Yes, Philly Game Forge is gone, but don’t count its annual toy drive out just yet: say hello to the Philly Dev Night Holiday Social V3.
On Friday, Dec. 16, at the Microsoft Reactor Philadelphia, the band of game designers is getting together for a night of geekiness and charity, as they set out to gather toys for the kids at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
