Tabletop Library & More
Attendees can select from the MAGFest board games library of over 150+ games (80 unique titled games) and play their skills versus the best the festival offers. We have many games, from Cool Mini or Not, Fantasy Flight Games, and More!
The library has games that are competitive as well as cooperative—chase eldritch horrors through the streets of Arkham; build the most prosperous city in France with Carcassonne; Span the galaxy in Battlestar Galactica and Twilight Imperium; win a world war in Risk or Diplomacy; or make and end friendships over Catan or Ticket to Ride.
The board games area is also great for learning how to play and perfect strategies for games you may purchase for your home library. The MAGFest board games library offers you an opportunity to try before you buy, and our community can help you figure out how to play even the most obscure games.
