Tuesday night, 21 November from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. will be our second  
night of board game and card game demonstrations at Gyro Plaza in  
Northampton. Everyone is welcome to stop by and play a game or two.  
More information about our games and this event can be found at  
www.testdrivegames.com.

We'll have all of our games there, but these three in particular will  
be in the spotlight:


* Thurn and Taxis, winner of this year's Spiel des Jahres (the German  
Game of the Year award) and a remarkable boardgame for two to four  
players
* Guillotine, the darkly humorous card game where each player is an  
executioner in the French Revolution
* Rumis, a fast game of building three-dimensional structures

We'll also have Shadows over Camelot set up. This is a cooperative  
game where all seven players work together to defeat the game. If  
you're curious about this game and would like to try it out, please be  
at Gyro Plaza by 6:30 p.m. and we'll get a game going.

Last but not least, there will be a free door prize. One attendee will  
win one of our games. The drawing for the prize is at 8:30 p.m. The  
winner must be present to win.

We hope to see you there!

TestDrive Games is excited to announce that we'll be conducting public  
game demonstrations at Gyro Plaza at 2022 Main Street,Northampton, PA.  
If you have some free time on any of the dates below, stop by and let  
us teach you how to play a new board game or card game. Many of the  
games we promote have won national or international awards. They're  
fun for adults and also for older children (generally, fifth-graders  
and up).  And they make great Christmas gifts.

We'll be at Gyro Plaza from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on these Tuesdays:


* October 17
* November 21

* December 19


For more information about the games we promote, please see our Web  
site at www.testdrivegames.com. While you're there, take a look at the  
Gyro Plaza menu on our Events page.

Come by to play or to watch. Stay for one game or the whole night. If  
you find a game you like (and we're sure you will), you can buy it  
from us there.

We hope to see you there!

P.S. If you know of someone who might be interested in learning a new  
game, please feel free to forward this message to that person.
