What we’re about
We drink beer, mingle, and play all kinds of indie/modern board games. New and experienced gamers always welcome. We are sure to go over rules at the start of each game. If you are new, we recommend arriving by 6:00 pm to get acquainted and get a "lay of the land" before choosing which game to join. Over time, you'll get an idea of the types of games and lengths they can be. As of now, we have game nights on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (announced one week out) from about 6:00 to 10:00 pm. Our Facebook page will have additional one-off events and updates so I recommend checking it out - https://www.facebook.com/groups/fortcollinsboardgamesandbrews. Our members don't RSVP very often, so don't shy away. We easily have at least 10-15 people each game night!

See all- Heavy Board Games at EmporiumThe Emporium Sports Bar, Fort Collins, CO
Join us for a night of heavier board games at Emporium!
Tuesdays focus specifically on longer, more complex games (assume you'll get to play one 3-4 hour long game, rather than a few medium-length games). Due to game length, please make sure to arrive *by* 6pm, or you may miss out being able to play.
What counts as a 'heavy' game is ambiguous but games like Scythe, Terraforming Mars, Age of Steam, Tzolk'in, Feast for Odin, Power Grid, and similar games have been brought regularly. Because our games run on the longer side, we do recommend arriving by 6pm to make sure you can join in a game.
We encourage attendees who plan to bring games to say what you are going to bring. This will help give people an idea of what will be on the table when they get there!
Emporium has a full bar and good food options.
Fort Collins Board Games and Brews also has a Facebook page where events are posted, so typically we have quite a few more people than the Meetup RSVPs show. Feel free to join us on our Facebook group here!
