About:
The University of Plymouth Games Society is one of the oldest (we have existed before the university) and largest societies with a broad range of members from those who've been gaming for years to those who have only ever played monoply.
The University of Plymouth Games Society is a society that focuses on anything you play on a table.Be it, Trading Card Games (Magic the Gathering), Board Games (Settlers of Catan, Werewolf, etc), Table Top Wargaming (Warhammer), or even role playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder.
Any and all skill levels are welcome, even if you have never played any of this before this is the society that can get you started!
Events & Socials:
We will be hosting a wide range of socials which can range from get togethers for game soc related events, online quiz nights, drinking nights or even movie nights. We play Magic the gathering online or at The Venue (one of Plymouth's game shops).
We host and organise several Dungeon and Dragon pitches throught the year. At these events a variety of Dungeon Matsers will pitch thier campaigns to prospecrtive players. This is designed to let you listen to a variety of different campaigns and find the setting that intrests you the most. This will also result in an automatically generated playgroup for the campaign. If you are interested in DM'ing a campaign please contact the committee.
We also run events designed to teach people how to play some of the games played at the society, dont hesitate to ask our members or commitee for an introductory session.
