Board Games & Puzzles
I've been introduced to Board Games via Karan, my flatmate in Mumbai who had no less than a hundred games in his collection back then. As I've moved out later on, the hobby didn't grow on me due to lack of opportunities.
Almost 3 years later, I've moved to Bangalore and when looking for avenues to meet new people, get new hobbies, I come across reroll.in
I've been a regular there, until pandemic and went almost every week to attend and play some games. I've also spread it to few other dear friends of mine. By the time pandemic hit us, I've already owned a couple of games that we'd casually play at home. During the course of covid, I've bought various games and grew my own collection to a humble twenty plus.
The games have various kinds of mechanisms, different levels of complexity and impressionable amount of deception. There are quite a few lessons learned and applied tactics that evolved me as a person.
As time progressed, I've expanded the circles of friends as well as gamers. The interesection is quite big lately! I host frequently in HSR at StoryZone , an arts community space started by Nisha.
