We were sad to see the Just Awesome! game store close, but plan to continue organizing events for the SF gaming community.  Expect to hear more soon.

We are an eccentric group that appreciate the art of silliness and the science of adventure. If you are a little bit quirky & a lot bit fun, this group is for you... "Geek Love" is the title of a fictional tale following a family of circus freaks. The name captures the eclectic spirit of our group's activities, ranging from: Themed dinners ...Rock your 50s poodle skirts & letter jackets for a retro BBQ; Pig out on pork cuisine at Geek Love's annual Bacon Bash Happy hours with a twist ...Don you …

This meetup exists to facilitate tabletop board and role-playing games in the East Bay. We meet semi-regularly in the El Sobrante area (near Pinole and San Pablo), in the back of the El Sobrante public library (atop the site of an old Huichin village and burial ground). We are generally not hardcore gamers and hope to share a large spectrum of game play. We have played such games as Arkham Horror, Descent, Munchkin, Resistance, and Monopoly. Currently we are meeting semi-regularly (c.f. El Sobra …

We will meet  for some friendly socializing and fun game playing.  Our original group started with Scrabble.  We are now expanding  to include other fun games such as Boggle, Rummikub, Charades, hearts.  Does anyone know how to play Euchre??

Enjoy a fun Weekday evening , or perhaps a Saturday of boardgames. We're a Marin based group that meets roughly every week or two to enjoy a relaxed social atmosphere of casual tabletop board games as Scrabble, Settlers of Catan, Risk, Power Grid, etc. -  and card games such as Apples to Apples, Dominion, Taboo, Cranium, Trivial Pursuit and Tichu along with old fav's like Hearts, Spades and Cribbage. Remember when you come to a Meetup to bring a few of your own games. Join us if you like board …

I am a member of a bunch of fun MeetUp groups, but many are far away.  This one is to try and round up more local people for my favorite interests. This group is for all of us who live in Concord and beyond and still want to have fun but with a little less driving. The hope is for us to be able to find some local people who like to do whatever it is we like to do or, at the least, meet some cool people in the area.  We've got some great local resources out here, and we're well situated for esc …

If you enjoy playing Scrabble, then this is the group for you. We don't get to competitive; this group is really about playing a fun game and enjoying the company. No need to bring a board, but do plan to have a drink or a nosh. We generally meet every Thursday at Au Coquelet Cafe in downtown Berkeley. Feel free to add other dates/venues. No fees, but do buy at least a drink or some food from the cafe.

Great group for adults who enjoy ALL types of board and card games. I'm hoping we'll be able to have individual "Host" houses for small group get togethers. I'll encourage multiple meetups on the same day or weekend with alot of different games, giving members a choice on what they'll want to play. I personally prefer the fantasy, horror and science fictions games, so I'll be hosting these types of games at my house, with an occasional "traditional" game thrown in, for example, Risk, Chess and t …

This meetup has been going on since about November 2011, as a place to organize weekly game nights.  We play mostly Euro-style strategy games, such as those found on boardgamegeek.com.  So, experienced strategy gamers are preferred but if you don't mind learning some relatively complicated rules, we are happy to teach.  We are always looking to recruit others to the die-hard boardgamer cult.  Welcome!

Play the Asian board game Goe with new and interesting People. Sponsored by American Ing Goe and the San Francisco Go Club to promote the spread of goe playing in the San Francisco Bay Area. Strong players will often attend to provide instruction.

Welcome to the North Oakland Go Club! Our regular playing time is 11:00 AM 3:00 PM each Sunday at the It's Your Move game store at 4920 Telegraph Ave. in the Temescal business district (a block south of 51st St., across from Walgreen's). Our goal is to provide a welcoming, supportive environment for players from first-timers to experts, focusing on the beauty and intellectual challenge of the game at least as much as on who's winning.  Anyone can learn to play, including children as young as fiv …

My wife and I just moved from the North Bay where I had a weekly D&D group to the East Bay (Concord) where we don't know anyone. I'm not interested in starting another D&D/RPG group, as it just eats up too much of my time/energy and my work schedule has become too unpredictable to allow me to play steady at a D&D table right now. I work at a Hotel and work some weird hours (swings and graveyards) and my days off can shift around. That's why I'm looking to start a more casual gaming group. This w …

This meet-up is to attract new members and supplement our large and established Facebook group where we post events. We meet once or twice a month to play.  Meet new people and kill them.  Always fun.  Come join us!

Hello, and welcome to the new site for Gamescape North's Game Designers Guild! We are a diverse group of gamers that all have two things in common, a love of board games, and the desire to go beyond just playing them. The Guild meetings are a place where local designers can playtest game prototypes, meet-n-greet each other, and discuss any or all aspects of board game design and manufacture. Everyone is welcome, whether you have your own game prototype, an idea for a game, or just want to get a …

Hey Scrabble fans! Let's get together and play a few games around the city. We can meet at bars, restaurants, coffee shops or outside in the park. All skill levels welcome, beginners included. I have a board and dictionary but feel free to bring your own!

SF Family Game Night is for anyone who loves to play games socially whether it's with your children, significant other, friends, or the new friends you make in this group! Let's step away from the technology for at least an hour each month to connect and laugh over fun board/card games. Blue Orange Games sponsors this Meetup group by providing games and other perks. I just want to clarify that I do work for them but I run this meetup and welcome games from all companies. If you work for a game c …

One of us! One of us! We created this group to chew gum and play games and we're all out of gum. No seriously we love playing table-top role playing, board-games and card games, etc and we wanted to get groups of folks together here who love doing the same thing. There's always new games and demos to try, and GM's looking for groups or groups that need a location on certain nights. On our Board-game night (Monday from 6pm to 10pm) we have a storage closet full of games & people are more then wel …

Calling all board game enthusiasts! Whether you're new to board games or have been playing them for years, let's get together and play & learn some games in and around Petaluma (plenty of coffee shops around, and hey, even breweries), and of course, get to know each other in the meantime! This is a new meetup group, so I'm open for suggestions about where this meetup group could go and what types of board games we could play - at this point, anything's "fair game" - haha. Once we have a few memb …

Have a strategic boardgame mechanic in your head? Want to get it to paper, create a prototype, develop rules, and create something not only playable but enjoyable and perhaps even marketable? Or do you want to interact with those who are actively developing, prototyping, playtesting - gaining access to unfinished designs before they hit the market? Then this group is for you! Together, we will discuss game theory, game ideas, design concepts, the process of prototyping, playtest existing designs …

This is a group for those who like playing Poker or Board Games. Meetup's can be specific to one activity or both depending on what's specified. Friendly Poker games will generally be $20 buy-in (that will increase as demand and Player size increases, so if you are looking for a little larger stakes you should still join the group). The skill level we are looking for is strictly amateur. We are looking to have fun not looking to make an income. If you are trying to hustle please move on as you w …

A group for fans of RPG such as Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinders to connect, meet, network, and start games with other local gamers and fans of Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinders and other Fantasy and SiFi based Role Playing Games. Good food, good fun, good company.........
