They also have Catan, a favourite among enthusiasts due to its concept of building your own cities and trading resources. They also have a complimentary croissant or puff and tea or coffee for participants, if they feel like a snack.
What started as a board game meet in a cafe in Vile Parle, now aims to spread awareness about the niche market for the activity, 29-year-old Allan D'Souza, co-founder of The Board Room, which is organising the event, tells us. "People are engrossed on their phones in today's digital age. Even when you are gaming, you don't get to see the person's reaction. It's not interactive and there's no face-to-face communication, which is the need of the hour. Such activities induce a healthy competitive spirit. We're trying to build a community that knows that the activity is much more than just Ludo and Snakes and Ladders," he adds.
