Az Elsők Kora – The Age of the First Ones

The Age of the First Ones is a Hungarian-developed strategic card game in which different factions, unique characters, and interconnected abilities clash with one another.

We are continuously developing the game’s world, rule system, and characters based on our own ideas.

At MondoCon, visitors can get a closer look at the game, explore the cards, and gain insight into the world of The Age of the First Ones.

We at Outer Rim Shadows have combined these two passions.

With our screen-accurate costumes and an exhibition featuring hundreds of Hasbro Black Series figures, we bring the Star Wars universe within arm’s reach.

Among the highlights on display will be iconic classic vehicles such as TIE Fighters, the AT-AT, the AT-ST Walker, and the Millennium Falcon.

Karuta

What is karuta? Come discover and try one of Japan’s traditional games, a true peak of reflex and memory games! It is an art intertwined with haiku, based on a collection of one hundred poems.

Our club has now been active for ten years and warmly welcomes anyone interested. Even far from Japan, we actively practice this art twice a week, training both body and mind. I can personally confirm that the game is just as exhausting as it looks—but just as exciting as well.

Don’t worry, no knowledge of Japanese is required to play. All you need to do is enjoy the game—we’ll help you through any complications.

Both the game and the club are free, so if you like it, you are welcome to join our training sessions anytime!

Star Trek club – Kóbor trekkerek

The Kóbor Trekkers will appear as usual, with a few new additions. A thematic Star Trek exhibition, tribble- and weapon-petting, Star Trek face and body painting, and a Borg regeneration chamber photo wall. The popular Parent Preservation area will also return. The well-known Borg dodgeball will take place in the ConArena.

And of course, there will be conversations about Star Trek and sci-fi. 🚀

VTES

The time has come for Vampire: The Eternal Struggle (VTES) to step out of the shadows and reveal itself to you!

VTES was designed in 1994 by Richard Garfield, and it was the third collectible card game ever created, following Magic: The Gathering and Spellfire.
On the fall con, we’ll be there to present this cult classic card game that has been running for over 30 years, where ancient vampire clans clash for power in the Dark Night.

Come and meet our Community, try the game, and immerse yourself in the world of the World of Darkness!
Join us and step into the shadows of the Masquerade, and let the struggle for dominion over the eternal night begin!

Shogi Budapest

Shogi is a board-based strategy game similar to chess. In Japan, there are 10 million active players, and the game is spreading to more and more places around the world. What makes it unique is that the pieces are never permanently eliminated from the game — right up until the last moment, there is an intense battle to capture the opponent’s king.
Shogi was introduced to Hungary two decades ago, with the first club established in Debrecen, followed later by another in Budapest. By now, the player base has grown large enough for a national championship to be held annually
