Danke für diesen umfassenden Rückblick auf unser Festival!
Die Pandemie hat einige Lektionen für uns bereitgehalten. So auch für die Gaming-Branche. Mit diesen Entwicklungen beschäftigte sich die diesjährige Ausgabe des PLAY21-Creative Gaming Festivals (05. bis 13. November) unter dem Motto ‚Restart Together‘. Das bunte Programm überzeugte mit einzigartigen Games, spannenden Gesprächs- und Diskussionsrunden sowie der jährliche Verleihung der Creative Gaming Awards.
Welche Events uns am meisten begeistert haben und welche Impulse wir aus der Veranstaltung mitnehmen konnten, könnt ihr hier nachlesen: ➡https://t1p.de/PLAY21-CreativeGamingFestival
It's time to join us in our virtual festival playground in TOPIA to celebrate the start of this year's PLAY festival.

PLAY festival director Christiane Schwinge (@christiane_schwinge) and Andreas Hedrich (@andreashedrich) will give insights into the festival program, accompanied by live broadcasts to PLAY people worldwide.
This will be followed by the vernissage of the PLAY exhibition in PLAYvalley, the virtual festival location, guided by curator Matthias Löwe (@sp4c31nv4d3r).

„Restart Together!“ is the motto of this year's PLAY - Creative Gaming Festival, which will take place from November 5–13, 2021: online and on site in Hamburg.
This year‘s edition focuses on the past and the future, on isolation and communalization, on closeness and distance. PLAY21 deals with the role of games in the (post-)pandemic society and with the questions of how games bring us together in a global crisis situation, give hope, become alternative places of encounter, and how game culture will change after and through Corona.
In workshops, exhibitions, shows, roundtables and talks, this year‘s program includes a whole nine days of participating, discussing, programming, discovering and playing. The audience can decide how to visit the festival: via stream, via the virtual festival location or physically live on site.
