Join us for some chill online games on Ludio! We run the best game nights ever :D Ludio (https://ludio.gg) is a videoconferencing platform with games built directly into it.

We play all sorts of card games, word games, drawing games, bluffing games, trivia games, party games, and more - all of them are easy to learn, quick to play, and very social. We have a team of experienced hosts who will teach you all the games - and keep the event fun and safe!

There is no need to learn any of the games we play beforehand, but if you're curious, you can find the full list of games and tutorials on https://try.ludio.gg. In the past we've played a lot of Pitfall, Piranha, Fishbowl, and Caption Contraption.
