Below you will find Staff Picks and Most Anticipated, and picks from patrons and friends of the site. All linked for your convenience.
This week: Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver, LA, and Virtual Reality all have picks.
PHILADELPHIA
Guest Most Anticipated: PAX Unplugged
PAX’s annual board game convention is coming back to Philadelphia from Friday 12/6 — Sunday 12/8. The year’s festivities include multiple LARP and tabletop tracks along with a combination megagame / escape room called The Helios Conspiracy, so it’s bound to be an interesting year. — Michael Andersen, ARGN.com
CHICAGO
Staff Pick of the Week: Grace and the Hanukkah Miracle
With commercialization expanding the holiday season over several months, the meaningful and heartwarming aspects of the holidays seem all but forgotten. But that’s not the case in Chicago Immersive’s debut show, a delightful time-traveling adventure that the whole family can partake in to help spread some holiday cheer. — Patrick McLean

Staff Pick of the Week: The Ode at Pint’s End
Even when on land, Irish sailors can’t help but hear the call of the sea and the haunting secrets it holds over them. Birch House’s latest show promises magic, dancing, and tall tales that always leave me thinking deeply about their meaning long after leaving their engaging immersive experiences. — Patrick McLean
DENVER
Staff Pick of the Week: Camp Christmas
The perfect holiday mashup, Camp Christmas presents time-honored traditions across eras and cultures in a nonlinear exhibition. Conceived with a maximalist approach to decorating the 10,000 square foot installation, even Grinches like me will find a pleasing amount of kitsch in lieu of traditionally decorated trees, stories and lighting displays. — Danielle Look
LOS ANGELES
Staff Most Anticipated: Crimson Cabaret
Maybe it’s the cast. Maybe it’s the director (who is on the podcast this week). Maybe it’s the Bond trailer that is putting me in the mood for some classic spy shenanigans. This week I’m looking forward to the latest from The Unmarked Door and hoping to have my thirst for adventure quenched. — Noah Nelson
VIRTUAL REALITY
Staff Pick of the Week: The Climb
The Climb is a breathtaking glimpse at Rock climbing realism all from the comfort of your living room. CryEngine shines as each ascent is more beautiful than the last, but don’t look down! — Will Cherry
