Games

Here in the “Shark Tank” you will find that our games are limited to a max of 16+. We do not allow any games over the age of 18 to be played on site. We compete in the British Esports Association and try to support students by allowing them to play the games affiliated with the grass roots Esports organisation. Playing these games on a gaming PC is different than a games console. Instead of playing the game using the same software, we instead have to use different game launchers Each game listed, will have the launcher details next to it, please look out for that launcher on the desktops in order to access the games

Players take the role of either a Crewmate or Imposter in one of three sci-fi settings: a spaceship, sky base or planetary outpost.

Up to 10 players can join a game. They are assigned to one of the roles at random, without anyone else knowing. The objective for the Crewmates is to complete specific tasks and unmask the Imposters, of which there can be up to three per game Imposters need to sabotage or kill the Crewmates, without being spotted The tasks are easy to complete and mostly just involve pressing a few buttons – it’s a world away from the complexity of the average role playing game When someone suspects another player of being an Imposter, or discovers a dead body, they can call a meeting where all of the players (except for any who have been killed) can discuss who they think did the deed After a few seconds of debate, players vote – and if one player gets more votes than the others, they are ejected into space or hurled into a pool of lava. The game then continues until one side wins – but most bouts last no more than five minutes in total.
