There's something for everyone—strategy games, thinking games, number challenges, and more. Dive into your favorite familiar games (Connect 4, Othello, Blockus, Prime Climb, SET) or team up with fellow attendees to explore something new (ever heard of Black Box, Abalone, Rumis, Input, Multi, Numeroso?). From classic puzzles to fresh challenges, this is your chance to unwind, connect, and ignite your competitive spirit. No experience needed. We’ll teach you the games as needed. Just bring your enthusiasm and enjoy the fun! See you there!
