Join other adult boardgamers (ages 18 and up) in the Winston-Salem area to play a new breed of board games! Instead of frantically clicking a mouse, why not roll some dice, place a tile, or draw a card - and enjoy some face-to-face interaction! It isn't about whether you win or lose (at least not entirely). It's about having a great evening, trying to win some of the time, and always playing better the next time!

The types of games we play are a refreshing change of pace from regular mass-market boardgames (we don't play Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble, Risk, party games, etc). We might play a Eurogame (Agricola, Tigris and Euphrates, Settlers of Catan, Puerto Rico, Stone Age, etc) or we might decide to be really adventurous and start a longer dice-rolling boardgame that is more akin to an RPG (Arkham Horror, Runebound, or A Touch of Evil anyone?) If you haven't heard of any of these games, don't worry! We have competent instructors who will have you playing in no time. And just for clarity, we don't play miniatures games, role-playing games, or CCG's.

The group is currently meeting on alternating Thursdays but we will also play one Saturday each month to take on some of the longer games... or just to play anything, really...

Want to attend?

Please join us for our next gaming event! This location has a large area for gaming that I have reserved from 6:30pm until 10:30pm. They are not charging us any fee to use the room, but they ask that we not bring any outside food or drinks. Of course they would love it if we bought some grub from them, but it's not required. And don't forget, there is a large parking lot at the corner of Fourth and Spruce that you're free to use Read more
