What we’re about
Born during lockdown this group aims to provide opportunities to play fun and friendly online games!
Sessions are over Zoom and we play things like Werewolf, games on Board Game Arena like King of Tokyo, Incan Gold, Just One, Coup, 6 Nimmt, and other digital versions of board games including Codenames, Fake Artist and Gartic Phone.
The main rule we have is to be excellent to each other (insert air guitar). This group is all about having a bit of fun so being friendly and welcoming is of paramount importance! We welcome players of all experience levels and from all backgrounds. Here's our Code of Conduct. If you want to get gaming online then sign-up for a session!

•OnlineWerewolf
OnlineWerewolf is a fun social deduction game that works really well on Zoom.
Here's a short video on very roughly how it plays: Video
Also a video on the rules is here: RulesEveryone is living together in a nice peaceful village, well, until werewolves start eating people of a night time. And the most impolite thing? Some of the villagers are actually the werewolves! Rude. The game runs in phases, the day phase and the night phase. During the day phase, everyone discusses who they think is suspicious and might be a hidden furbag. They then vote on that person and if the village agrees they're a werewolf, they are immediately killed! You then find out if you were right, or if you just murdered an innocent human. During the night phase, the werewolves secretly decide on who dinner is that evening. That person is then killed. This cycle of day and night continues until either all the werewolves are dead, or the werewolves equal the villagers in numbers. Don't worry though, there are some special villagers who will have abilities to help you root out these hairy pests!
Please have a pen and paper to write on, or preferably a thick marker pen as you may need to show names to the zoom camera. Alternatively you can use an app on your phone like "Large Text" in android or "MEGATEXT Led Banner Text" in iOS.
We'll be aiming to start the game around 7:10pm at the latest so please try to be on time. Note, in the event more than 24 people join the call, the first 24 will get priority in playing. (Zoom only allows 25 people on the screen at once so that's our limit)
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 gatecrasher.

•OnlineGames night: online board games
OnlineLet's play some online board games! For this, you will only need access to zoom, a browser and potentially something to write on. Some games we might play are: Just One, Codenames, A Fake Artist Goes to New York, Sushi Go, Challengers, Stella Dixit, Love Letter, 6 Nimmt, Incan Gold, King of Tokyo, Coup, Bang. We're also open to suggestions. A lot of the games are on a website called boardgamearena.com so it is worth signing up to that (it's free).
We will split up into breakout rooms to play a variety of games, if you would like to host a room for a particular game, or have something in mind you would like to play, then please comment below! PLEASE NOTE: the number of people we can handle is directly related to how many hosts we end up with on any given night. We will always guarantee 20 spaces on a first come first served basis, and will admit more to the meeting if we have enough hosts to run more breakout rooms/games.
