Alert! September Library Meetup Roundup!

Things got a little raucous at yesterday’s September Library Meetup! One of our members brought a copy of Space Alert, the real-time cooperative survival game of sailing through space while a CD soundtrack warns you that you’re about to get blown up by aliens. Each game runs about ten minutes, and while I didn’t get the details, it sounds like the intrepid space explorers did pretty well.

I didn’t get a picture of the Space Alert game, but I did get this Star Munchkin picture instead. That’s in space too

Turnout was excellent, with about fifteen players and lot of classic games on the table. One group took on the Africa board for Ticket to Ride, while I found out just how successful a no-brick strategy is in Settlers of Catan. (Answer: not very.)

Intrepidly exploring Africa, which is not in Space.

Other games played included 7 Wonders, Carcassonne, Dominion, Star Munchkin, and Zombie Dice. A good time was (hopefully) had by all, and our next library meetup is just a few weeks away on October 27! Spooky games, anyone?

My kingdom for some bricks. Seriously, what’s a guy gotta do to get some bricks around here?!?!?
