Wednesday Game Night: Pot luck and Games Galore! (4/8)

Hummingbirds!

Between 1210 and 1234, the Mongols under Genghis Khan were at war with the Jin Dynasty. On this day in 1232, they began their their siege on Kaifeng, the capital of the Jin dynasty. Maybe if they’d gotten together for a fun evening of food-sharing, they would have gotten along better! Bring some food to share and we’ll start the dinner siege at 6pm at LCC, (2025 S Goebbert Road, Arlington Heights). Join us, won’t you?

Upcoming Special Event Nights:

We’re trying something new — special event nights! Some weeks, we’ll have something special in addition to our usual open gaming, fun movies, and more.

  • Potluck! (4/8) – Take part in the great Midwest tradition! Bring food, share food, enjoy.
  • Birthday Celebration (4/15) – On the third Wednesday of each month, we celebrate the birthdays for the month. Born in April? Know someone born in April? Like Cake? This will be your night.

Do you have an idea for a special toggle night? Let us know what you’re thinking about!

Play to win!

Toggle sometimes has extra copies of games that we already have in the library, or games that people have donated. We’ve introduced a new ‘play to win’ table. Play a game on the play to win table. The winner, or someone else who played if they already have a copy, takes the game home!

This week, it’s the classic undead-fightin’ gore-fest: ZOMBIES!!!

On the Table

Recently at toggle, we’ve played Dorformantik: Sakura; Cartographers; Gizmos; Bomb Busters; Arkham Horror: The Card Game; Hummingbirds; Werewords; and more!

Some games we played last week

Things to Expect at Toggle Gaming:

  • A Huge library – try games from our library of 400+ titles or bring your own!
  • Bring Food and Drinks – Our host, LCC, allows us to bring whatever food and drink we like, as long as we clean up after ourselves. Sometimes we arrange specific food events (see above for details).
  • A Welcoming Environment – We at [toggle Gaming] welcome anyone and everyone to our game table. Whether you’re new to the hobby or a die-hard grognard, we’d love for you to join us!
  • Designers ahoy – We have quite a few designers who come to [toggle Gaming] with prototypes to try. Maybe you’ll play the next CANVAS in prototype form!

Planning your evening:

Feel free to come as you are and jump into games on the fly, or head over to our Facebook Community page to see what people are planning to play next week. Maybe even add your own game to the list!
