Daggerheart’s Turning One! Join Us for Daggerheart Birthday of Play!
The Heart of the Adventure: Daggerheart Day at Level Up Games!
The dice are rolling, the tension is rising, and the world of Daggerheart is officially turning one!
As witnessed on Critical Role with the legendary Matt Mercer and the team at Darrington Press, Daggerheart has redefined narrative-driven TTRPGs. To celebrate its first anniversary, Level Up Games is thrilled to host an official Daggerheart Birthday of Play on Saturday, May 25th, at our flagship Buford location!
A Legendary Weekend in Georgia
This isn’t just any game day. We know the “Critter” community is descending upon Georgia for the massive Critical Role Live Show at Gas South Arena on Sunday, May 26.
Our Buford store, located in the Village at the Mall of Georgia, is just a quick drive up the road from the arena. Being an official Darrington Press Guild Store, we are the perfect destination to gear up and get a game in before the cast takes the stage. Think of it as the ultimate pre-show party!
What’s Happening on Daggerheart Day?
Whether you’re a seasoned GM or a total newcomer, we have something for you:
Learn to Play Demos: Curious about the “Hope and Fear” mechanic? We’re running short demos focusing on the brand-new Class Packs and how they make character generation super simple. You’ll go from a blank sheet to a ready-to-play hero in minutes!
The Adventure Tables: We’re running two specific adventures throughout the day:
“The Wish Thief”: The brand-new Birthday of Play Tier 1 adventure.
The Original Favorite: We’re bringing back the classic Sablewood Messengers adventure that started it all for those who missed out or just want to play it again!
Shop the Vault: As a Guild Store, we have all things Daggerheart such as Core Rulebooks, Class Packs, and plenty of Critical Role items to help you represent your favorite campaign at the live show.
💡 Pro-Tips: Know Before You Go
To help you plan your perfect Saturday, here is the Level Up Games’ guide to visiting our Buford flagship:
The Best Parking: Our store is located in The Village (the outdoor section of the mall). For the easiest access, park in the lots between Dick’s Sporting Goods and Barnes & Noble. We are situated right in that central plaza area!
Fuel Up: You don’t have to wander far to stay in the game. The Village is packed with food options in the food court just steps from our door.
Early Arrival: Since this is a high-traffic weekend for Critters, we recommend arriving a few minutes before your scheduled game time to browse the new merch and get settled.
Don’t Miss the Drop!
Space for our adventure sessions is strictly limited. To ensure every player gets the best experience possible, we require sign-ups for our play tables.
