Board Game, Friends, Fun | Level Up Retreat

[@srebme2]

Strong agree. We’re not messing around at Level Up. I gamed from 8 AM to 2 AM. They had to kick us out when the hall closed Sunday afternoon. I played 27 unique games in 3 days. It was an absolute blast! I can’t wait until the next one.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Amazing!!

[@gowest7797]

Thank you for making LevelUp a blast for everyone. We couldn't have such a great retreat without players like you. -West the Flamingo

[@CodenamesLIVE]

Saturday was the BEST day! You guys were so nice and fun. And I was lapped. It was me. Jamie Kicked my ever lovin butt.

[@samanthaboudreau6889]

Galaga!!!! Level up sounds like so much fun! My local con is very much like that, all gaming and a math trade table and that's it. So much fun just to play games all day!

[@jamesbrazeal3847]

Living that Jersey life. Jenna won the box fart I think. I love a cool 45, aka a Daniel 45. I love Panera, so good 👍

[@madisonvanorden9486]

So glad you guys got home safe and had such a good time! I am a huge introvert with high anxiety but LOVED going to Level Up and playing Hooky with you ❤ thank you for the great teach and absolutely chotic game 😂

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks for playing!! So nice meeting you

[@gowest7797]

Thank you both for coming. It was great seeing you there and I wish i had more time to chat with you and play a game. Hopefully next time. -West the Flamingo

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks West! We kept kinda seeing you around but always engaged. We also are pretty shy, never hesitate to come say hello if you see us at a con!

[@sugaakia4304]

Wow awesome recap! I feel so touch with your gesture of including me as we only played a few "short and sweet" games, as I like to call them. Nana and sea salt and paper were really fun. Thanks for showing it to me, so happy we got to hang out.😊

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks for saying hi and playing a game!

[@scorpian223]

Agree with everything here. Such a chill time and a great location for so many.

[@voodoomeeple]

I'm so happy that Phantom Ink was such a hit for you! 😁 It's definitely in my top 3 party game of all time

[@FostertheMeeple]

It was!! Thanks for teaching us!

[@stevenlee4367]

Man I wish I went and played wonderlands war with you both. I went to last level up and played it with thinker themer and board game buzz. I dominated and I think lapped someone too so I’d love to see who’d win between us.

[@rorylane4478]

I've watched a fair few of your ranking and tournament vids, but this is the first rambley(?) video ive watched and i just want to say thank you to you both. you have such warm and comforting energy and your passion for the hobby is inspiring. I'm sorry to hear that sometimes the pair of you struggle with anxiety issues, but its very cool that youre talking about it with the community. i loved jeff cuddling the little cat, and jamie you are just such a sweetheart. lots of love to you guys

[@jamesmorgan1967]

Honestly, I went to PAX Unplugged once. Great convention, but going on my own was a bit challenging. Perhaps Level Up is a better place to start; sounds like a really nice space. Wish I could've joined you all for Sea Salt and Paper and/or The White Castle and Flipships! Great news about more content on Wonderland's War (one of the first games I backed on Kickstarter.) Thanks for talking us along on your convention experience!

[@FostertheMeeple]

You’re most welcome!

[@matthewzahnzinger]

The hotel at the first Level Up was also... interesting. ;) Fire alarms going off in the middle of the night, insufficient AC in the rooms... but weirdly, the food at the hotel restaurant was amazing! Hoping they bring it back to New England for the summer/fall/whenever the next one is, as that was why I was able to go last year; it was absolutely amazing, and sounds like this one was just as good! Might just take some time, as is expected for a new event series, to find the right spot.

[@jannagregory7928]

Glad you had such a great time! I’ve only played Hooky once, but I thought it was so HARD! Also, another shout-out for Love on the Spectrum-I think it took us 2 nights to binge it, but it is so, so good!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Agreed!! Such a heartwarming show.

[@Chloe-do8qs]

Level Up sounds awesome! On an unrelated note, it looks like you have Detective: City of Angels behind you. Have you played it yet? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one. 😁

[@FostertheMeeple]

We haven’t but very excited to!

[@maggieotter793]

I wish I could give this video a million likes 😂❤️

[@FostertheMeeple]

I wish you could too!

[@DevonTalksTabletop]

So wonderful to see you two 😊 Rain check on LotR Confrontation, my love.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yes! I will be sure to bring it next time we are to be in the same place

[@guimauve-rose]

Yep Fantom ink is so fun, i introduced it to my family during the christmas holidays and they didn't want to stop playing it !

[@FostertheMeeple]

I can see why!

[@TheFamilyCrocker]

Space Invaders! Is what FlipShips is bassd on, and there is a reprint by Buffalo with that name that may be easier to find

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yes!! Thank you!

[@Sreehammer]

Love that you were able to play with so many discord members! Hope to get to play a game with yall sometime :)

[@FostertheMeeple]

Agreed!

[@4theluvofbooks211]

That’s Not a Hat is so frustrating, but soooo good!!!! Have you played with the Cat and Dog expansion for Fort?

[@FostertheMeeple]

We have!!

[@darrenneely8613]

Love convention travel wrap-ups!

[@FostertheMeeple]

We love sharing the experiences!

[@loniivanovskis1239]

We tried Dice Tower Retreat last year and loved it for all the same reasons. We are there to play and meet people. This is much closer to us, so maybe we will see you in the autumn!

[@gowest7797]

Keep your eyes open, LevelUp might have a option for you 😊. -West the Flamingo

[@FostertheMeeple]

Here’s to hoping!

[@jkledis]

Sounds like a lot of fun. I have old man ears Jeff I have to use my beard trimmer to trim my ears!😅😂

[@FostertheMeeple]

Twins!

[@hillmania]

Kevin here. We just joined the Discord. 😂 Thanks for playing Fort with us! Sorry I continued the losing streak.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Ehohhh!!!! Ya made it!

[@Roxas77]

I gotta go to something like this one day, make some friends :)

[@stephanietripp4614]

It was great playing with you guys! We love Level Up, hope to see you there next year! ~Stephanie and her partner (Jake 😉)

[@FostertheMeeple]

JAKE!! So hard to remember all the names haha. Nice meeting you!

[@gowest7797]

Thanks for coming to LevelUp. Players like you make our retreat better and better every year. -West the Flamingo

[@paburrows]

With Flipships are you thinking of Galaxia or Missle Command or Space Invaders?

[@FostertheMeeple]

Space invaders!!!

[@brandtsanderson4665]

It was great to meet you! Glad you had fun

[@FostertheMeeple]

Same to you!!

[@gowest7797]

Brandon, thank you for being awesome and supporting LevelUp. -West the Flamingo

[@dischound]

Yeah! Flipships is so good!

[@FostertheMeeple]

It really is!

[@kieranberry]

Are you guys going to be at Breakout in Toronto next month??

[@FostertheMeeple]

Unfortunately not! We hope you have a blast though!

[@dinakraus2201]

As if Markus' head wasn't be enough. He's going to be unbearable for a week, at least!

[@FostertheMeeple]

LOL! We wish you luck with that ;)

[@ekurisona663]

we have to pay cash to chat now - what is this? how about cat chat? or casual chat? anything but cash chat 😢

[@FostertheMeeple]

I will accept cats for chats 😂
