This new gaming holiday is needed. Actually playing board games in person, rather than than video games, computer games, or iOS games is important. Gaming the slow way promotes critical thinking and problem solving. No machine to assist in calculating strategies or the most points. 100% human brain power at work!
TableTop Day also spreads board gaming awareness. I have been gaming since I was born... Ok 5, but still. My first games were not the traditional Monopoly (barf!) I love sharing my gaming hobby in the hopes that new players will love it as much as I do!
Hope you had a great TableTop Day! Perhaps we should invent some lore to go along with this day, like Santa Claus or the Easter bunny?! I'm thinking the dice fairy or game gnome or something. Any thoughts?!
