It turned out to be great social occasion where all age groups played a selection of easy to pick up but very re-playable modern board games The games included a selection of demonstrator led games appealed to both adults and teens alike
One such game with a great sounding name was Qwirkle! a game where you matched colours and shapes together to score points. A simple but very replay-able tile placement game for those who love patterns.
Another fun game for ages 10+ was Abandon All Artichokes – Abandon All Artichokes isn’t your garden-variety card game!
A bumper-crop of prickly produce has overtaken your patch, and there’s only one choice: abandon all artichokes! Prune your deck by harvesting fresh vegetables, each with a special power that lets you swap, discard, or compost cards. You need luck, strategy, and a green thumb to grow a winning hand!
