For the 3rd consecutive year, the NUS Students’ Computing Club will be hosting the Cyber Gaming Festival, on the 27th and 28th of June 2009, at Game Haven @ SAFRA. Rather than focusing on traditional gamers, the festival will take on a different approach this year; by expanding the festival to include activities and games for casual and non-gamers. The theme for this year’s festival, “Seriously fun”, promises to uncover the fun and joy in cyber-gaming, where competitions are not just about winning, but also the fostering of new partnerships and developing strong interests in the gaming field.
This event is part of SHINE youth festival supported by the National Youth Council and the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports.
