What You Get In March our board game concierge will guide you through all of the hare-y (see what we did there) rules in Wonderland’s War! Wonderland’s War is a highly rated game where the Looking Glass has shattered, madness is being drained from the inhabitants, and war has come to Wonderland. Alice, Mad Hatter, Red Queen, Jabberwock, and Cheshire Cat must gather all that they can while playing nice at the Hatter’s Tea Party before going to battle! Some modern board game experience is necessary.  We will have the game setup when you arrive, do a full teach of the rules and answer any questions along the way, but these are much more complex games that will likely be difficult for someone brand new to the hobby. Ticket includes full setup/teach/questions answered for the duration of the game, your game pass for the entire day, one free drink and a button for completing the concierge game!  You should expect any concierge game to take a minimum of 2 hours to complete. More Info One ticket per person. It is always helpful to arrive 10-15 minutes early to park, get your drink/snacks and get settled at your table.  Parking info can be found here. If you love the game, we can order a brand new copy for you.  We donate 20% of the profits from our food, drink and merch sales back to our partner non-profit rescues, so buying a game from us levels up your good vibes.  February Concierge Game Schedule Tickets for each night sold separately Sunday, Feb 1 3:00-7:00 – Nemesis Sunday, Feb 22 6:00-10:00 – Nemesis April Concierge Game Schedule Tickets for each night sold separately Sunday, April 5 3:00-7:00 – Wonderland’s War Sunday, April 26  6:00-10:00 – Wonderland’s War Reserve your ticket here: https://scratchingpostcu.com/event/board-game-concierge-night-learn-to-play-wonderlands-war/2026-03-01/
