Local meeple hosts board-game day
"I want people to break away from the digital world for a while by putting them into another world."
On Saturday, 12 August, board-gamers from all over Krugersdorp gathered around a table, chose their weapons and got their game on.
This board-game day was hosted by none other than Erik Dreyer, founder of Meeting Meeples. With approximately 150 unique board games and 12 different categories to choose from, it was a spectacular gaming adventure for those who participated.
Some of the game categories include cooperative, family, hobby, classics and ‘just for two’ games.
“I want people to break away from the digital world for a while by putting them into another world. I want to get family and friends to make time and interact with each other again,” he said.
On this day, the gamers did just that when they battled the boards together.
“I am thrilled that these people were able to come and see what the Meeple world is all about. I’m hoping to see them again in future,” Erik said.
He is looking forward to introducing more people to board-gaming and trusts that it will stimulate young minds.
