MANGAKA: THE FAST AND FURIOUS GAMES OF DRAWING COMICS
Come to the Cartoon Art Museum for a free afternoon of comic-drawing fun with Mangaka: The Fast & Furious Game of Drawing Comics! Play a demo of this creative fast-paced card game, the first drawing game where players draw actual comics! Players draw stories combining wild Themes (chosen by cards) & an ever-growing number of fleeting Trends (also chosen by cards). Playtested at multiple anime and comic conventions, libraries and game stores, Mangaka has been refined over its four years of development into a challenging game that anyone can play, whether you think you can draw or not! So pick up a pencil and challenge your friends and your creativity in a battle against time!
Support the game on Kickstarter.
Time: 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.
Cost and Audience Free All ages
Location: Cartoon Art Museum 655 Mission Street San Francisco, CA 94105
