Sacramento Games Portal

Board games, cards, RPG, LARP, CCGs, strategy, trivia, miniatures, etc.

Welcome!

Your one-stop resource for playing table-top games & meeting gamers in Sacramento County!

Whether your thing is classic board games, new strategy games, Euro-board games, party games, cards, CCGs, RPGs, trivia or miniature wargames, if you live in or near Sacramento County, Calif., this is the place to find a local group, store or club right for you!

The sites below will help you find fellow gamers, try out some new games, and generally have a great time.  

We have at least one gaming event each week, both "open gaming" nights (bring-your-own-fave-games) and game-specific events (i.e. Scrabble or Magic the Gathering, etc.).

Event calendars and info about these meetings and the game-specific gatherings can be found at the sites below.   Many also have email list-servs or bulletin boards to communicate with local fellow gamers. 

Have fun exploring,  and hope you can join us!

Sac Boardames meeting locations

We can be found playing a variety of games every Tuesday night, starting at 6 pm, at Crepeville on 18th and L St., midtown Sacramento.  Feel free to stop by and join in on the fun! Open 'til 11 pm and open to the public!

The community room of the Arden-Dimick branch of the Sacramento Library on certain (usually last) Saturdays is also a common meeting place for some of us.  Again, check http://www.meetup.com/sacramento-boardgamers/ for the latest schedule.

Heroes Alley, Empires Comic Vault and Great Escape Games, both in the Arden area,  often have special gaming events: check their store schedules. 

Some of the game-specific groups meet at other locations in Sacramento; see their sites and groups (links below) for details.  And occasionally you can find private game parties listed on the sites, at members' homes.

Most events are open to the public, but some require RSVPs and have size limits.

Again, details about the events and their locations can be found on the below sites, or feel free to contact the organizers below if you still have questions.
