The n Games, an innovative tournament of invented games
Saturday 6 April 2024, 11am to 4pm
Robson Square Rink, Vancouver

Creativity is the name of the game with the n Games– the ultimate playful event created for adults!

The n Games is an innovative tournament of invented urban games in which diverse teams attempt to “solve for n, the unknown quantity”. Groups from all over the Lower Mainland are invited to be one of the six teams to participate. We expect entries from teams of diverse backgrounds, ages and skill-sets to tackle this set of unique games invented by Simon Fraser University School for the Contemporary Arts students, Assistant Professor James Long, and artist Germaine Koh.

The n Games value play as a form of creative problem-solving, prompting teams to take unconventional approaches to challenges involving both mind and body. This event is a new urban-space edition of the n Games (which were first presented by Koh in 2013). These games are sponsored by Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association.
