Looking for a low-pressure way to get offline, meet new people, and actually do something fun on a Tuesday? This is a relaxed pool night in Spandau—come for a few rounds, stay for the chats, and leave with a couple of new familiar faces. **What to expect** * Casual pool games in **rotating rounds** (so everyone gets to play) — **beginners are welcome** * A friendly vibe: meaningful conversations *and* a bit of playful pool-table silliness * We **start on time** — please arrive punctually, otherwise it’s hard to fit you into the rotation **Costs** * Your own drinks + shared table costs (depending on group size) **RSVP** Please RSVP on Meetup so I can estimate how many tables we’ll need.

**New to the game? Please join our beginner-friendly Sunday event instead!** Hi folks, this is a special meetup group for the regular Blood on the Clocktower games every Tuesday in Berlin Mitte. This event is aimed at players who are already very familiar with Clocktower - if you have dozens of games under your belt and are excited to play custom scripts with other seasoned players, this is the event for you! Our group aims to provide a fun and welcoming space to experience this thrilling game of social deception. **We focus on promoting a positive and fun group atmosphere, where players don’t take themselves or the game too seriously, whether they’re heroically winning or spectacularly losing.** Our players follow the code of conduct for the Berlin Board Gamers group and are expected to treat each other with respect and consideration – “killing with grace, and dying with dignity”. If you are marked as "going" in Meetup and are in your seat at 19:00, your place is guaranteed. All other seats are first come, first served. There is a €3 entrance fee per person to cover the cost of hiring the venue, payable in cash. We play in English so players should be able to understand and express themselves in English: an exception is possible for one pair of players willing to play together (as a “Revolutionary” pair) where one player can interpret into and out of English. Please let us know in advance if this is the case.
