GAME OVER: Gaming + Snacks In-Person

Pixel animation of covered wagon with text that reads "You have died of dysentery."We're playing games and eating snacks in the Library, and you're invited! Join us in the Library across from the Makers Lab for some classic early video games, courtesy of the Internet Archive.

The Internet Archive is a digital library with a mission to provide “universal access to all knowledge.” Come learn how they preserve everything from software to websites, the work we do with them, and about UCSF’s own digital archives, part of the Archives and Special Collections at UCSF Library. Then see if you can make the top score lists on games like Castle of Dr. Brain, Life & Death 2, Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist, Oregon Trail, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and more! No quarters necessary. 

Snacks provided while supply lasts! Registration is appreciated.
