Games Night

Board games night is the second Thursday of each month, from 6pm at Tonic By the Bay - remember to check our Calendar of Events to confirm details.

If you are new to our board games night and feeling a little unsure about coming along, don't stress — our games are fun, easy to learn, and we’re always happy to explain the rules as we go. The games we will play will depend on a few factors, such as the number of players, but here are a few of our favourites, with links to help you explore them beforehand:

🐑 Battle Sheep

A light, tactical game where you split your stack of sheep and try to claim the biggest pasture.

🎨 Azul

A beautifully designed tile-drafting game where you build intricate patterns like a mosaic artist.

🏰 Carcassonne

Place tiles to build medieval cities, roads, and fields – and score points as your world grows! Carcassonne has many different expansions but the basic game is quite easy to learn.

🕰 Timeline

Test your knowledge by placing historical events, inventions or pop culture moments in the right order.

🏡 For Sale

A quick and clever auction game where you bid on properties and try to resell them for the most money. Fast, fun, and full of bluffing!

Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just curious, you're welcome to join in. There's no pressure to play – you're also welcome to come watch, learn at your own pace, or just hang out and enjoy the vibes.
