==========================================================
This is a dedicated Two Rooms and a Boom night—fast rounds, big social energy, lots of laughs, and dessert to keep the vibes sweet while the accusations get spicy.

Two Rooms and a Boom is a high-energy social deduction / negotiation party game. We split into two rooms (two groups), everyone receives a secret role, and you’ll spend short timed rounds talking, bluffing, trading information, and trying to figure out who’s on which team. After each round, a few “hostages” swap rooms, and by the end, the final room mix determines which side wins. It’s quick to learn, chaotic in the best way, and stays engaging because the room rotations constantly change who you’re working with (or working against).

For an 18-player group, please plan for a total playtime of about 30 minutes per game (this includes rule reminders, timed discussion rounds, hostage swaps between rooms, and the final reveal/scoring).

Total time per game: 30 minutes
Break between games: 10 minutes

==========================================================
Blood on the Clocktower (BOTC)

If we have time and enough interested players, we may also run Blood on the Clocktower, a longer-form social deduction game with deeper character abilities and a more story-driven feel.

In Blood on the Clocktower, players are split into Good and Evil teams, and each player receives a unique character with a special ability. The group discusses, bluffs, and investigates during the “day,” then the Storyteller runs the “night” where abilities resolve and events unfold. The twist: players can still participate after they die (as ghosts), so you stay engaged and contributing throughout the game. It’s more strategic than Two Rooms and a Boom, but still approachable—even for first-timers.

Food plan: This meetup is hosted at Wild Parrot Brewing, and everyone must purchase at least one item directly from Wild Parrot Brewing (drink and/or food, if available). If you want to eat before the game starts, arrive early so you can place your order and still be ready for the 5:30 PM hard start. During breaks, please keep purchases quick and be mindful of the round schedule so we can stay on time.

Bring a good poker face, a friendly attitude, and dessert energy—then let’s see who can talk their way to the win.

Venue Purchase Requirement:
Everyone must purchase at least one drink or dessert at Meet Fresh. Food is not offered at this establishment.
