Community Camp Cleanup
We’re hosting a Community Camp Cleanup before our May 10-12th event and you’re all invited to join us. It’s time for us to give back to the campsite better known to us as Requiem. Join us several days early to help clean up the camp and hang out as regular humans. Read on for things you need to know!
I DREAM IN RED: Requiem Dark and You
Here at Dystopia Rising New York we make a big to do about something we call "Requiem Dark." It's kind of a thing that happens to span the breadth of meme to mechanic and everything in between. For those of you we've been lucky enough to share our experience with, you're probably familiar with an oft covered topic at the start of our games but for those of you who have yet to visit allow me to recap.
Videos, Tiktok, and a bit about Photos!
Photos have always been one of my favorite parts of Dystopia Rising, and now we’ve added video to really show off how amazing the game can be in New York. After a few test runs, I believe I’ve found the best way to create content that includes each of you!
Once a Month and In Between - Getting Involved in the Community
“Have you ever been alone in a crowded room?” If you’ve listened to Dark Blue by Jack’s Mannequin this line probably plays in your head on occasion. Over nearly a decade of participating at Dystopia Rising events, it’s something I still find myself feeling from time to time, and I’m sure many of you can relate at one point or another. Sometimes we just need to be reminded of the simple things. So what do you do when everything is dark blue?
Get Ready For Honor's Fall

Four Things Players Can Do To Help the Staff
At Dystopia Rising New York, we have an amazing player base who’s always asking us “How can we help out?” Unfortunately, at events we’re often so busy we don’t have a good answer other than “Um, pick that thing up and put it down over there.” So between events, we came up with five things our players can do if they want to help out the staff.
War Games - The OODA Loop
Larp is about making meaningful decisions: your character is presented with a challenge and you have to decide how to act. During a war game like our June Premiere event, Dogs of War, you’ll be given the chance to make choices that will decide the Battle of Requiem.
The Bunk Problem
There’s a disconnect between the problems that larpers talk about and the problems that they really care about. Some concerns are pretty clear and constant: people want a safe game with supportive players, for example. Other worries are more insidious. One in particular rarely gets talked about… it’s one of the biggest problems our players worry about before the weekend, but rarely gets a second thought afterwards. We’re talking about the bunk problem… and our unique solution to it.
