Looking for people who actually want to play the heavy games? 👀

Join us for Chonky Game Day on September 26th from 1–5 PM as we crack open the big boxes and dive into Sidereal Confluence!

This month, fire up your warp drives and join us in playing Sidereal Confluence, where players direct one of nine alien species seeking to advance themselves as they form a peaceful society with the other players. This game is best suited for players interested in longer, more strategic tabletop experiences and will be fully set up before attendees arrive so you can jump right into learning and playing.

A game of resource management and negotiation, Sidereal Confluence features nine player factions, each with a unique play style and optimal strategy.  Generate income and bid for colonies and technological breakthroughs as you seek to come out on top as the most influential species at Final Confluence.  Want to know more about this game beforehand?

What is Chonky Game Day? 

Chonky Game Day is our teach-and-play series focused on bigger, deeper board games that are hard to get to the table. Check out our other community events here: Upcoming Community Events

Who is this game day for?

Maybe your usual group hears “4-hour euro” and suddenly has “other plans.” Maybe you own a game with a 40-page rulebook and nobody brave enough to learn it with you. Maybe you just want fellow cardboard gremlins who think “complexity rating” is a challenge, not a warning.

Good news: we got you.

Due to the complexity and length of the featured games, Chonky Game Day is designed for older teens and adults.

What will we be doing?

We’ll be teaching Sidereal Confluence and spending the afternoon in a good-natured debate about just how much that little green cube is worth. Bring your gamer brain. We’ll handle the rest.

Do I need to know how to play this game beforehand?

No! We'll set up and teach the game to you. 

Is there a cost?

Yes, it is $5 per person.

Need more gaming?

Well then stick around after Chonky Game DAY for Cozy Game Night! After Sidereal Confluence, we'll be setting up for our Cozy Game Night celebrating National Pancake Day! Focused on lighter games, this Cozy Game Night will highlight Anarchy Pancakes. If you're interested in staying for this, register here: Sign up for upcoming community events!
