Get everyone at the table for game night.
Some games need four players, some need six. Suggest a few evenings, share one link, and see which night fills the table.
Start a game night pollOpens with game night filled in: an evening, three hours long.
How to plan a board game night
- Know your player count. Pick the game, then you know how many people you need for the night to work.
- Offer a few evenings. Fridays and Saturdays are favorites; a weeknight works for shorter games.
- See who can come. Venn shows how many people can make each night, so you know which one fills the table.
- Pick the night. Everyone adds it to their calendar in a tap.
Tips for a great game night
-
Say what you’ll play
Put the game in the note, so people can learn the rules or bring their copy.
-
Allow for long games
Three hours is a good default; make it longer for a campaign or a heavy game.
-
Sort snacks in the note
Who brings drinks, who brings chips, and whose table it is.
-
Make it a regular thing
Duplicate the poll each month from its organizer tools.
