What you may not have realized is that an entire industry has been growing right under your nose and board games have been innovating and improving along with all your other favorite pastimes. Let us unlock for you the door to the world of modern board gaming where it’s possible to play cooperatively with friends, your decisions actually matter, and the games are about more than simply rolling dice and hoping for the best. So, join our team of board game experts in the Tabletop Gaming room for an introduction to board games!

Jailbreak!

Jailbreak! – It was not a quiet night: a sudden storm blew across the farmlands, bringing thunder and lightning. An old man and his wife looked out at the storm as it turned to hail. They discussed going to the cellar, deciding to do so only if the weather became more extreme. They did not listen to the radio, so they didn’t hear the news. They didn’t try to call anyone, so they didn’t know their phone lines had been cut. They did not know there had been a jailbreak. They did not know a guard had been taken hostage by four convicts, convicts who had then seized a van on the highway. 5-9 players. Jailbreak is a renowned scenario for the Unknown Armies roleplaying game designed for play in a single session. It is a scenario low on combat but high on player vs. player tension, with a mix of characters with conflicting needs thrown into a volatile situation with perhaps a hint of the supernatural. No prior experience with Unknown Armies or roleplaying is required for play. Come immerse yourself in this perennial convention classic!

Numenera

Numenera is a science fantasy roleplaying game set in the far distant future. Humanity lives amid the remnants of eight great civilizations that have risen and fallen on Earth. These are the people of the Ninth World. This new world is filled with remnants of all the former worlds: bits of nanotechnology, the dataweb threaded among still-orbiting satellites, bio-engineered creatures, and myriad strange and wondrous devices. These remnants have become known as the numenera. Player characters explore this world of mystery and danger to find these leftover artifacts of the past, not to dwell upon the old ways, but to help forge their new destinies, utilizing the so-called magic of the past to create a promising future.
