What we’re about
Seattle Board Games supports a vibrant and inclusive community of board game enthusiasts in the Seattle metro area. Our events and gatherings offer opportunities to have fun, make friends, and deepen our appreciation for the art, design, and strategy of board games. We seek to make games more accessible by removing barriers to enjoying and learning from them.
We host all types of boardgames, from lighter games such as Settlers of Catan and Lords of Waterdeep to heavier Euros like Brass Birmingham, Dune Imperium, and others. We also play thematic games such as Battlestar Galactica, social deduction games, Magic the Gathering, card games, and party games. If it's on BroadGameGeek's list of over 25,000 games (https://boardgamegeek.com/browse/boardgame?sort=rank), we might be playing it!
Anyone can become an event organizer and host events - either specific games or open gaming sessions. If you are interested, please contact the primary organizer.
We are member and organizer driven, and welcome suggestions for improvements and new directions.

See all- Concordia Salsa @ Cafe CosmosCafe Cosmos, Seattle, WA
In Concordia, a peaceful strategy game of economic development, you and your fellow players each control a mighty merchant dynasty in the Roman Empire. Establish outposts, produce goods, create new colonists, trade at the market, and recruit important agents to make sure your dynasty is the most influential at the end of the game!
Salsa adds salt, a wild resource, to the base game, as well as two new maps.
Beginners are welcome! The game is pretty easy to learn and is ranked as the #23 overall game on BGG. I will teach the game if needed. For more information about the game, use these resources:
