In case you missed it, America is in the middle of a board game boom! A generation ago, a culture of video games dominated, but with so much of our lives spent using screens, face-to-face board games are truly bringing people together again. And, games aren’t just for kids anymore. There are board games for everyone – and great resources to find out which ones are actually worth your time! On Tuesday, August 13^th, the Shanghai American Center’s Consulate Speaker Series will go beyond the American classic, Monopoly, which was first patented in 1935, to present today’s board gaming sensations, including a genre of Eurogames. Join us for an interactive presentation by summer interns, Hope Parker and Zack Garrote, to learn more about board game lingo and America’s cultural obsession with games emphasizing strategy and co-operation over conflict and luck..
