Vacation Spots

A Board Game Adventure Around the World (and Beyond!) 

Ready to explore unforgettable destinations without the cost of airfare? Join us for Vacation Spots, a free board game event where you'll learn to play exciting games, meet fellow travelers (aka players), win sweet candy prizes, and embark on tabletop adventures from the deserts of Mars to the coasts of Japan! Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just curious, this is your ticket to a fun-filled evening of discovery.

 Terraforming Mars: Strap in, pioneers—your next vacation is interplanetary! In Terraforming Mars, you and rival corporations work together (and against each other) to make the red planet habitable. You’ll manage resources, build cities, and unleash powerful projects to raise the oxygen, temperature, and water levels. It’s a game of long-term planning and engine-building with a sci-fi twist that’s surprisingly grounded in real science. Ready to stake your claim among the stars? The air might be thin, but the victory is sweet—if you can survive the competition!

Tokaido: Craving peace and beauty instead of power and pressure? Tokaido invites you to stroll the ancient East Sea Road of Japan, where the journey is the destination. You’ll collect souvenirs, eat delicious meals, visit temples, and soak in hot springs, all while competing to have the most enriching travel experience. The game’s elegant design and calming art make it deceptively chill—until someone nabs that sushi you were eyeing. Will your vacation be the most memorable? Step lightly and walk wisely!

Forbidden Desert: For the boldest of tourists, Forbidden Desert is the ultimate survival getaway. Your airship has crash-landed in a shifting wasteland, and it’s a race against time and sandstorms to rebuild and escape! This cooperative game throws intense decisions at every turn, as players rely on teamwork and clever strategy to survive brutal conditions. It’s tense, thrilling, and full of surprises—like discovering ancient tech beneath the dunes. Think you’ve got what it takes to make it out alive? Prove it, explorer!
