If you miss the days when playing card games didn't involve pointing, clicking, dragging, and dropping, or if you are just tired of the same old games, then this is the group for you!
Recent trends are showing a return to the old traditional games, as well as the traditional way of playing them, namely, sitting at a table with friends, as opposed to sitting in front of a computer screen, or using a Game Boy or similar device.
We will help you let go of the computer mouse and replace it with a low-tech, old-fashioned deck of playing cards! We can teach you a new game, or many new games, ranging from games popular in North America to games traditionally played in other countries, which we play using the same types of cards that are used in the respective country of origin! In other words, we do not Americanize foreign games, but play them as closely as possible to the way we would if we were to travel to a foreign country to play with the natives. We are simply, and without a doubt, one of the most unique Meetup groups you will ever find!

Tonight we will revisit the Jass family of card games from Switzerland. The most popular form of Jass is Schieber Jass, which is strictly a 4-player partnership game. I have initially limited this Meetup to 4 players, but there is a waiting list in place, so please add your name to the list if there are no regular spots left. Read more
