Ripon Public Library-Adult Game Night–Letters to Whitechapel
Tuesday, April 17 at 6:00 P.M.
Put your game face on and head over to the Ripon Public Library on Tuesday, April 17 at 6:00 P.M. for some kids-free, adult gaming. This month we will focus on games that use the hidden movement game mechanic. Our feature game will be Letters from Whitechapel in which players try to track down Jack the Ripper before he can finish his murdering spree. Copies of Fury of Dracula, Last Friday, Specter Ops, and Captain Sonar will also be available for participants to explore. What are Hidden Movement games? As Board Game Geek describes it, “In Hidden Movement games, only the player controlling certain playing pieces has perfect location information about the whereabouts of those pieces.” For a game description, instructions and a video tutorial for our feature game, Letters from Whitechapel, please visit our website at www.riponlibrary.org/HiddenMovement.Did we miss any hidden movement games you enjoy? Bring your favorites to share! Adult Game Night meets the third Tuesday of every month at 6:00 P.M.
These programs are free and open to the public. Call the library at 748-6160 or contact Mandy Sprague at msprague@riponlibrary.org for more information.
