About OZ ORC
OZ ORC is a day of the finest in old-school D&D and OSR gaming. We've dug up TTRPGs from throughout the OSR scene, from weird-punk sci-fi post-apocalypse to classic D&D and original-edition Dungeons & Dragons. We've gathered together a dozen of Adelaide's most experienced and capable GMs to take you through worlds of exploration, treasure, and death.
No matter if you are the most grizzled grognard or you're entirely new to the hobby, we will have a game that will fill you with awe and terror.
Our next convention is planned for February 2027. Join the mailing list to hear first when the date and games are announced.
We've started OZ ORC as a chance to bring the old-school and its glories to everyone in Adelaide. Everyone is welcome to bring dice, snacks, and their wits with them and test themselves against the dangers of the deepest delves. Read our Code of Conduct to learn more about our commitment to creating a welcoming environment.

What is OSR?
OSR stands for "Old-School Renaissance" or "Old-School Revival". It's a style of tabletop RPG gaming inspired by classic D&D and early Dungeons & Dragons editions. OSR games emphasize exploration, player creativity, and challenge, featuring high stakes, meaningful choices, and a focus on problem-solving.

Tickets for our last event were $15 AUD per person. Registration opens closer to the event — join our Discord to be the first to know.
I'm new to tabletop RPGs. Can I still attend?
Absolutely! Our GMs are experienced at welcoming new players. You don't need to know the rules or bring a character - just bring yourself and a willingness to explore strange worlds.
Is there a minimum age to attend?
Attendees under 18 are welcome but must be accompanied by a parent or guardian throughout the event, as the venue is licensed.
What if I don't know anyone? Can I attend alone?
Absolutely! Many attendees come solo and make new friends through gaming. You'll be seated with other players who share your love of old-school gaming.
Can I run a game as a GM?
Yes! We welcome GMs of all experience levels and are currently recruiting GMs for our next event. Applications close November 30th, 2026 — check out the Game Submission page to submit your game proposal.
