#UKGE2019 MASSIVE Charity Game Of Happy Salmon
At the end of Saturday, Ben went to Hall 3 to check out something pretty special: a 200 person strong game of Happy Salmon.
The lovely organiser of UK Games Expo have set up a massive game of Happy Salmon for a little girl called Saren who has attended the convention for the last two years and loved playing Happy Salmon with her family. Unfortunately Saren has cancer and so couldn’t make it to the convention. The organisers set up this massive game to raise money for charity.
