NeuroGamers Ireland Meetup
Welcome to NeuroGamers Ireland, an event for those of us of all neurodiversity and their friends and allies who want to meet, hang out and play board and card games.
We'll be meeting at Third Space at Smithfield, which is only a 5-minute walk from the LUAS Red line station of the same name. We're happy to help in travelling using other forms of transport if you message.
Each event costs €5 which you can pay through cash or Revolut. It'll especially be appreciated with the space being booked for our group alone.
We have a range of games available please see list below. Feel free to message if there is one you want us to bring and feel free to bring own games.

Board Game Meet Up in Celbridge!
A weekly board game meet up in "Mc Mahon’s Bar and Eatery" which is a pub. We get our own section, it's wheelchair friendly and parking is free! 🙂
Whether you are new or a veteran player you are all are welcome!
General guidelines are:
1. Avoid handing drinks to people OVER a game.
2. We cannot take responsibility in the event of theft so keep your valuables close to you.
3. Strictly over 18+ only.
The "rules" would be:
1. Be respectful to each other.
2. Don't be a creep.
3. Be patient to players of all skill levels.
Failure to be a decent human being\* will jeopardise your participation in future events.
The pub owner is really nice and are letting us use the space so if you can - please buy a tea, coffee or a drink on the night to support them if you can but don't feel obligated to do so.
They also do food so you won't go hungry!
The event starts at 7 PM and everyone is free to play until 11 PM where we'll wrap it up for the cleaners.
Feel free to bring your games, join in on a game if there's space or organise a game here for the upcoming event to get participants. We advertise the games we want to play ahead of time on our discord server, so feel free to check it out. https://discord.gg/xW8WryXmKu
If you get lost or have any questions feel free to message me on WhatsApp at 0858405446.
Just a note for those coming by car from Dublin:
1. I highly recommend using the motorway then driving into the pub. There's a slightly faster way with the back roads but unless you are from the area its not worth the 2 minutes saved since it's barely lit and the bends are somewhat hazardous.
2. Traffic from 5 - 6:30 is horrendous but the roads are clear enough after this time.
🧵 Quality Time Workshop: Crochet a Book Sleeve
Dublin deserves more Quality Time—and a little more handmade charm.
Ready to slow down your Thursday evening, learn a beautiful new skill, and create something both practical and lovely?
Join us on June 11th at 18:30 in the cosy library at the Ruby Molly Hotel for our next dedicated workshop. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to pick the hooks back up, we’ve designed a relaxed, low-pressure evening centred around texture, rhythm, and great company.

***
📘 What We’re Making We will be crafting a beautiful Book Sleeve to protect your favourite reads! During the workshop, our teachers (Polina, Emi, and Shayna) will guide you step-by-step through the continuous granny square technique. It’s the perfect, meditative pattern to zone-out into once you get the rhythm.
🕰️ The Schedule

* 18:45 – 21:15 \| The Creative: Hands\-on instruction\. We will get our loops started\, learn the stitches\, and dive into the soothing flow of crocheting together\. In the meantime \- we will also have some quality time conversations and connect 🙂
* 21:15\-21:30 \| Soft goodbyes

* 🧶 Just the Yarn (€13): Includes entry to the workshop and all the blue yarn needed. Note: You must bring your own 4mm crochet hook! Please ensure it is exactly this size so your sleeve fits perfectly.
**THE TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE UP TO THE 31st OF MAY SO WE CAN HAVE TIME TO ORDER THE MATERIALS!**
***Please RSVP on [Luma](https://luma.com/mlrmuume) page, so we can order the right amount of materials! This is a discovery listing!***
💜 Essentials:
* Solo-Friendly: Most of our community members come solo! We are experts at making you feel welcome and part of the group immediately.
* Boutique Vibes: The Ruby Molly is a non-cash venue, so please bring a card/phone to support our lovely hosts by treating yourself to a drink or snack at the bar.
* Come for the craft, stay for the connection. Spaces are strictly limited due to the cosy nature of the library, so claim your corner early!

Saturday Mafia Session - Social Deduction Game
This event is beginner Friendly. More experienced players are still free to come along. I will explain the rules before the first game at 7:15 so please arrive on time if you're new. The rules may be different than other versions of mafia that you played.
There is limited capacity so we can't accept every RSVP request. If we aren't able to accept your RSVP event please come to a future.
Sunday boardgame meetup
Our free-of-charge meet-up in the Black Sheep Pub on Capel Street.
This is a casual meet up for people who want to play boardgames. Lots of people bring plenty of games and rules will always be explained so don't worry if you're new to the hobby and you don't have anything to bring along or think you won't know how to play.
The meet-up runs for the whole day but late comers always welcome, you just may have to wait a little for a game to open up but games will be starting and ending throughout the day.
**IMPORTANT!**
**The meet up is free of charge but we do ask that people support the bar by buying food and/or drink. The bar is very accommodating to us and it's important that we support them in return. Bringing in outside food or drink is completely unacceptable.**
Check out the comments below where people will say what games they are bringing and express your interest in joining if interested.
Any questions contact either of the organisers Gavin or Stephen.
Let’s play… Salvage Union / Rosewood Abbey / The King is Dead
Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games - you will choose which game you play on the day. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination.
🎭 **This week's facilitators:**
* 🤖 **Flo** with *[Salvage Union](https://leyline.press/collections/salvage-union)*, a post-apocalyptic mech RPG with easy to learn mechanics. In a distant future, humanity has spread and scattered through the stars, Corporations own most of the liveable planets and a majority of the population works for them. Your group however is part of the Salvage Union, a self-sustaining community of workers, salvagers, pilots, technicians, cooks, and all manner of free spirits rejecting the Corpo’s hegemony. Your Crawler, a constantly falling apart colony-ship, slowly moves along from planet to planet in the Outer Rim to salvage as much Scrap as you can carry, using Mechs put together with salvaged scrap, duct tape and the unshakable belief that despite the Corpos and dangerous alien wildlife there is still hope and good people out there. You are **Salvagers**, what stories will they tell about you?
* ⛪ **Vishnu** with *[Rosewood Abbey](https://rolistespod.itch.io/rosewood-abbey)*, a *Carved from Brindlewood* adventure where an informal brotherhood of curious friars, the Fratres Herodoti, solve the latest mystery that everyone is convinced is an act of god or the devil. In this week's adventure, the single rose that bloomed in winter is missing and it's up to the friars to get to the bottom of it before the rumour mill blows it up and the papal inquisition comes investigating.
* 👑 **Adam** leading warrior princes and princesses towards a war of succession in *[The King Is Dead](https://lumpley.itch.io/the-king-is-dead)*, a GM-less, card-based RPG. The king of Banteave has died without heir and civil war is certain. To see your house exalted, you’ll have to fight and scheme, ally with your rivals and betray your friends. You were born for this.

Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).

We will explain the rules to you and help you create your dream character. If you want to join the fun, get in one of the games at [https://warhorn.net/events/ireland-pfs/schedule/2026/06/13](https://warhorn.net/events/ireland-pfs/schedule/2026/06/13)
What do I need?
Just a set of dice and something to take notes.
Do I need a character to play?
We have pregenerated characters of all types that you can use right away.
Do I need to know all the rules?
The basic rules are not difficult, and we can help you get up to speed if you don't know them. Here is a basic guide [https://www.simplypf2e.com/simplyplayers](https://www.simplypf2e.com/simplyplayers)

Board games at The Forge
The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~20 per person. Soft drink refills are 1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group!
The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play.
Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes.
We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area.
Parking can sometimes fill esrly. There is additional parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
