We had another strong showing of people for the second round of our US Catan Championship qualifier series. Later this year, the winner will get to move on to the Origins Game Fair in Ohio for a chance to be crowned the US Catan Champion. If you have never tried Catan and are wondering what all the fuss is about, come on out to Game Point and our game coaches will have you up and running in no time.
There’s a new signature drink available at Game Point now – the Winter Wonderland! It’s a latte with white chocolate, lavender, peppermint, and topped with dark chocolate shavings. The Winter Wonderland is available both iced and hot. It’s delicious and the perfect pick me up on a cold icy winter evening.
Speaking of icy, while you are enjoying that Winter Wonderland, try out Ice Cool! In Ice Cool, you assume the role of a penguin during a massive game of tag going on in your ice school. Run away from the hall monitor and gather your fish first and you’ll be the coolest bird around. This fun dexterity game actually uses the box as the game board – you need to try it yourself.
Our game coach will be happy to teach you Ice Cool or any other of our close to 300+ games. So come in grab a Winter Wonderland and a table and get ready for a fun night!
Throughout the month of December, Game Point will be collection donations of new and gently used games to donate to Safe Haven Family Shelter. Safe Haven is the only shelter to housing program in Middle Tennessee that accepts entire families. The donations made to this drive will be used to augment the other entertainment options for the children that arrive at the shelter with their family when experiencing a housing crisis.
Charterstone is a new Legacy style game from Stonemaier Games for 1-6 players. “Legacy Style” means that a game is altered as it is played based on the decisions of the players or by the outcomes of previous games. Players change the experience by altering, adding or destroying game pieces, changing the rules, or marking up the board to change how the game fundamentally plays. In Charterstone, you are a citizen tasked with expanding the kingdom’s borders. Over the course of 12 games you will create a unique worker placement game that then can be played again and again. The game will hit the shelves on December 12th. We are accepting preorders now for Charterstone ($52 preorder price) to ensure you get a copy the first day, email us your order at games@gamepointcafe.com.
