2020 ISN'T ALL BAD--WE PROMISE!!
It has been a tough year. Life as we know it changed. Our health, families, jobs, finances, sense of community, and so much more have been in crisis. We have suffered losses and hardships that are sobering. At the same time as we acknowledge this, we also know that we are privileged and remain grateful, even without any events this year. We are hopeful for a return in 2021 (tl;dr: we're hoping for the weekend of Pax 2021), and have included more details about that at the end of this message. However, the main purpose of THIS email is to CELEBRATE A SUCCESS STORY from 2020. Calliope Games, our number one sponsor, and without whom FTW Events would not exist, has put together a new game lineup that is impressive, even by their standards. They've done it all in spite of the pandemic, and we are therefore proud to partner with them in presenting to you...
Celebrate an evening packed with excitement and fun challenges for all! During your game night, you’ll build peacock plumes of vivid colors! You’ll cooperate to construct a transit system and deliver commuters home. And in tales of epic lore, you’ll bid to win, but may lose if you do! And, if you act fast, you can get ALL THREE OF THESE GAMES for just 40 bucks!
The Calliope Game Night Extravaganza! Kickstarter Campaign ends on December 12 and includes three amazing new card games: Allegory, Enchanted Plumes, and Mass Transit.
