Last night at Bored Gamers, we got stuck into the game Forest Shuffle! One of the young people who attends the group regularly brought this game for us to play and it was really lovely. The aim of the game is to build the biggest and fullest forrest, filled with plenty of trees, animals and other assorted bigs, critters, mushrooms and shrubs. Highly recommend this game be added to any game night.
If you are a young person aged 12-24 and you like to play board games, please come along and play with us! We are on every second Wednesday from 3.30pm-5pm.
