This jam is now over. It ran from 2016-09-16 19:00:00 to 2016-09-22 19:35:00. View 21 entries

The ROM Game Jam invites creative, motivated, and inspired video game developers to work in a collaborative environment over the course of a weekend to create digital games at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto. The ROM Game Jam is unique in offering a theme inspired by our collections and research, and providing content experts who can be resources for the developers.

Completed games live on long after the Game Jam weekend ends. Showcase opportunities feature selected games throughout the year during ROM public programs, school visits, and on the online ROM Arcade.
