Meet with local professional and aspiring video game developers who are interested in experimenting new ways to develop video games.

Meet nearby Party Game Players! This group is designed for adults (sort-of) who enjoy games like Pictionery, Scattergories, Password, and Charades. Very easy rules and a nice, intimate setting where we keep score but nobody loses.  Typically, we stick to PARTY games and not card or board games. It's more constant action for everybody, and, I believe, lends itself to more goofiness!    MAKE TIME FOR FUN!!

Games bring people together and sharpen the senses.  They promote comraderie and much a creativity.  Our mission is to bring together gamers of all skill levels and social comfortableness, and turn it into a positive experience.

Let's play games!  Board games (the old ones; Scrabble, Monopoly, Sorry, etc.) card games, and whatever.  Just going out to have fun and maybe a little dinner and spirits.   We'll mainly meet either on Tuesday nights at Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill, or Monday nights at Bowman's Tavern & Grill.  We're also open to suggestions. You can either arrive at the posted time for dinner and drinks, or about an hour later to join us for games.  Drinking while playing is strongly encouraged. :)  Pl …

We play various strategy boardgames, also called "Eurogames" or "designer games". If you aren't familiar with that terminology, you may recognize a few of the most popular titles, like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Dominion, Ticket to Ride, Puerto Rico, Agricola, Ra, and Race for the Galaxy. We are extremely happy to have beginners! Whether you are new to our group, or new to Euro games (or both!), we will help you to find a game that you will enjoy :) If you have a specific game you wish to p …

Welcome to the only group for Dance Video Games in the entire Meetup.com website! Dance video games are music/rhythm video games that encourage movement by directing steps and grading accuracy. Popular dance games include Dance Dance Revolution, In The Groove, and Pump It Up. Each dance game is different in game play and songs, so we plan meetings to highlight each game. Everyone from Chicago, the surrounding suburbs, and visitors are welcome. It doesn't matter if you are an expert, just …

International Game Developer's Association (IGDA) Chicago is a local chapter of a much larger, international, non-profit membership organization serving individuals who create video games. We bring together developers at conferences, in local chapters and in special interest groups to improve their lives and craft. Developers, aspiring developers, students, or people who just love games are welcome to attend our meetups, game jams, classes, panels, and everything else!

While we all play games for our body's health & fitness, few of us play games for our brain's health & fitness.  But recent medical research says we should. It shows that there are 3 important contributors to brain fitness:    (1) eating the right food & nutrition;    (2) maintaining physical activity & exercise; and    (3) playing super fun games with others. The first two are easy enough to do, but where and how can you play super fun games with others?  Easy: Thinkers' Toys. What are Thin …
