GAME CONCEPT
An awesome party where your actions and choices have impact.
On the eve of an apocalyptic solar event, citizens of Chicago gather to mingle, gamble, and negotiate for resources as they jockey for position in the face of a changing world.
Lights Out featured four competing teams and offered engagement for players at multiple levels of comfort and skill; roles included gambling at the Blackjack table, negotiating with other teams for favors, and mingling at the bar in order to spy on opposing players.
