A locally owned board game café in downtown Kearney bringing people together through tabletop games, handcrafted drinks, and a welcoming space.

The adventure is taking shape. 🎲☕

It’s amazing what a little time, a lot of work, and maybe just a touch of magic can do.

We’ve pulled up the old carpet and uncovered the original wood floors hiding underneath. The bathroom and service counter have been built, primer is going up, and—finally!—paint has started hitting the walls.

And then there’s the entryway ceiling…

We’ve started filling it with boards from games, and we are loving watching this idea come to life. Every piece makes the space feel a little more like Board & Bean.

There’s still plenty of work ahead, but for the first time, it’s becoming easier to look around and see the café we’ve been imagining all along.

Swipe through to see where we started—and where we are now. ❤️

We’re getting closer. We’ll save you a seat.

Volunteer opportunities to help make our community more vibrant!

⚔️ **Feature Friday** ⚔️

Gather 'round, brave adventurers... for not every member of the mining party can be trusted.

⛏️ **Saboteur** ⛏️

Deep beneath the mountains lies a fortune in glittering gold—but someone among your party has other plans.

Will you work together to carve a path to the treasure, or secretly undermine your fellow miners with broken tools, collapsed tunnels, and clever deception?

In **Saboteur**, every card played reveals a little more about the mine... and a little less about who you can trust. Alliances shift, suspicions grow, and the biggest smile at the table might belong to the one secretly ruining everyone's plans.

🪙 Great for adventurers who enjoy:
• Hidden roles
• Bluffing and deception
• Quick strategy
• Plenty of laughs and friendly accusations

👥 Players: 3–10
⏳ Play Time: 30 Minutes
🎂 Ages: 8+

So... who among your guild can you trust?

Or perhaps the better question is...

**Who is the Saboteur?** ⛏️👀

Gather your guild, sharpen your pickaxes, and remember—sometimes the greatest danger isn't the mountain... it's the adventurer sitting beside you.

⚔️ **Feature Friday** ⚔️

The bells toll... the stars have aligned... and something ancient stirs beneath the realm.

👁️ **Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu** 👁️

This is no ordinary quest.

Dark cultists spread their influence across the land while unspeakable horrors creep ever closer to awakening the Great Old One. Your fellowship must stand together, seal the gates, battle unimaginable monsters, and keep your sanity intact before the world is consumed by madness.

Unlike many adventures where every hero fights for themselves, this is a tale of cooperation. Victory belongs only to those who work as one... if the darkness doesn't claim them first.

🛡️ Perfect for adventurers who enjoy:
• Cooperative gameplay
• Strategic planning
• Lovecraftian horror
• High-stakes decisions
• Saving the world together

👥 Players: 2–4
⏳ Play Time: 40–60 Minutes
🎂 Ages: 14+

Will your fellowship banish the horrors and preserve the realm...
..or will your names be forgotten as the world falls to the Old Ones?

Gather your bravest companions, keep your wits about you, and remember:

**Some quests are not meant to be faced alone.** ⚔️🐙

⚔️ Feature Friday ⚔️

The Society calls. Will you answer?

🚀 **Red Rising** 🚀

In the far reaches of the future, noble houses vie for power, influence, and control of the Solar System. Through cunning schemes, unlikely alliances, and carefully played hands, players recruit iconic characters from the world of *Red Rising* and build the most powerful network in the realm.

But beware, adventurers...

The card you surrender today may be the very one your rival needs tomorrow.

🛡️ Great for players who enjoy:
• Strategic decision-making
• Hand management
• Building powerful combinations
• Beautiful artwork and immersive themes
• Games that are easy to learn but reward clever planning

⏳ Play Time: 45–60 Minutes
👥 Players: 1–6
🎂 Ages: 14+

Will you rise through the ranks and claim your place among the Golds?

Or will your ambitions be left drifting among the stars?

Gather your house, choose your allies wisely, and discover why *Red Rising* has become a favorite among strategy gamers.

🌟 Have you played Red Rising? Tell us which faction you would trust with the fate of the realm... and which you absolutely would not. 🌟
