8Bit Box, Go Cuckoo, and More at a New Venue; the EZY Mode eSports Gaming Lounge – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

by Leave a Comment

The big thing that happened this past week is that I hosted a public game night at a new venue. At EZY Mode I taught a bunch of board games. Up first was Go Cuckoo. This was followed by a game of Gentes Deluxified.  I then broke out the 8Bit Box from Iello and we tried all three of the included games. Up next was a couple of games of Blokus. We finished off the night with a five player game of Cinque Terre.

In addition to that gaming event, after our regular Gloomhaven game this past Friday I broke out one of my favourite games from my childhood: Cats. We even live streamed our play of this classic kids game.
I did have one final game this past week. That was playing Go Cuckoo with the entire family at a backyard party at the kids' music teacher's house. [ READ MORE ]
