Making Your First Jubensha

Session

Tues

Workshop

Ever wanted to step into a story where you hold the clues, secrets, and maybe even the motive? Jubensha, China’s hit blend of murder mystery, improv, and roleplay, is all about players becoming the characters in a thrilling whodunnit. In this workshop, you’ll learn the basics of creating your own Jubensha: from cooking up juicy backstories to planting sneaky twists that keep everyone on their toes. No experience needed, just bring your imagination and a taste for drama. By the end, you’ll have the tools (and maybe the alibi) to launch your very first Jubensha adventure!

Workshops have limited availability and must be booked in advanced. Booking will be made available on the event app ahead of the Summit dates.
