The Holiday Season is almost upon us, and the air is chilling (if you're in the northern hemisphere, at least!). We offer some gift suggestions this week, to help you decide what to get the board gamers in your life. Wednesday November 29th 2017, we continue by discussing accessible strategy games, sometimes called family strategy games, which are also games we find to be excellent for the café environment.

Holiday Gift Ideas, Part 2 - Family Strategy or "Café" Games

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.
