Blood on the Clocktower at Manifesto! (beginner/intermediate)
Hi folks, this is the meetup group for the weekly Sunday Blood on the Clocktower games in the Soot bar in Manifesto at Potsdamer Platz. We run beginner-friendly and intermediate-level games throughout the afternoon and evening. **Friendly newcomers of all skill levels are welcome, no experience required!**
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”.
We are usually able to offer two simultaneous games on Sundays. If you are marked as "attending" in Meetup and are in your seat at 15:00, your place is guaranteed for as long as you want to stay. All other seats are first come, first served. We always run at least one beginner-friendly game of the basic version of Clocktower ("Trouble Brewing") throughout the afternoon and evening. We also usually have enough players for a second intermediate-level game. If you are already very familiar with Clocktower, consider also joining our Tuesday meetup for advanced players, when we play with complex custom scripts and characters.
Blood on the Clocktower is a deep, mechanical game of murder and mystery, lies and logic, deduction and deception… think Werewolf on steroids. Each player receives a unique secret role and plays either for the good team – the uninformed majority, gathering info and working with others to solve the puzzle – or the evil team, the informed minority, scheming to eliminate good players and protect their demon from execution. In our beginner games no prior experience is expected and we will gladly explain the game rules to any newcomers.
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.
We are very grateful to the wonderful folks at Manifesto for hosting our meetup! **Please support the venue during your visit by buying drinks and/or food.**
Meditation & Tea in Prenzlauer Berg Park
This Sunday we’ll meet again in Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg for an afternoon of Chinese tea, quiet outdoor meditation, and relaxed community time.
The format will be the same as usual:
* tea and a short intro
* 20 min metta
* tea
* 20 min calm concentration
* tea & informal exchange
* 20 min vipassana
Depending on the mood of the group, we may also continue with the community sharing format we’ve been trying: personal reflections on everyday life, meditation practice, and what has been unfolding for us lately — not as teachers, just as fellow practitioners.
**When:** Sunday, 1 PM
**Where:** Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg
**Bring:** something comfortable to sit on, weather-appropriate clothes, and optionally your own tea cup
Beginners and experienced meditators are equally welcome. Come sit quietly with us in the park.

0.1% Accurate- English Comedy Night
**Step right up for a fortune-telling experience that's barely accurate, but definitely unforgettable.**
Magdalena, the "fortune teller", combines a crystal ball, questionable predictions and a healthy dose of dark humour in a show that's as absurd as it is entertaining.
Described by the 'Scotsman' (top newspaper in the UK) as 'unexpected, clever, ridiculous but great stuff, crystal ball and all', this interactive comedy has left audiences worldwide laughing and wondering what just happened.
Some say it's life-changing, others call it pure nonsense-but no one escapes without a few laughs, some spirit summoning and answers you probably didn't want.
**Sold out run in Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2025**
Reserve your seat for just €2, and at the end of the show, you decide what it was worth (suggested contribution: €10-15). Reservations are held until 10 minutes before the show starts. This is a paid show—you just get to choose how much to pay.
**Make sure to reserve your ticket [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/01-accurate-english-comedy-night-tickets-1975608368813?aff=meetup)**

Thanks, Marco
We play every Sunday—year-round—and are looking for a few players who are willing to join regularly. Average age is around 27-50.
We play on grass using poles as goals, which allows us to adjust the field and goal size depending on the number of players. Please arrive on time, as we need to divide the teams.
Game starts 11:30 sharp.
Wir spielen jeden Sonntag - ganzjährig - und suchen nach ein paar Spielern, die sich vorstellen können, regelmäßig dazuzukommen. Alter im Schnitt ca. 27-50.
Wir spielen auf Rasen mit Stangen als Toren, wodurch wir die Platz- und Torgrösse flexibel a die Anzahl der Spieler anpassen können. Bitte pünktlich da sein, weil wir die Mannschaften aufteilen müssen.
Das Spiel beginnt pünktlich um 11:30 Uhr.

