Play Something New with us every Friday night!

Our Play Something New board game demo nights are a perfect opportunity to relax, learn a new game, and get involved with our ever-growing board gaming community! We will be featuring and teaching a different game each week.

Here’s How It Works:

Sign up for a Demo: We will have several tables of game demos for our Featured Game running from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm. Demo experiences will last around 30 minutes and will go over the basic rules of the game and several turns of play. Games may be limited to a certain number of turns/ rounds to allow for everyone to get a seat at a demo throughout the night. Demo sign-ups will cut off at 8:30.

Sale and Raffles: Our Featured Game will be on sale for 20% off during the event for anyone who participated in a demo! In addition, some open copies of the game will be raffled off once the demos are finished for the night.

Open Board Gaming: In addition to the demo…..hang out and play! Tables will be available for open board gaming until our Game Room closes up (around 9:45 pm). Bring some games with you to play or get in on a game with other board gamers. In addition, we will have some open copies of popular board games on hand to try during the event!

Cost: The cost for the event is a $10 “Credit Swap” (you’ll get $10 in store credit back with your entry!)

Tonight’s Featured Game: Delicious

"Spend the afternoon in your rooftop or backyard garden. Relax while enjoying this artful game of picking, pairing, and planting fruits and vegetables. Grow your plants in whatever container you can. Wheelbarrows, boots, suitcases – use anything you can to grow delicious eats! Will you create the most delicious garden?

Over the course of a game of Delicious, players fill their respective gardens with fruits and vegetables by sketching them based on cards and tokens that are revealed in the community area. Players take their turns sketching simultaneously each round as these plants are revealed. Earn the most points by planting fruits and vegetables in your makeshift containers and planters.

A game lasts 12 rounds. Every round, 2 Vegetable cards are flipped (1 from each deck) and a Fruit / Tool token is placed on each card. Each player then decides to use one or both cards (and their tokens), given certain restrictions. When you use a card and token, you mark your Garden and Play sheets, trying to get different combinations of fruits and vegetables.

The cards in the middle are common, but players place them in different containers within their garden setting up different combinations and scoring opportunities. Bonus tools and special powers mean that no two gardens are ever alike."
