Game Club

Sitting with a friend in a café and sharing thoughts about what we’ve been playing over a cup (or two) of coffee is one of my favorite pastimes. That, coupled with my love of facilitating discussion and fostering communities, has led to a long-time goal of creating a book club, but for video games!

Each month, we’ll play a game together. Sometimes it’ll be newer, sometimes it’ll be older, and sometimes you may have even played it already! I will consider factors like cost, accessibility, how long to play, potential to provide discussion, the developers, and community interest. There's a weekly podcast and newsletter as well as a community Discord, and we encourage folks to participate as their lives allow. Perhaps one month you've got the time to hop in and answer the questions in Discord, while other months you just listen to the podcast as you play. It's meant to fit with your lifestyle: pick and choose what works best for you!

Anyone interested in learning more about themselves through what they play. Whether you’re familiar with games or are thinking about playing and don’t quite know where to start. Whether you feel comfy participating in discussions, or perhaps you’d like to start dipping your toes into articulating and sharing your thoughts about what you’ve played! This is a primarily asynchronous club, meaning you can participate when the time works for you within the month, but we’ll also have a dedicated hangout each month to talk through our reaction to each game in the official Discord.

Drop your email right here! You can also follow us on Twitter and Instagram for updates, and join the Discord to participate in forum discussions and the monthly hangout.
