Comic-Con’s Game Of Thrones Experience Isn’t Nearly As Exciting (Or Traumatising) As Westeros Should Be

Game of Thrones may already be back for the seventh season, but that hasn’t stopped HBO from trying to get fans pumped for the winter to come. The hit show has its own immersive experience display at San Diego Comic-Con, and we were there to check it out.

The Game of Thrones Experience takes fans on a journey through the Seven Kingdoms, including Winterfell, Dragonstone, King’s Landing and North of the Wall. Unfortunately, that mostly means standing, posing, and looking at all the stuff you’d pretty much expect to see there. There are thrones to sit in and a few mini-games to check out.
