What we’re about
**
Het Spellenmaakgilde is een initiatief om de krachten van spellenmakers en testers in Nederland te bundelen. Elke maand organiseren we speltestavonden op meerdere plekken! Deze evenementen kondigen we aan middels deze meetup group.
De meetups zijn een ontmoetingsplaats voor bordspelliefhebbers die nieuwsgierig zijn hoe een bordspel tot leven komt en bordspelontwerpers die uit eerste hand feedback op hun spel zoeken. De sfeer is informeel, gezellig en relaxed. Meld je aan als je het leuk vindt om prototypes van bord- en kaartspellen uit te proberen en feedback te geven. We zijn ook actief op Discord en je bent ook welkom om daar mee te doen.
Meer info over het gilde is te vinden op https://spellenmaakgilde.nl/

The Dutch Game Design Guild (Spellenmaakgilde) is an initiative to bundle the forces of game designers and testers in the Netherlands. One of the main activities is to organize tabletop game testing events. These events are advertised in this meetup.
We are looking for people who enjoy to test board- and card game prototypes and give feedback about them. It should be a meeting place for boardgame enthusiasts, people who are curious how a boardgame comes to life and boardgame designers who want first hand feedback on their game. We also are active on Discord and you are welcome to join

- Rotterdam Tabletop Testing NightJeroen's Place, Capelle aan den IJssel
Looking for people to test your game, or interested in playing people's creations? Come over to play boardgame prototypes! Your host for this evening is Jeroen Geenen.
We start at 19.00 hours, play until around 23.00 hours. We start with a pitching round by the game designers about the games that can be played. We aim to have all games playtested, while players can choose what to play. Usually we rotate after a play round (or more, or not depending on the playtime, small games vs an epic night long game).
I will supply coffee/tea/water. You are welcome to bring any other drinks, food or snacks.
To check for actual updates and to sign up as a designer please go to our Guild website and find the event post of that month. We also share more events and news there: spellenmaakgilde.nl
PS: we are aiming to organize this event once a month, on the first Friday of the month
