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 …

I love to play rod hockey. The trouble has been finding anyone who can give me a good game; or any game at all! I've been playing since I was five years old and there is only one person in my circles of friends who will play me, and he lives in Humboldt County! Without rod hockey I wouldn't understand trash-talk! Honestly …

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 …
