Welcome to Chicagoboardgames.com

Thanks for coming by!

What you may have discovered, or soon will, is that board games have advanced a lot over the years. And many of them are very, very good. From discovering new civilizations to fighting off zombies in a barn, there are board games designed around an amazing variety of interests and activities. We hope that you'll think past your old favorites and challenge yourself with something new.

If you are just stopping by and not based in Chicago, I am connected in with similar groups around the nation. Drop me a note and I'll point you to one in your area!

For people interested in Role-Playing games, join my other meetup group: www.RPGChicago.com

Please visit the "About Us" section of our message board to learn more about the group and what we can do for you!

What members are saying! (See all member comments)

 You get to learn and play new games without having to read the rules yourself. If not, you can bring a game and teach others how to play.