Art Brunch for the Soul - Innere Freiheit spüren – Meere malen
Workshop \| 31\.05\.2026 \| 16:00 – 18:30
Nach einer ruhigen Einstimmung und einem entspannten vegetarischen Frühstück mit gutem Tee widmen wir uns dem Thema **innere Freiheit** und malen das Meer. In diesem **Kreativ- und Malkurs in Berlin** verbinden wir intuitives Malen mit Achtsamkeit und Weite.
Das Meer steht für Bewegung, Tiefe und Weite. Beim Malen von Wellen, Horizonten und offenen Flächen lernen wir, Raum entstehen und den Geist frei werden zu lassen. Unter kunsttherapeutischer Anleitung entstehen **kraftvolle und zugleich ruhige Meeresbilder**, ganz ohne Anspruch auf Perfektion.
Dich erwartet ein besonderes **Brunch-Erlebnis in Berlin** in einer kleinen Gruppe, liebevoll angeleitet und achtsam begleitet von Anna (Malerin und Kunsttherapeutin) und Chloe (Expertin für Achtsamkeit und verschiedene Weisheitstraditionen).
Intuitives Malen ist Malen aus dem Herzen – ein Malen, das Dich einlädt, entstehen zu lassen, was sich zeigen möchte.
Wie das Meer in ständiger Bewegung ist und doch Ruhe ausstrahlt, dürfen auch wir Weite, Gelassenheit und innere Freiheit spüren. Farben, Formen und die beruhigende Weite helfen dabei, zu entspannen und neue Klarheit zu gewinnen.
Vorkenntnisse sind nicht nötig – nur die Bereitschaft, Dich auf diesen **Malkurs in Berlin** einzulassen und Dich von der Weite des Meeres inspirieren zu lassen.
**Ein Workshop, der öffnet, beruhigt und frei macht.**
Ablauf:
Nach einem kleinen Input zum Thema „Innere Freiheit“ – bei Tee und einem liebevollen Frühstück – tauchen wir ein in die sanfte Welt des intuitiven Malens vom Meer.
Du wirst achtsam durch den Malprozess begleitet und lernst dabei, Wogen und Gischt, Horizonte und Spiegelungen, Nordseewellen oder ruhige Ostseeufer auf die Leinwand zu bringen.
Nimm anschließend Deine Kreation mit nach Hause, um Dich an ihr zu erfreuen und Dich in Deinem inneren “frei-werden” Prozess weiter zu begleiten.
**Workshops**
Die Eventreihe ***Art Brunch for the Soul*** besteht aus mehreren Workshops, die unabhängig voneinander besucht werden können.
**Übersicht der Workshops**
* 01.02.2026: Intuitives Malen – Loslassen – Wolken malen
* 14.02.2026: Art dating – Fühlen, kreieren, lachen
* 28.02.2026: Innere Kraft finden – Berge malen

* 30.05.2026: Innere Freiheit spüren – Meer Malen

**PS:**
**Hi everyone!**
Just a quick note ahead of our event at the **Heinrich-Schulz Library**:
🚪 Since we’re meeting **before the library officially opens**, the main doors might be locked. To avoid anyone being locked out,
📌 **Please arrive on time** — we’ll start settling in at **10:00 AM**.
📱 If you arrive and can’t get in, either knock on a window where the lights are on or push the button sitting on top of the metal pole where the door opener is. I'll come out and let you in.
Looking forward to a calm, cozy morning of books and good company.
See you soon!

