What we’re about

This is a group for nice people who like to play board games. Most of the events will be hosted at my Buffalo home on Saturdays. New to boardgaming? We'll teach you some games - I really enjoy teaching games to people. Gaming veteran? Jump right in. We'll also do RPG stuff now and then. I like to run Call of Cthulhu games.

Most events are potluck snacks and drinks, and occasionally events are themed. We had a great Halloween meetup with costumes and spooky games in 2021.

My board game collection (250+ games) is here: https://boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/Coolmew?gallery=large&rankobjecttype=subtype&rankobjectid=1&columns=title%7Cstatus%7Cversion%7Crating%7Cbggrating%7Cplays%7Ccomment%7Ccommands&geekranks=%0A%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09Board%20Game%20Rank%0A%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09&excludesubtype=boardgameexpansion&own=1&objecttype=thing&ff=1&subtype=boardgame

I like thematic and deception games the most and deep Euros and "pick who was funniest" party games the least. I also do some RPG stuff, mostly focused on Call of Cthulhu. Some of my favorite games include social deduction/deception games and real time speedy games. Some of my favorite games lately include Space Alert, Werewolf (Ultimate and One Night), Cthulhu Wars, Eclipse, Mansions of Madness, Hanabi, Galaxy Trucker, the Republic of Rome, Gizmos, 2 Rooms and a Boom, and Secret Hitler.

There's a 6-year-old in the household - she doesn't spend much time around the boardgaming, but please make extra sure to look around for stray game pieces when you're packing up a game.

Please rsvp if you're planning to make it, and if you realize you can't make it, please update your rsvp as soon as you can as space is limited and we sometimes fill up.

This is a gun-free, pet-free, drug-free, smoke-free meetup. (That means don't bring those things, not that they are free. They are very expensive.)

To attend in person events you need to have gotten a covid shot at some point, or let me know your specific circumstances and we can discuss.

There are lots of food allergens like peanuts, soy, eggs, and gluten present in the meetup house - allergy havers beware.
