Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.
Rules:
- Play nicely with others here.
- Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
- Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

We haven't had any in-person game nights in quite some time (our usual crews decided to have kids and they are understandably exhausted), but I was able to introduce a remote friend to Catan this past week and she loves it. The app is janky and clunky but it gets the job done.
Kids are like a long term investment! Very costly at the beginning, but within 10 years you have yourself a permanent player at your disposal ๐ (that's what I tell myself every time I decline a game night for being too exhausted ๐ )
Most of our game nights happen after 9 when everyone's kids are asleep nowadays. Can still fit in most types of games but no epic experiences like Twilight Imperium tho :<
