Dystopias seem to dominate representations of future in videogames. Whether post-apocalyptic or cyberpunk, they provide a perfect backdrop for individualistic fantasies of destruction and survival. As the real world catches up with the most pessimistic predictions, we want to highlight games that prefigure better futures. Join us for a night of eco utopias, afro-futurist visions, cyberqueer adventures, joyful insurrections, and fully automated communisms.
