GenCon, North America's largest boardgame convention, was (a) last week, and (b) in Indianapolis. Two compelling reasons why it would be difficult for most of our regular customers to get there. But here in Toronto, we have a huge convention coming up this weekend. It's not dedicated exclusively to games, but the Snakes and Lattes crew will be there, and the guy in charge of boardgaming at Fan Expo is here to tell us all about it.

Conventions and Fan Expo

The world of tabletop games is a lot bigger than most people realize. In fact it's so big that the idea of investigating it can actually be kind of intimidating. When you see all those games you've never heard of, with rules and concepts and themes you've never seen before in a game, it's hard to know where to start.
The answer is: start with the SnakesCast. Every week, we'll bring you ten or fifteen minutes' worth of banter about what makes these games worth playing. With a different theme every episode and a rotating cast of both gurus and non-gurus from Toronto's premiere boardgame café, we'll show you just how much there is to play with out there.
