The Game Thing

Hey Gamers! Caught wind of a cool prize offered up by boardgametables.com. Check out their sweepstakes and current Kickstarter if you want. I own a table from this company, used their game bags to haul stuff to The Game Thing, and have enjoyed all the games they've published so far.
Good luck, and Game ON!

Last week, The Game Thing quietly turned 10 years old. On January 10th, 2011 three of us gathered on short notice to play board games at the Santa Fe Complex. Within the month we were getting more than 20 people together to play. We've averaged closer to 30 per event for the bulk of our tenure. Our largest night saw 52 gathered at Second Street Rufina Taproom sometime in early 2019.

The Pandemic has been hard on all of us, but I'm glad to know that we take a little bit of each other into the battle. Time spent teaching and learning, or just laughing at each other's jokes are armor we have against the isolation.

A relatively small contingency of us still gather every Monday on the Santa Fe Gamers Discord channel to play board games together online. Feel free to jump in and say hi. I'm sure you'll recognize some of the voices.

Stay well, and GAME ON!

Let's celebrate The Game Thing's 8th birthday tonight at Rufina Taproom! Kristin is making us a birthday cake and it would be lovely to see some faces from the last 8 years of socializing over games in Santa Fe.

Special thanks to everyone who used to run and attend events at the Santa Fe Complex—where Randy, Scott and I gathered on January 10th, 2011 for the very first iteration of The Game Thing. We've added more than 900 members since then and I look forward to seeing you all at the table very soon.

Cheers, and as always, GAME ON!

Had a blast play-testing and reviewing Mutants: the card game by Lucky Duck Games on Monday. The Kickstarter goes live in October, so stay tuned for more details and help us play-test it a bunch between now and then so that we can help it be the best version of itself by the time it fulfills!