Origami CATalogue at a cat café 🐈
For the first time in its almost two years of history, Origami Crafters in Berlin goes into a **cat café**! Actual cats will be around to witness our folding efforts.*🐈🐈⬛*
And what could be more appropriate to fold there than **cats** themselves? We might also add **mice** to the folding menu, depending on your appetite (and so to say, our origami cats' appetite too). 😺🐭
We invite you to join us at the very centrally located **Katzentempel** (S+U Friedrichstrasse) to fold a feline cat-alogue while enjoying the company of real cats roaming around.
What you can expect in our events:
* **Mandatory donation (amount of your choice)** – this supports essential costs like the Meetup subscription and keeps our community thriving. 🌱 You can either submit a physical donation to the event host in person or make a digital donation [here](https://paypal.me/origamiberlin?locale.x=de_DE&country.x=DE) (and inform the host afterwards).
* **Please order at least one drink/snack** to support Katzentempel for hosting us!
* **In-person folding practice for all levels** – beginners and experienced folders are equally welcome.
* **Origami paper + model instructions will be provided** (from the host’s collection, for reference only). Feel free to bring your own favorite sheets or tools!
* **Photos may be taken** for memories & our archive (Meetup, Instagram, Telegram) – let the host know if you prefer not to appear.
⚠️ **RSVP Policy – Please Read** ⚠️
Our community has grown a lot since its birth in August 2024, which is amazing — but it also means we need to handle RSVPs more carefully:
* Please cancel your spot or contact the host directly (via Meetup message function or our [Telegram channel](https://t.me/+T4URs80l2ig3NWNi)) if you can't make it last minute.
* Members with **2 no-shows** (without notice) will be removed from the group unless a valid reason is provided.
Thank you for helping us keep Origami Crafters Berlin respectful, reliable, and fun! 🙏 Get in touch if you have questions anytime and see you all at the folding tables very soon! ☕️

In May, a varied circular hike leads us through the beautiful Strausberg and Blumenthal Forest and Lake District nature reserve.
The trail runs mostly along the shores of Lake Bötzsee and Lake Fängersee, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding nature. Along the way, we’ll encounter old, sometimes dilapidated, mills that tell tales of bygone eras. Idyllic bathing spots invite you to take a break – and perhaps it will even be warm enough for a first dip in the lake.
Since places to stop for refreshments along the way are not guaranteed, please remember to bring sufficient provisions and something to drink – better safe than sorry!

Unterwegs begegnen wir alten, teils verfallenen Mühlen, die von vergangenen Zeiten erzählen. Immer wieder laden idyllische Badestellen zu einer Pause ein – und vielleicht ist es ja schon warm genug für ein erstes Bad im See.
Da Einkehrmöglichkeiten unterwegs nicht garantiert sind, denkt bitte an ausreichend Proviant und etwas zu trinken – sicher ist sicher!
**Was ist Village Outdoor?**
Village Outdoor Events sind monatliche Treffen der we are village-Community und ihrer Freunde, um Outdoor-Aktivitäten in und um Berlin zu genießen. Zu den Aktivitäten gehören Waldwanderungen, Radtouren, Schwimmen in Seen, Sightseeing und Kajakfahren.

Wir können leider keine anderen Zahlungsmethoden annehmen. Zusätzlich benötigst du einen gültigen Fahrausweis (ABC-Ticket oder Deutschlandticket), den du vorab selbst organisieren musst.**
Unternimm mit uns einen Ausflug in die UNESCO-Welterbestadt Potsdam! Inmitten von Seen und historischen Schlössern erkunden wir gemeinsam die weitläufige Schlosspark-Anlage Sanssouci. Hier treffen preußische Geschichte und einzigartige Gartenkunst aufeinander. Ein perfekter Tag für alle, die Berlin kurz hinter sich lassen und etwas Besonderes erleben möchten.
Book Swap in Gleisdreieckpark 📚 – Social Butterfly Club 🦋
Bring a blanket, maybe a drink or snack, and 3–5 books you’d like to pass on, and spend a relaxed Sunday afternoon with fellow readers at the Gleisdreieck Park.
Novels, philosophy books, poetry, comics, forgotten favorites — in any language — everything is welcome. Maybe you’ll leave with fewer books — or more. Both are part of the adventure.
This is not a formal market or networking event — just a cozy little community gathering with books, conversations, and a bit of curiosity. Come browse, swap, chat, or simply enjoy the atmosphere on the grass.

There is no charge for the event itself and all are welcome but there are a few guidelines:
1. **You are expected to purchase food and/or drink to compensate the Cantina and our server.**
2. **No soliciting. Do not bring samples of your wares or brochures of your services.**
3. **Please respect the spiritual and political views of others that are present. No disruption of the peace.**
In case of inclement weather, we will find seating indoors.
I hope to see you there. Blessed be! \~ Cynthia ❤️---
