Cars: The Triangle Car Park is at the end of Clifton Road. In addition, there are 30-minute parking bays just up the road near Newtown Stores convenience shop, as well as 2-hour bays in each of the side roads off of Clifton Road (Clifton Street, Chute Street, Sandford Walk, etc). If you have an electric vehicle, there are charging points in Belmont Road (along the front of Belmont Park), on the left from the end of Clifton Road.

Bus: The nearest bus stop is Lower Summerlands at the junction of Clifton Road and Heavitree Road. The new Exeter Bus Station is only a few yards further away, by St. Sidwell’s Point Leisure Centre and the VUE Cinema (walk down past the VUE cinema, across Western Way, between the Leonardo Hotel – formerly Jury’s Inn – and Belmont Chapel to the Triangle Car Park and then turn left past The Clifton Inn).

FOOD & DRINK

Clifton Road Games do not provide or sell food and/or drinks on the premises, but customers are welcome to bring their own.

We generally advise that gamers take specific breaks for food and drinks, rather than snacking throughout. It’s safer for the games components.

Mindclash Games Demo Day

EMBERHEART

Rescue dragons, rally heroes, and lead your crew against poachers in this beautifully illustrated, quick-playing worker placement game.

Sunday, 9th November 2025
12:00 – 18:00

The Story

The mystical island of Emberheart is home to the last dragons.

They have been living in harmony with the villagers until poachers from the Distant Lands have begun capturing them. The Dragon Ambassador now seeks the King’s support. As one of the King’s champions, your mission is to join forces with the villagers, rescue and protect the dragons, and stand against the evil poachers.

Lead Your Hirelings with Strategy and Courage

Each turn, you’ll decide whether to take an Aide token for a special round bonus or send your hirelings across the island. The number you commit to a location determines both your priority in claiming rewards and your vulnerability to rivals. Grunts serve as flexible one-time helpers, while Scouts, Rangers, and Wardens specialize in specific zones. Your trained Dragon Companion can even accompany them, lending unique bonuses based on its abilities.

Rescue Dragons and Rally Heroes

Explore Emberheart’s diverse locations to recruit Heroes with distinctive powers and free captured Dragons from the poachers’ grasp. Safely returning rescued Dragons to their matching Preserves not only protects them but strengthens your influence. Each action pushes back against the poachers while building your legend as the King’s chosen Champion.

Manage the Flame and Claim Your Glory

Every bold strike risks exposure to the Poachers’ Raids, raising your standing on the perilous Flame track. Let it burn too high, and it may cost you dearly by game’s end. Balance your heroism with restraint — rescuing Dragons, training your Companion, and keeping your Flame low will all earn you Glory. After five rounds, the Champion with the most Glory becomes the next Dragon Ambassador.
