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.

¿Te apetece pasar una tarde agradable jugando a juegos de mesa y conociendo gente nueva en un ambiente relajado y cercano? Este encuentro está pensado precisamente para eso: socializar, conectar y pasarlo bien, sin importar si ya conoces los juegos o si es tu primera vez en el grupo. ¿Qué tipo de juegos jugamos? Elegimos juegos accesibles, dinámicos y sociales, no solo juegos largos o complicados. Por ejemplo: Juegos rápidos y ligeros como 6 nimmt!, Love Letter o Sushi Go Juegos de interacción y risas como Codenames, Dixit o Exploding Kittens Juegos de deducción social como The Resistance, Salem o Werewolves Y, si apetece, algún juego un poco más estratégico, siempre explicado con calma No importa si es tu primera vez en el grupo: explicamos las reglas y elegimos juegos accesibles para que todo el mundo se sienta cómodo desde el principio. El juego es solo la excusa para socializar y conectar de forma natural. Un espacio seguro y diverso Solemos ser un grupo diverso, abierto y con muy buen rollo, donde se respeta a todo el mundo. Queremos crear un entorno amable, sin juicios, en el que cualquiera pueda sentirse a gusto. ️ En español (o para practicarlo) Si hablas español o te apetece practicarlo en un entorno amable y natural, estarás más que bienvenida/o. El grupo suele estar formado por personas de distintos orígenes y niveles, y la comunicación fluye de manera relajada. Si te apetece conocer gente de forma tranquila, sin presión y con los juegos como punto de encuentro, este plan es para ti. ¡Te esperamos! Nota: se solicitará a los participantes una donación voluntaria de 2€ para gastos de organización y compra de juegos.

Give it a try!” - Brenda "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara [Check out our 130+ Google reviews here](https://www.google.com/maps/place/EPIC+LLAMA/@29.4255256,-41.3746386,3z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf758abc88e22289c!8m2!3d29.4255256!4d-41.3746386?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiAydX55IP9AhWWQjABHejpCCkQ_BJ6BAhWEAg&coh=164777&entry=tt&shorturl=1)[ ](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7) *(these are real humans, we promise!)* ** FAQ** **• What's the age range?** Most people who come to our events are between 24 and 40 years old.

Let’s knock down some pins and knock back a few drinks while we’re at it. Bowling is one of the best stress relievers out there, so bring your A game and let’s see what you’ve got. It’s $20 per person, which includes free shoe rental and two hours of open bowling. We’ll start with six people per lane. Once we have six, we’ll grab our lane and get rolling. If more people show up after that, we’ll snag the lane right next to us and keep the party going. Come ready to have some fun.

Come ready to play. We’re turning dinner into a full-on game night. Card games, competitive chaos, and yes, those long strategic nerd games my friends love to play. We’ll also have Jackbox games on the big screen so everyone can jump in and talk a little trash. There will be pizza. There will be drinks. There will be snacks. There will absolutely be laughter. Pull up, grab a slice, pick a game, and let’s make it a night. \* This will be at someone's house so address will be given night before the event.
