Calling all gamers, anime fans, and Japanese pop culture aficionados! The Strong National Museum of Play welcomes members of the Japanese indie game community—including creators from game company HANDSUM—for a discussion and question-and-answer about Japanese indie gaming community and culture. This is a unique opportunity to hear directly from Japanese creators about their work and influence on the video game industry.

 After the discussion, guests will have the chance to see an all-new display on Japanese indie gaming, part of the High Score exhibit in ESL Digital Worlds, and play MotionRec, created by the team from HANDSUM.

Included with general admission ($12.50 beginning at 2 p.m. on February 27)
