April 15th – 21st

Hampshire Valley Con is the weekend of the 27th! Why not take a look at the future of games in a delightful little convention?

April 1st – 7th

Don’t forget to head to Easthampton for Wednesday Games at the Brass Cat this week! It’s always a good time for everyone. No better place to find other folks to play a good game with. Speaking of board games you still have some time to hop on the Root: Underworld expansion Kickstarter! It’s the best way to grab Root for cheap (well not ‘Cheap’, but like ‘good value’ because it’s just 100% of all stuff from the base game and two expansions) right now! We love the game, we wish we could play it more often, and we can’t recommend it enough.

March 11th – 17th

Something important to check out next week! Comics N’ More’s “Move On Up” party! On March 24th at 2:00PM to 4:30PM at Galaxy [60 Main St, Easthampton, Massachusetts 01027]! You can go to a great party to support a great local comic shop! There will be a silent auction too which is great!

March 4th – 10th

Today is Play Anything: Board Games at the Deuce! It starts at 1:30pm and you should definitely check it out, it’s an all-day sort of thing and it’s a great time. You can play a bunch of the boardgames that need like 8 other people! Today is also a great day to head over to see a presentation at the wonderful Another Castle co-working space at 7pm – 9pm. MAKE TALK PLAY | The Importance of Art Direction: A look at Mario Odyssey

Feb 25th – March 3rd

Comics N’ More is moving! They’re going to a better space that is not in a basement, which is a real improvement over basically any basement. We’re sure there are nice basements and all, but generally you want to exist above ground while you do business. There’s just something about having the option to have windows that brightens up a space.

Feb 18th – 24th

Since we haven’t told you to do so in a while, it is a good idea to support excellent local charitable organization The Northampton Survival Center! They do good work providing food to people in need in our community. It’s a terrible thing that anyone in the Valley goes hungry, and it’s good to alleviate it if you can.

Feb 11th – Feb 17th

This week the big news is Nerd Nite NoHo! Go to it, because it’s a good time for you and yours! World War 2 Club! 50 Conz Street! From 7:00pm – 9:00pm! Be there and be square!

Feb 4th – Feb 10th

You should head to Nerd Nite NoHo next Monday at the WW2 Club! It’s a super good plan because Nerd Nite is always a fun way to learn something interesting and meet new people. This coming Monday, the 11th, the talks will be ‘Et tu Brute? Intuitive User Design Meets Brutalism’ and ‘Five Fascinating Fungi Found Fruiting in our Forests’ Oh dang nicely done fungi person!

Jan 28th – Feb 3rd

The Valley Nerd Watch! The Global Game Jam is this weekend, and at the Another Castle co-working space in Greenfield folks have been spending the past dozens of hours making interesting games!

Jan 21st – 27th

It’s two straight days of fun times where you work on a game start to finish in a short time. Usually the things that […]
