Welcome to the Playground

An exhibition and showcase of games made by the 2026 MA Games and Playful Design cohort at Goldsmiths. Come, play, enjoy!

Welcome to the Playground is the end-of-year showcase for the MA Games and Playful Design cohort at Goldsmiths, University of London. Come and experience a range of original games and playful design projects created by the graduating class of 2026.

Whether you're a gamer, a designer, or just curious, there's something here for everyone.

Expect roguelikes, deck builders and stealth shooters alongside visual novels, branching stories and 3D exploration games — plus a party game for the whole room, and one work played entirely on a crochet-powered controller. Play the games and meet their makers.
