Are you someone who enjoys group games but can’t always find people to play with?  Do you enjoy the challenge and thrill of the game as much as hanging out with your friends?  This group may be for you. The goal of Salem Board Games is  to offer events where people can lose themselves in a game in a warm, welcoming environment. Many of our events are geared toward specific types of games, and our event postings will detail what you can expect at an event.  For all events, we do ask that you ad …

My friend Nina created this group on February 23, 2009.  I joined on July 16, 2009, and became the organizer on July 4, 2012, when Nina stepped down due to an upcoming move to Florida.  Nina, we'll forever be in your debt for getting this group off the ground! From the beginning this group has been different than other Meetup Groups I belong to (and have belonged to).  How are we different?  Let me cover a few ways. We usually meet in members homes. Most Meetup groups that I'm aware of usually h …

I run a website about board games, BoardgameNews.com, and while I have a regular game group, I'm always looking for more opportunities to play – especially since I have a towering stack of board and card games to review. If you're in the greater Concord, NH area and looking to learn new games, or play old favorites with new friends, then this is the group for you. Since I'm kicking off this group from scratch, notwithstanding the 100+ people waiting for someone to start this group, I'm not sur …

How many people out there love board and card games and their partner or friends don't? For me, it all started as a child growing up in the 60's, no video games, no pc, just books or T.V., which by the way in England only had 4/5 hours a day programming. So board games became an intrical part of every day life. But here in the states things were different, it seems, and most of my friends considered board games to be bored games. So here we are, hosting an entertaining evening of fun and games f …

UPDATE as of August of 2012:  We're currently in the process of trying to find a public place where we can meet and play games at least twice a month.  If you have suggestions on a good place to do that please contact me, Patrick - the group owner, and let me know.  Hopefully we can get this resolved soon.  One business so far turned us down due to "liability concerns."  Thanks.  -Patrick -------------------- This group is for new to middle level players of card and Euro-games who are also int …

Chess is an incredible game...but with all the smartphones, Xboxes, iPads, and iPods out there, it sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. In fact, games don't have to be played in high def or with high-tech controllers to be fully engaging. Chess is one of those games. With a simple board and 32 pieces, chess continues to captivate amateurs and grandmasters alike. All you need is a basic knowledge of how the pieces move, a fair amount of concentration and insight and you have become a viable chess …
