Come Play “Blood on the Clocktower”
Join Guest Gamer Guide Matt as he takes you through the thrilling social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower!
In the quiet village of Ravenswood Bluff, a demon walks amongst you...
During a hellish thunderstorm, on the stroke of midnight, there echoes a bone-chilling scream. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the town storyteller murdered, their body impaled on the hands of the clocktower, blood dripping onto the cobblestones below. A Demon is on the loose, murdering by night and disguised in human form by day. Some have scraps of information. Others have abilities that fight the evil or protect the innocent. But the Demon and its evil minions are spreading lies to confuse and breed suspicion. Will the good townsfolk put the puzzle together in time to execute the true demon and save themselves? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful village?
Blood on the Clocktower is a bluffing game enjoyed by 5 to 20 players on opposing teams of Good and Evil, overseen by a Storyteller player who conducts the action and makes crucial decisions. The goal of the game is to successfully deduce and execute the demons before they outnumber the townfolk.
During a 'day' phase players socialize openly and whisper privately to trade knowledge or spread lies, culminating in a player's execution if a majority suspects them of being Evil. Of a 'night' time, players close their eyes and are woken one at a time by the Storyteller to gather information, spread mischief, or kill.
The Storyteller uses the game's intricate playing pieces to guide each game, leaving others free to play without a table or board. Players stay in the thick of the action to the very end even if their characters are killed, haunting Ravenswood Bluff as ghosts trying to win from beyond the grave.
If you arrive late to a game, you can enter after it's started as a powerful Traveller character with unusual talents and questionable allegiances. Each character comes with their own special ability and no two players in a game are ever the same character.
Blood on the Clocktower is free with your paid admission.
Sensory Friendly Hours
Come play during our sensory friendly hours - no music, no loud games and no loud talking.
Enjoy some time to yourself, or bring a friend or two for some chill play time.

Village Meeple’s Solo Retreat
This world is crazy, full of noise and to-do lists and yelling.
We thought we would try something new to help you recenter.
Village Meeple’s Solo Retreat is a quiet, calming event where you can come to reset and chill in a safe and good energy space (without going far or paying an arm and a leg).
On Saturday, Sept. 26, from 10am to 2pm, the cafe will be closed for the event. Participants will have their choice of a plethora of solo games, puzzles, and books for you to quietly participate in. As talking is limited, you aren’t forced to interact or be “on”. You get to just be.
Cost is $20 and comes with a custom tote bag that we are so pumped about!! Space is limited as we don’t want the cafe crowded. The Rolling Meeple Food Trailer will be available, and participants get 20% off their lunch.

DEMO: Reef & Ruins
Join our Demo Queen Saunsu as she demos Reef & Ruins!
Hydras & Otters team up to unlock satisfying combos while exploring reefs and ship ruins for treasure in Reef & Ruins, a Roll & Write that gives you the satisfaction of a crunchy large sheet, small font Roll & Write spatial puzzle engine builder in a smaller, quicker, more approachable manor.
There’s one die for each head of the Hydra, either for them to venture into shipwrecks to search for treasure, work together to enchant their treasure, or send otters to the reef to get pearls. Each head of the hydra typically wants to do something different, but they occasionally can agree to work together, for hydra’s sake.
At the start of each game, players will choose Ship Ruins, Enchantments, and Reef sheets and all compete to unearth the most valuable items. Players play simultaneously, each choosing between sending their hydras into the ruins for treasure, their otters to enchant the treasures, or to send both into the reef to gain bonuses there. After 18 rounds, players figure out the values of their found treasures, then enchant them for more points, then add in any reef benefits. The game ends before players will be able to finish everything, so they must make the best choices for what Ruins to complete, how many enchantments to work on, and when to go searching the Reef for pearls!
Reef & Ruins is a roll and write standalone game set in the Wicked & Wise universe.

Come Play “Blood on the Clocktower”
Join Guest Gamer Guide Noah as he takes you through the thrilling social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower!
In the quiet village of Ravenswood Bluff, a demon walks amongst you...
During a hellish thunderstorm, on the stroke of midnight, there echoes a bone-chilling scream. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the town storyteller murdered, their body impaled on the hands of the clocktower, blood dripping onto the cobblestones below. A Demon is on the loose, murdering by night and disguised in human form by day. Some have scraps of information. Others have abilities that fight the evil or protect the innocent. But the Demon and its evil minions are spreading lies to confuse and breed suspicion. Will the good townsfolk put the puzzle together in time to execute the true demon and save themselves? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful village?
Blood on the Clocktower is a bluffing game enjoyed by 5 to 20 players on opposing teams of Good and Evil, overseen by a Storyteller player who conducts the action and makes crucial decisions. The goal of the game is to successfully deduce and execute the demons before they outnumber the townfolk.
During a 'day' phase players socialize openly and whisper privately to trade knowledge or spread lies, culminating in a player's execution if a majority suspects them of being Evil. Of a 'night' time, players close their eyes and are woken one at a time by the Storyteller to gather information, spread mischief, or kill.
The Storyteller uses the game's intricate playing pieces to guide each game, leaving others free to play without a table or board. Players stay in the thick of the action to the very end even if their characters are killed, haunting Ravenswood Bluff as ghosts trying to win from beyond the grave.
If you arrive late to a game, you can enter after it's started as a powerful Traveller character with unusual talents and questionable allegiances. Each character comes with their own special ability and no two players in a game are ever the same character.
Blood on the Clocktower is free with your paid admission.
Sensory Friendly Hours
Come play during our sensory friendly hours - no music, no loud games and no loud talking.
Enjoy some time to yourself, or bring a friend or two for some chill play time.

This town is filled with creatives and we’re thrilled to give them a platform to educate, entertain, or simply share their knowledge and experiences with our community.

Open use of our game library for the day. You can come early or play after the workshop.
You bring the curiosity and we’ll provide the possibilities!
Death Quests: A workshop for playful end-of-life planning
Join death doula Cecily Robertson for an evening of morbidly curious conversations sparked by The Death Deck. With thought-provoking questions like: “How do you think you’ll die?” “Would you read your late spouse’s journals?” and “If you could haunt someone after death, who would it be and why?” we will tackle taboo topics with a sense of play. The goal is to gain a clearer idea of what you value in life so you can plan for your death with authenticity and creativity. After we shuffle through the cards, Cecily will provide some education on why end-of-life planning is so important, what your end-of-life plan might include, and how to approach death planning with a bit of play.
Cecily Robertson is a death doula with a gentle spirit and tireless heart. Her approach to end-of-life work is rooted in storytelling. She created The Last Chapter Deathcare to guide and support people as they explore, uncover, and move through life and death as a creative process. Cecily works to improve death literacy in our community by co-hosting the Springfield Death Café and local death contemplation workshops. She is NEDA-proficient, a graduate of Going with Grace, and serves people and pets in the greater Springfield, Missouri area. You can follow her @lastchapterdeathcare, visit her website lastchapterdeathcare.com, or read her musings about death and grief at cecilyrobertson.substack.com.
Sign up to here attend our workshop.
