A lot of people ask me what I do with my time at the game store. Well, aside from doing inventory, integrating cards (it never ends!!) AND helping customers; I plan/run events.

..:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 

The events I put the most amount of time into are the broad market events. What makes an event successful?

 

Organization- Having enthusiastic demonstrators of the game or games.

Advertising- Letting enough people know ahead of time.

Fun- Theme and creating an inviting atmosphere.

 

This month we have a Horror Board Game day scheduled for…

 

Sun. Oct. 26th

1pm

 

CHG Horrorfest '08

 

Organization/Games

Mwahahaha! is a card game of Mad Scientists and Global Domination. You assume the role of an evil genius who builds a criminal empire and constructs a doomsday device with which to cow a trembling humanity. Run by Tim Smith

A Touch of Evil run by Tim Smith

 

Last Night on Earth is a survival horror board game that pits small-town Heroes head-to-head against a limitless horde of Zombies (players can play on the Hero team or as the Zombies). run by Jerod Leupold

 

A Touch of Evil is a fast-paced game of fiendish creatures, dashing Heroes, and high-adventure. Each player takes on the role of a unique monster-hunting Hero, racing against time to stop the forces of darkness from claiming another foothold in the world of man. Run by Tim Smith

 

Betrayal at House on the Hill Secretly, one of the characters betrays the rest of the party, and the innocent members of the party must defeat the traitor in their midst before it's too late! run by Nathan

 

Werewolf at Miller's Hollow is a game that takes place in a small village which is haunted by werewolves. Each player is secretly assigned a role - Werewolf, Villager, or special character. Werewolf is a social game that requires no equipment to play. Run by Jerod Leupold

We're going to run horror movies in the background all day, hand out Halloween candy and play a little bit of dress up!

 

Just bring yourself and a penchant for the macabre!

Critical Hit Games is closed due to the possibility of flooding. The Army Corps of Engineers has declared a Flood Emergency in the area of 89 Second St. in Coralville (that's us). Flood panels were installed on our entrances and exits to keep the water out once flood waters spill over the Coralville Dam (expected to happen the evening of June 9).

Our electricity is disconnected until flood waters subside. All events are cancelled in the meantime. All league play is suspended. Please contact us with any questions. We will try to respond to all questions/Concerns. Thanks for your patience!
