The premiere online platform for finding open tabletop role-playing games (TTRPG) with professional Game Masters (GM), StartPlaying, has teamed up with Paizo, publisher of the award-winning TTRPG title Pathfinder, to make it easy for new and longtime players to find Pathfinder groups. They will have seasoned GMs hosting everything from campaigns to one-shots. Whether you want to learn to play or delve into the Abomination Vaults, you’re sure to find something exciting during Pathfinder Play Weekend. 

Pathfinder Play Weekend will be a monthly event taking place on the last weekend of every month, Thursday to Sunday. The first event will be this month, starting March 23rd and going until the 26th. You can find open games here. Note that while you can find some games for free, it is not a guarantee, even during the Pathfinder Play Weekend events.

Pathfinder Play Weekends will help meet this demand by matching eager new players and veteran fans with games for all skill levels. Pathfinder 2E offers a variety of gameplay styles and tones, from silly flower garden one-shots to deadly dungeon crawls to freeform kingdom-building sims. 

"We're always excited to make it easy for people to find and play games," said Devon, StartPlaying co-founder. "We know the best way to make the hobby grow is to remove barriers to entry, and professional Game Masters are incredibly invested in providing an amazing experience to players and making them feel welcomed.”
