About us
Get Gaming Online: Obsidian is for players who want to dive into complex (often smaller), longer or harder-to-learn games.
Sessions are over Zoom and we'll be playing things like Wingspan, Carcassone, Isle of Cats, Blood Rage, Castles of Burgundy, Settlers of Catan and more. You'll be expected to have a good understanding of the rules already or attend a designated 'learn to play session' first.
Applications for Obsidian are required and every membership request will be reviewed and approved by the GGO Admin Team. We're looking for gamers who will be excellent to each other (insert air guitar), know the rules and attend every RSVP.
Even though we're playing different games, being friendly and welcoming is still of paramount importance! We'll always adhere to our GGO Code of Conduct and you may be removed if you ghost an event, violate the CoC or aren't prepared. (We may also need to introduce an event fee if no-shows are an issue.)
So, if you wanna play more complex games online with other fabulous tabletop nerds, apply for Obsidian today!
And, if you want a more casual experience where you can learn games on the day, why not try our main group, Get Gaming Online? It’s a great place to relax, play some party games and meet new people.

The host will be there to assist, but we do expect all players to have a basic understanding of the gameplay and rules.Obession is a 1–4 player Victorian-themed strategy game (60–90 min) where players rebuild a disgraced British country estate's reputation through tile placement, deck building, and worker management. Players host, recruit staff, and curate guest lists to gain wealth and influence, competing to win a high-society courtship.
We will be playing on BGA, so please set up a free account before the session if you don't already have one. https://boardgamearena.com/
The Zoom link will be posted on this meetup page roughly 10 minutes before the meeting starts. Please join the meeting with your zoom user name matching the name you use on meetup so we can be sure you're not a random gate crasher. We will be aiming to start the game on time so be on time. This game takes up to 4 players.
