This is a group for people who like to play party games that promote fun, socializing, and laughing. Some examples would be Pictionary, Taboo, Outburst, Guesstures, Apples to Apples, etc. This really isn't a group for the serious, complex, strategic type games. There are a ton of fun games out there and I would love to learn new ones. Everyone is welcome to bring their own games. If you love playing games and laughing and meeting new people this is the group for you.
