Practical Information

Important Locations

Concord Olympus is a pervasive game that primarily takes place in the Gowanus and Park Slope neighborhoods in Brooklyn, New York, USA. All gameplay will occur within a single square mile, with most locations being a 10 minute walk or less from others.

Our central play location, Gemini & Scorpio Loft is located at 267 Douglass St, Brooklyn, NY 11217, on the third floor of the building, and will be open to players from 12pm - 12am on Friday and Saturday. Most major story beats will occur at G&S Loft, but there are several other locations throughout Gowanus and Park Slope, where we plan to have optional encounters. The majority of these locations are accessible and disability friendly, but a few may require a single step up or take place outside. We have made an effort to highlight the specifics on the map below.

Players may also use this map to choose locations for meet ups, meals and planned encounters. If a location is listed on the map, it is considered within the bounds of the game’s world, which means you may be able to find other players or NPCs while there.

Getting There

The Atlantic Ave/Barclays Center subway station is 25 minute ride from Penn Station, and the most effective way to travel into the neighborhood. For those who prefer to drive, there are a number of pay lots within the area, and we recommend IPark located at 255 Schermerhorn St. Brooklyn, NY 11217, which has an overnight fee of $34.

Our central play location, Gemini & Scorpio Loft, is located on the 3rd floor of 267 Douglass St. To access the loft, players will need to use the intercom at the front door to be buzzed into the building. They will then be able to take the freight elevator to the 3rd floor.

Hotels in the Area

We have negotiated reduced-rate hotel rooms at Sonder the Industrialist, which is a seven minute walk from G&S Loft. There are also a number of other hotels in the area, many with reasonable (for New York) prices.

The Holiday Inn Brooklyn Downtown at 300 Schermerhorn St, is very reasonably priced, and has a large, quiet lobby to gather in. We also recommend Even Hotel Brooklyn at 46 Nevins St, and Fairfield Inn & Suites New York Brooklyn at 181 3rd Ave.

Covid Policy (As of 6/29/24)

First and foremost, this policy is dynamic, and may potentially change based on current events closer to the date of the game. Please understand that we, as game staff, are not capable of predicting how the virus will impact society, and can only make policy decisions based on present data.

Our current policy is that attendees are encouraged to wear masks, but it will not be mandated. We also encourage players and staff to test prior to the game, and to please stay home if they have a positive result. If a player or staff member begins exhibiting symptoms during the game, they should test and isolate. We will have extra masks and covid tests available during the game at no additional cost to players. Again, this policy may change as we get closer to the game, and will be deeply influenced by our game site’s policies and decisions.
