![]() I have been guilty of thinking of gaming in a wholly negative light. I have always said to my children that they won’t grow up and look back with nostalgia on the weekend they spent on a gaming console.

Trickster Game 001 takes RPG fantasy games like Fable and turns them into an incredible adventure in one of Dunedin’s best outdoor spaces. ![]() The idea, the setting, the delivery – this is one of the best things I have ever done. We gather and the rules are explained: follow the map, find the guardians, undertake their mission, and collect the talismans to save the forest and finish the game. The air is abuzz with anticipation – we are all looking forward to the adventure ahead. There are families and groups of students, grandparents and young children. “Yes, but we are only a team of two,” I reply. A red-hooded figure approaches us “Are you here for the next game?” he says.

My daughter and I head to the Upper Gardens on Opoho Road just before 1pm. This weekend is different and, boy, I am so happy about it. My favourite weekends are usually the ones when you don’t do a lot except pyjama days and washing the perfect end to a busy week. After a long week at work, nothing feels better than to relax, tidy the house, and spend some time with friends and family.
