[Boardgames] Spiel des Jahres

[Michael Haddox-Schatz]

I definitely would like to play one of these, so I'm calling dibs on one of the 6 spots.  :)

BTW, there is an escape room in the Kroger plaza on Victory, not far from the lab. I'd love to do it sometime. The details are (or were a little while ago when I inquired), $25/person, about an hour, 2-8 people per room. Talking to them, the recommend you have at least 3, as they've found only 2 people have trouble finishing in time. In actually checking out the rooms, 8 people feel like it would be really crowded, so I fell like a group of 3 or 4 would be idea. They are open Thursday - Sunday.

If you have interest, let me know.

Michael

I wanted to get one of the Exit games to try and lunch one time. I think there's an hour timer, so it would probably just go a little over, time-wise. I think they are limited to something like 6 players though, as more people can't all look at the puzzles and will wind up just sitting around, waiting for a turn to look at stuff.
