  No they’re horrible environments for meeting on socializing with other people.

  If you’ve ever been to a socializing board game night, you would be aware that there’s effectively zero chance to communicate, talk, have a conversation - a group of people can’t focus on two things at once.

    We must be going to different ones because there’s loads of down-time in most games and people would have a smoke break and just hang out with food and drinks post games.

    Board game cafes is my 1st choice for social connections when arriving to a new country and I make friends every time.
