Are you interested in board games, video games, networking and meeting new people? Join us and connect with fellow gamers from across the Melbourne Connect community, including partners, researchers, staff, and students.

Enjoy an evening of dice rolling, card shuffling, role playing, controller smashing and friendly competition as you vie for victory. Challenge the masterminds of Melbourne Connect and see who can outsmart their opponents.

With a variety of games available to suit all styles and interests, you are sure to find something to enjoy. We will also be hosting a role playing game - Blood on the Clock Tower, see below for more details. If you wish to take part in this game, please register for that ticket.
You do not need to register for both tickets.

Role playing game:
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder and mystery, lies and logic, deduction and deception for courageous players and one devious storyteller.

A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know.
The game will start at 6pm sharp.
Please make sure to arrive on time if you are taking part.
