Description

Searching for a partner can be horrifically painful. But board games are always awesome. So what if you combined board games and finding a partner? Picture this: You sit down for a night of games. A gaming concierge walks you through several games over the course of the night. You play classics you love and discover brand new games you've never heard of, playing each with a different group of fun singles. All while in a great board game cafe that serves plenty of tasty desserts. At the end of the night, you give your gaming concierge a list of the folks you met that you'd like to date and a list of those you met that you'd like to just hang out with as friends. If any two people put down the same name as each other in either column, then your gaming concierge will make sure you get each other's e-mail address and you can coordinate a time to hang out. Best case scenario: You find true love, discover some awesome board games, and make some new friends. Bad case scenario: You accomplish only one of those three things, which is still pretty great. Worst case scenario: The venue does have a BYOB option. Before you decide to buy tickets, a few basics we should cover: 1) Knight Moves does not serve alcohol, but they do have a BYOB option for only $5. So if you'd like a drink with your gaming, bring whatever you'd like with you. You can purchase this BYOB add-on when you buy your ticket (at checkout, after you choose how many tickets you want, just scroll down a bit to see the byob add-on option) or just pay $5 at the door, whichever you prefer. 2) This event is for people ages 27-39. We will also be hosting an event for ages 21-32 at Knight Moves, for which you can grab tickets here. In the coming months we hope to offer same-sex speed dating nights as well as events for other age ranges. So if you don't see what you're looking for here, e-mail us at [email protected]. We'll keep you posted on when the right event for you opens up. And if you just can't make it to this one and want to be notified about future events, reach out to that same address. 3) If we get to 24 hours before the event and still haven't sold five tickets for each gender, we will cancel the event (and notify you). When we have run this event in the past, tickets have consistently sold very well, so we don't expect this to happen. But we thought we should cover this in case it came up. 4) How many games we have and which ones we use will be based in part on how many people attend, so we can't tell you for sure what we'll have right now. But the goal is for all of them to be fun, light, easy-to-learn games. Selection will include games from both the something-you-have-played-before category and the something-you-haven't-played-before category. The games are also chosen because they often tend to spark conversation and leave room for chatting with new people as you play. All games will be group games, meaning you'll get a chance to meet a handful of people with each new round.
