Details

Video games and tabletop games based in the Optimism Brewery.
Sometimes TTRPGs or story games.

What we'll bring:

  • A modest rotating board game library, courtesy of Daniel
  • An AV setup, including:
    ---- Projector + Screen + Audio
    ---- Nintendo Switch + 4 Pro Controllers + Multiplayer Library
    ---- Steam Link + 4 Steam Controllers
    ---- Wifi + LAN setup (limited/no internet)
    ---- HDMI hookups for other systems
    ---- Various cables and adapters
    ---- This list may expand over time, so check back!
  • If you have any specific requests for the rotating board/video game library, feel free to start a discussion or leave a comment

What you can bring:

  • Any board/tabletop games you'd like to play
  • Any TTRPGs you're willing to run ad-hoc
  • Other consoles/laptops to hook up to the projector
  • Outside food
  • Nothing at all, if you like

Where we'll be:

  • The back right corner by the stairs + grain
  • However, setup in Optimism is a bit ad-hoc, so we may have to relocate a bit
  • It should be easy to find us by the projector setup or the black + yellow bins
  • Signage is planned, but not yet implemented

Getting here:

Food:

  • Optimism only makes/serves beer, a single unlisted cider (locally produced), sparkling water, and regular water. No food.
  • There is a rotating food truck parked in the loading bay https://optimismbrewing.com/food-trucks/
  • There are plenty of food options nearby, and it is allowed inside. We will have a list of nearby food places available

A few notes:

  • Long boardgames will usually be started toward the start of the event
  • Many different video games are usually played throughout the night, cycling every 10-30 minutes unless we start something longer like Moonhunters
  • TTRPGs tend to be organized in advance, with the exception of occasional ad-hoc one-shots
  • Storygames tend to be run ad-hoc if there's enough interest at the time
