Last year saw the launch of igfest programmed by iglab and studio resident Simon games.

The hugely successful Interesting Games Festival 2008 took place in Bristol from 19th-21st September 2008 as part of the Bristol Community Festival and brought together people from a variety of countries, in a variety of places around Bristol, with one common goal; having fun!

We did so much in just one sunny weekend that we couldn't possibly get the footage down to one minute so here is igfest in 90 seconds, courtesy of Simon games:

What did we do at igfest? We ran through the night in our hundreds. We played on city streets, on boats, in parks, in car parks. We sewed down race tracks and cried out like Cuckoos and Wolves. We blasted each other with colour and plucked each other like harps. We ruled the lazer universe and sought lovers and dancers in the crowds. We had new fun with old friends and made new friends with some simple fun. We were all ages races and backgrounds and we were all peers.
