Event details

Join our monthly talk and play meetups to make new friends, share your love of new releases, geek out over old favourites and be part of a safe and inclusive community.

NB: In order to create a safe space for under-represented people in the world of videogames, this club is exclusively for women, gender-non-conforming, trans, and non-binary folks.

Online events

The club meets via Discord on the second Wednesday of every month, except for January and December. Each session is led by host Claire Osborn-Li in gameplay and conversation. Join the Discord server to take part in the monthly meetups, chat with other members, and discover the upcoming games selected for discussion.

In-person events

These face-to-face quarterly meetups take place at ACMI and typically run on Saturdays, although the date and times can vary. The meetups are lightly catered and often feature special guests. Keep an eye on this webpage, Discord, and the Facebook group for details on the next live event.

What to expect

For the first 30 minutes of each event, the host will live-stream gameplay with some commentary. After that, we put down the controller and open up the floor for discussion. If conversation isn't for you, then you're welcome to listen or chat in the Discord channel.
