Monday night board games

First timer? Read the FAQ below! Q: Is this event free? A: Overall, yes, until you get addicted and start buying games too! There is an expectation to at least buy a drink from the Cantina. They work hard to keep up with us and we want to support them as well. Buying food is better, but a drink would be expected. If you cannot afford a drink one week, try for another week. Q: Where is everyone? A: Gaming usually happens to the left of the main door on top of the platform. Sometimes, we get moved around a little bit and may be in the booths.

Most people who own the games are happy to teach them, and that is what happens most of the time. Also let the organizers know how long you'd like to play as some games are long (over 3 hours). Q: What kind of games do you play? A: Because we're constantly trying out new games, it's common that it's a first time for most of the players. An explanation of the rules is a standard part of the experience, so just come ready to learn and have fun. Our group tends to heavily play “Euros”. We will play other board game types, but be aware that older board…
