Any #ukgamesexpo #ukge2026 visitors that can provide some help? I remember seeing an awesome gelatinous cube collared shirt for sale on one stall, but I can't for the life of me remember who it was selling them. Any ideas?

A little after 9am on Thursday, I boarded my first train of a journey that has become increasingly familiar over the years. It was my sixth visit to the convention, having first attended in 2019 before COVID forced a break, but I returned in 2022. It was also my fourth time making the journey by train. The first leg carried me from the South Coast to London Victoria, followed by a tube trip to London Euston and a welcome lunch break before the faster train north. By around 4pm, I was walking through the NEC halls once again, ready for another weekend at @ukgamesexpo 2026.

On my way home from @UKGamesExpo I stopped off to see the student final project showcase at #ISARTDigital in #Paris
At the beginning of the year, 150 students pitched their project ideas and a dozen of them were chosen to be developed into a playable demo. Kinetic Twinz was developed by a multidisciplinary team of 17 students.

Last weekend I ran Unfallen - a narrative Warcry event, at #UKGE
10 players were asked to choose their path through the blighted wilds of Thyria: as either Contaminators seeding creeping corruption, or Remediators sworn to burn out the rot and restore balance.

Just got back from @ukgamesexpo tired but happy. You would think that such a large convention would be a bit impersonal but I found the opposite to be the case. Now on my third time attending, I have gotten to know quite a few people who I was happy to see again. Everyone was friendly, enthusiastic and encouraging — almost enough to restore your faith in humanity.

UK Games Expo 2026 is over. It was wonderful to see so many of you, and apologies to anyone I didn't get a chance to pop by and say hello to.

Review copies (tl-br): Risk it for a Biscuit from Dissent Games, Go Big from Sinister Fish Games, Take Cat from Gibson, Korpi from Hiirosoft, Borealis from Lucky Duck Games
Bought games (tl-br): 1987 Channel Tunnel from Looping Games, Meow Tiles from Oink Games, Playte Poker Chips, Jerusalem from Matt Green and Tony Boydell, Bus & Stop from Saashi & Saashi, Escape the Rat Race from Treesap Games, Big Shot from Playte, Let's Make a Bus Route: The Dice Game from Saashi & Saashi, Ada's Library from Playte and North American Railways from Playte

Couldn't be at UK Games Expo, but indulging in some comfort buying, with card game Hanamikoji. Especially now that I've found there's a good unofficial solo variant for it. And wow, what stunning artwork the cards have. Wanted to get this one for ages, even before it could be played solo easily. #Japan #UKGamesExpo #Games #TableTopGames #BoardGames #CardGames #Geisha #Art
