We're playing a lot of games. Some titles that will probably hit the table across the three days of our event (for a total of 24 hours) include:
Alien Frontiers Apples to Apples Battle Line BSG Express Can't Stop Carcassonne Clabber Cribbage Dixit Elder Sign Euchre Forbidden Island Hab & Gut Identik Kill Doctor Lucky Liar's Dice Lost Cities Monopoly Deal Pandemic The Parsely series (Action Castle, Return to Action Castle, Blackboard Jungle, Jungle Adventure, Spooky Manor, Space Station) Pitchcar Puzzle Strike 2nd Edition Rallyman San Juan Save Doctor Lucky Snow Tails Space Hulk: Death Angel The Resistance Tikal Top Secret Spies Torres Werewolf Wise and Otherwise Wits and Wagers Party edition (actually, this is the game that we're going to play during the dinner on Saturday with each table being a team) Zooloretto There will be multiple people playing and others coming in to play and make donations, so a lot of different games should hit the table.
