Game Clubs are a chance to get together and play board and card games. Game Clubs have RSVP slots (like Movie Clubs), but only because many games have a maximum number of players. So if you see a game you want to be a part of, book early! Additionally, some games will be played OUT AND ABOUT--they will happen at breweries in the greater Des Moines metro. Others will be played at my place, because they are a pain to move around. Check them out below! Most Board Game Club events run from 1:30-4:30, but you can check the calendar to see specifics. To see the calendar, click directly on the word EVENTS in the menu above (not on one of the sub-menus that pops up under it).
October 7 - Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game (@Home)
My favorite board game of all time. Plays up to 6 players. Betrayal and survival in deep space as the last of humanity tries to withstand the schemes of the fiendish robotic cylons. NOTE: This game is scheduled for 3:30-6:30... a bit later than our usual Board Game Club.
November 4 - Arkham Horror (@Home)
Investigators must work together to save the town of Arkham from the encroaching power of an elder god. An intense cooperative experience. Plays up to 8 players. We may go much later than 4:30 and add a host of expansions, but players may join or depart at will.

Spiralchain: The Board Game (POSTPONED)
Playtest the new board game set in my Spiralchain novel universe! In theory, this game will be up on Kickstarter in Spring 2019, so this will be extremely timely. You might even end up in a video on the Kickstarter page if you are feeling up to it! Plays up to 8 players. Will be played multiple times. New Date TBD (Late Feb/Early Mar)

March 3 - Cosmic Encounter (OUT AND ABOUT)
A light-hearted game of alien conquest. Plays up seven players. Will be played multiple times. A classic board game that everyone should play at least once!

May 5 - Killer Bunnies (@Home)
ABSOLUTE CARNAGE. Player vs. player has never been more ridiculous. Plays up to 8 players (though I've run it much larger before). We will play with ALL expansions, including the 2017 and 2018 ones!

September 8 - GAME TO BE ANNOUNCED
It's kind of presumptuous to believe that I won't fall in love with another game between now and September of 2019. This slot is reserved for that game I fall in love with during BD365!
