Special Features:
Dinner Theatre (Check out the game, now available below)
We'll have a group dinner at the event site, organized the the JiffyCon Food Committee. Over dinner all are welcome to play a special live version of the game Varulvarna från Mjölnardalen (a version of Werewolves of Miller's Hollow). Potluck offerings are welcome.

The game:
Varulvarna från Mjö lnardalen (Werewolves of Miller's Hollow)
The year is approximately 1100, Sweden, and the villagers of Mjö lnardalen spend the evening in the mead hall, carousing and dancing. When they turn in for the night, some of the villagers transform into nightmarish "varulvar" or werewolves, and one by one, kill the villagers. Can the townsfolk hunt and hang those who are not what they seem before it's too late?


For more information about the dinner, contact evan.torner at gm@il.
