeks) gaming day?

22.01.2022 Its an exciting time here at PakEX Central! The isolation rules are slowly rolling back; weve poked our heads out of our isolation bunkers and theres now a flurry of activity behind the scenes. What madness are we planning? Stay tuned to find out!

20.01.2022 PakEX is Tomorrow! As a quick Reminder: If you are not well, please stay at home. If you have been in contact with someone who has just been overseas, or with someone with a member of their household who has just been overseas, please stay at home.

15.01.2022 Dressing up for PakEX? We have a quick Cosplay FAQ: As a general rule, if you think something is a bit too risqu, it probably is. Please remember that PakEX is aimed at bringing more people into tabletop gaming (this means there will be young kids).

14.01.2022 Most games are hard for young kids. PakEX is proud to be partnering with Gateway Adventure Games - making gaming accessible to kids of all abilities!

13.01.2022 Just a reminder: PakEX is still on tomorrow! PakEX is a small event and very, very under the attendance threshold set by the government. We do not expect to have the volumes of people the department of health is worried about come through - the venue does not even have that kind of capacity. Again, please stay home if:... If you are unwell (this is just normal, sharing a stomach bug is never caring). If youve been overseas in the last 14 days If youve been in contact with someone in the last 14 days whove just been overseas See more

06.01.2022 You can only play trivial pursuit so many times until you know all the answers, and if you role your dice too often you use up all the good results (this is a proven, mathematical fact).
