Board Game Playtesting

  • Guildhouse 420 South First Street San Jose, CA, 95113 United States (map)
  • Come to Guildhouse, San Jose's coolest gaming venue to playtest some games in development! It's a really great space and we're going to start holding regular events here. Starting at once a month, then maybe moving more frequent if attendance is good.

  • VACCINE REQUIRED. We encourage attendees to wear masks while not eating or drinking.

  • It's a relaxed chance to try new board games and card games, get feedback on your own prototypes, and get advice on the games industry. New designers and interested players welcome!

  • Please be courteous to other designers and stay to test their games if you are bringing your prototype to be tested. If you are bringing a prototype game, try to comment below with a quick blurb including player count and time, and when you think you might arrive at Guildhouse.

    ex. "Ticket to Ride is a lightweight game about building train routes. 2-5 players, 30-60 minutes"

  • Point of contact and organizer: John Brieger
