Board Game & Social Events
Board Game Room
Looking for a game tournament,
a pick-up game, or just want to chill?
Come to the Board Games Room.
The Board Games Room is the social hub of our Relaxicon weekend.
Bring some games you love, or come play one of ours.
Or, you can sit around and watch, craft, chat, or just chill out.
We’ll have attendants on hand throughout the weekend to run events, suggest a game, help you find other players, or teach you a game.
Tournaments in Hearts and Catan, late night runnings of Blood on the Clock Tower, and a Mysterium Salon are planned. Plus, a sampling of pick-up games include CodeNames, Sentinels of the Multiverse, Wingspan, Love Letter, The Crew, Yahtzee and more. No advanced sign-ups are necessary.
The Days of Knights is sponsoring some of the games and tournaments, as well as providing prizes for organized gaming events in the Board Game Room. A big THANK YOU to DOKs for their continuing support.
Blood on the Clocktower
On the Stroke of Midnight...
During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day.
Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder and mystery, lies and logic, deduction and deception for a group of courageous players and one devious storyteller.
A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village.

Catan is a classic board game that brilliantly blends strategy and luck. It's perfect for tables of 4 players to compete for resources to "Trade, Build and Settle."
Each player will compete in 2 games.
Prizes awarded to top score/s. Sponsored by The Days of Knights.
Hearts are Wild!
Break some hearts with us!
We’re going back to a cards classic with a hearts tournament!
Whether you're a life-long lover of the game who can shoot the moon every round or a beginner who wants to learn more, you’ll have a great time breaking hearts and avoiding the dreaded Black Widow.
The number of rounds/tables/etc. will be based on sign ups, so put your name in the ring for a not-quite-cutthroat (but probably still competitive) time!
When signing up, please indicate:
Whether you are Beginner (what's this about a moon?), Intermediate (I've been known to shoot the moon now and then), or Hearts Master (The moon is my summer home).
A Prize has been donated
by The Days of Knights for the Hearts Champion!

Join us in lighting the (electronic) candles, opening the third eye, and busting out our copies of Mysterium, the board game. We will provide a copy of classic Mysterium and Mysterium Park as well as some excellent otherworldly vibes (aka music, ambience, light decor). Players are invited to dress as a fortune teller, circus performer, or one of the canon characters from the games.
Extra copies of the game and your best impression of Professor Trelawney are welcome!
