Board Game Demo - Things In Rings
2025-01-18 11:00 - 14:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Comic Quest, 23811 Bridger #111 CA 92630, Lake Forest, CA, 92630, United States
FREE Board Game Demo: Things In Rings
Saturday Jan 18 11am – 2pm
Comic Quest is providing FREE demos of a fun board game. Learn in a couple of minutes, it might be your next favorite game.
Also, a discount on the game!
In the center of the table, place the Rings and form a triple Venn diagram. Designate one player to be “The Knower.” The Knower knows the different logic rules for each Ring and will facilitate the game. All other players start with a hand of five object cards.
Depending on the Ring, the logic rules will be related to different characteristics, like spelling, grammar, physical properties, cultural relevance, or industry.
On your turn, place an object card from your hand into the Venn diagram. If it fits that ring’s rules, place another card. If it doesn’t fit the rules, “The Knower” moves the card to the right area. The player then draws another card.
The point of the game is to get rid of all of your cards. Can you figure out the Rings’ logic before your opponents? Don’t forget, you can play in the overlapping spots of the Venn diagram, or even outside it completely!

When do we play?

Wednesdays, 7-9pm
at Comic Quest (http://comicquest.org/)

How does this work?

Hello! We play D&D 5e on Wednesday nights, 7-9 pm, in-person at Comic Quest in Lake Forest. If you are looking to join one of CQ’s Wednesday night D&D 5e groups, here’s what you need to know.
First, join our Discord Server, which is the primary way that we organize and discuss regularly scheduled D&D groups and events. ** Once there, please look at Start Here for general information. Link to our Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD
No experience with D&D is required, but different tables and DMs may have preferences. If you are interested in learning how to play there are “learn to play” sessions approximately once a month.
Our games are frequently full. Whether there is room at any given table changes week to week, so you have to post a message on the channel of any table you think you might be interested in to see if there are currently openings, as priority goes to regularly attending players. Some tables have PINNED information about their campaigns (click on the push-pin looking icon on the top ribbon of each campaign). Also, we often run a 1-shot table which is open to new players.
Facebook Group
What do I need to play?
Please check in with the DM of the table/game you are joining for these details, but some helpful items:

A character sheet (either your own or the pre-generated)
A writing utensil (Pencil, Pen)
Appropriate dice for your character
Appropriate source material for your character (basic book, Players Handbook, ability cards, whatever floats your boat)
A miniature (optional, but helpful)

We also have a Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD](https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD?fbclid=IwAR3KLXW32PY__0KkFJjOwkw0HKpYYQMb-Cgr5HUSvDvXbl-SMZOmS0uaKXo)

Board Game Demo - Wilmot's Warehouse
2025-01-11 11:00 - 14:00 (Asia/Shanghai)
FREE Board Game Demo: Wilmot’s Warehouse

Saturday Jan 8 11am – 2pm
Comic Quest is providing FREE demos of a fun board game. Learn in a couple of minutes, it might be your next favorite game.
Also, a discount on the game!

In Wilmot’s Warehouse, your team will work co-operatively to organize the warehouse, using memory, imagination, and silly stories you make up.
Draw product tiles from the stack, discuss what they look like, and place them somewhere you’ll remember. After you place each tile, you flip it over and can’t look at it again until the end of the game, so your team has to remember where you’ve placed previous tiles as you decide where to place new ones.
At the end of the game, in a five-minute rush, your team has to match all 35 face-down tiles with customer cards. Consult your performance review to see how well you did!

Book Club - Batman - Santa Claus - Silent Knight
2025-01-04 12:00 - 13:00 (Asia/Shanghai)
New Book Club Selection

Each month we select a notable graphic novel for the book club. It is 25% Off to everyone all month. At the end of the month we meet to discuss.
This month’s selection is
Batman – Santa Claus: Silent Knight
by Jeff Parker (Author), Michele Bandini (Illustrator)

Meet up to discuss the book = Saturday January 4th. Noon. At the store.

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN!
A not-so-jolly St. Nick hits Gotham City to investigate a brutal crime in the days leading up to Christmas…What manner of man or beast could have committed such atrocities?! With the help of his former student, Batman, Santa will team up with the heroes of the DC Universe to right this wrong-or the world wakes up to coal in their stockings! A brutal, two-fisted holiday tale of hope, wonder, and monster hunting is the perfect treat to ring in the holidays-it’s Claus in canon!
