We are a group of independent game developers, students, and fans. We share a passion for game development and the independent games that we love to play. We meet every other Sunday at the Schaumburg Public Library, at 6pm. Our meetups usually last around 2 - 3 hours but the great thing about the meetup is the relationships with other developers that you will build. We are not just colleagues we are friends and are willing to help with feedback on projects and other needs that fellow indie …

Come meet some friends, hear a couple of great industry speakers talk about what's cool in games. We're especially interested in Casual Game Association Minna Mingles members and IGDA members who may have not gotten together in a long time. Hopefully we can be a resource.

Meet with local professional and aspiring video game developers who are interested in experimenting new ways to develop video games.

Meet nearby Party Game Players! This group is designed for adults (sort-of) who enjoy games like Pictionery, Scattergories, Password, and Charades. Very easy rules and a nice, intimate setting where we keep score but nobody loses.  Typically, we stick to PARTY games and not card or board games. It's more constant action for everybody, and, I believe, lends itself to more goofiness!    MAKE TIME FOR FUN!!

Let's play games!  Board games (the old ones; Scrabble, Monopoly, Sorry, etc.) card games, and whatever.  Just going out to have fun and maybe a little dinner and spirits.   We'll mainly meet either on Tuesday nights at Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill, or Monday nights at Bowman's Tavern & Grill.  We're also open to suggestions. You can either arrive at the posted time for dinner and drinks, or about an hour later to join us for games.  Drinking while playing is strongly encouraged. :)  Pl …

Games bring people together and sharpen the senses.  They promote comraderie and much a creativity.  Our mission is to bring together gamers of all skill levels and social comfortableness, and turn it into a positive experience.

3/6/12 - Weekday Games & Semi-Competitive Sundays! Tuesday (3/13) will mark the return of our Tuesday/Thursday weekday games, starting at 5ish until sundown. We're also experimenting with splitting our regular Sunday games into two segments, a "recreational" game from noon - 2 PMish, which is just our typical game. As well as a "semi-competitive" game starting at 2 PMish. These will emphasize player development, smarter decision-making, and involve man-to-man defense, some harder running, playin …

We play various strategy boardgames, also called "Eurogames" or "designer games".

We are extremely happy to have beginners! Whether you are new to our group, or new to Euro games (or both!), we will help you to find a game that you will enjoy :) If you have a specific game you wish to p …

While we all play games for our body's health & fitness, few of us play games for our brain's health & fitness.  But recent medical research says we should. It shows that there are 3 important contributors to brain fitness:    (1) eating the right food & nutrition;    (2) maintaining physical activity & exercise; and    (3) playing super fun games with others. The first two are easy enough to do, but where and how can you play super fun games with others?  Easy: Thinkers' Toys. What are Thin …
