SUMMARY:Play with 20+ Adoptable Cats!

They are all spayed/neutered\, microchipped\, vaccinated and tested for many common pathogens.\n–\nAdvance reservations are the only way to guarantee time in the lounge. We welcome walk-ins as long as there is space\, but if the hour is sold out\, it may be a while before the next available lounge time.\n–\nMAKE A RESERVATION!\n\n\n \n\n\nPowered by SimpleTix

SUMMARY:Halloween Night + Blood on the Clocktower
DESCRIPTION:What is this Game?\nBlood on the Clocktower is a game of murder and mystery\, lies and logic\, deduction and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller. \nA social game played in person\, seated in a circle\, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge\, trust each other\, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust\, evade detection\, and wipe out the village. \n  \nOn the stroke of midnight…\nDuring a hellish thunderstorm\, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered\, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below\, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed\, killing by night and taking on human form by day. \nCan good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town? \n  \nSpend Halloween Solving a Muuuuurder\nOur resident storyteller ghoul will guide you through the entire game experience.  Costumes are highly encouraged but not required.  Your ticket comes with one free drink! \n \n\n\nPowered by SimpleTix

SUMMARY:Play 500+ Board Games
DESCRIPTION:Our library has over 500 board games\, both classic and modern.\n–Want to keep it simple with something like Monopoly or Jenga? We’ve got you covered. What something more modern like Catan or Ticket to ride? We’ve got those too. Want something brand spankin’ new you can’t even buy in the stores yet? WE’VE GOT THOSE TOO.\n–\nGame passes are $5/person for 2 hours and are first come first served for tables. We have lots of tools to help you choose a game (see our game picker linked below\,) learn a game without actually reading the rules (most games are stickered with a QR code that takes you to a how to play video….for those of you that hate reading rulebooks) or you can even bring in your own game/DND group/etc. Same game pass pricing applies.\n–PLUS we have snacks\, drinks\, alcohol\, cats (in their separate lounge but viewable from the cafe side through large windows) and all the good vibes.\n20% of the profits from our food\, drink and merch sales go back to our partner rescues. Hang out. Buy stuff. Help cats.\n–\nCheck out our full game list here:https://scratchingpostcu.com/game-table-reservations/\n–\nSee what our Game Picker suggests for you here: https://gamepicker.scratchingpostcu.com/
