TtT: Castles Of Burgundy – 10th June 2025

This Week’s Feature Game is: The Castles of Burgundy

After over twelve years of running Tabletop Tuesday events, with a new game every week, there are very few of the modern classics that we have never added to the awesome library of games we have available to play. This is the 2019 version of the game that includes eight expansions. It is a bit on the long side, so, depending on interest we may have to run taster games (but one of our regulars is kindly bringing along their copy too, so we should be able to accommodate more people.

Join us this Tuesday, try out this excellent medieval build you princedom into a fully fledged kingdom and you could end up feeling like the king (or queen) of the castle by winning your own copy to take home to lord around your castle, just by trying out the game this Tuesday!

Last Week’s Feature Game is: Level 8: Super Mario

At Loading bar, where TtT takes place, we love a good videogame – even better for our Tabletop event in a videogame themed bar is a Tabletop game based on Super videogame! This week’s feature game, which you might win just by trying it out on the evening, is the Super Mario version of Level 8 – a family friendly set collection game.

Previous Week’s Feature Game: Dungeons, Dice & Danger

Dungeons, Dice & Danger, oh my! A Roll-and-Write dungeon crawler from the dangerous mind of the acclaimed, Richard Garfield sounds like a dangerously good idea that will make for a great game. Also a treasured prize for one lucky explorer who joins us this Tuesday evening to put pen to paper and try the game out on the evening.

Regular Features:

Note that every Tuesday we will now be featuring casual play for Star Wars Unlimited. Training also available for any Padawans looking to learn the game.
