Play Something New Demo Night - Collect!

Play Something New with us every Friday night!

Our Play Something New board game demo nights are a perfect opportunity to relax, learn a new game, and get involved with our ever-growing board gaming community! We will be featuring and teaching a different game each week.

Here’s How It Works:

Sign up for a Demo: We will have several tables of game demos for our Featured Game running from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm. Demo experiences will last around 30 minutes and will go over the basic rules of the game and several turns of play. Games may be limited to a certain number of turns/ rounds to allow for everyone to get a seat at a demo throughout the night. Demo sign-ups will cut off at 8:30.

Sale and Raffles: Our Featured Game will be on sale for 20% off during the event for anyone who participated in a demo! In addition, some open copies of the game will be raffled off once the demos are finished for the night.

Open Board Gaming: In addition to the demo…..hang out and play! Tables will be available for open board gaming until our Game Room closes up (around 9:45 pm). Bring some games with you to play or get in on a game with other board gamers. In addition, we will have some open copies of popular board games on hand to try during the event!

Cost: The cost for the event is a $10 “Credit Swap” (you’ll get $10 in store credit back with your entry!)

Tonight’s Featured Game: Collect!

"The king is gone, and the jungle is in chaos! With no one in charge, every animal is ready to claw, crawl, or chomp their way to the top. Only one can wear the crown; will it be you?

In Collect!, 2–5 players compete to form Alliances of animals in a fast-paced race for the crown. On your turn, draw and place cards into your row, aiming to line up four of the same animal. But watch out! Every animal comes with a sneaky special ability that can change the balance quickly. The Monkey might swap cards around, the Crab can crawl cards into place, the Crocodile will chomp away your plans, and the Chameleon...well, it’s whatever it wants to be today!

Outsmart your rivals, time your plays, and use a bit of luck to complete your Alliance and claim the crown before anyone else does. Win two Half Crowns, or go straight for the Full Crown to prove you’re the rightful ruler of the jungle.
Collect! is quick to learn, plays in about 15 minutes, and is packed with wild twists. With 8 unique animals and plenty of replayability, it’s a colorful card game that’s easy to take anywhere, and impossible to put down."
