Boardgame Society

Boardgame Society (BGS) is a University of Sydney Union society that aims to organise boardgame activities for the student body, to enrich their on-campus life and facilitate free discussion among student groups who share a passion for board games, and cultivating a competitive and friendly spirit among students.

Particularly, BGS will focus on Mandarin-based board games such as Live Action Role Playing (LARP), Werewolf, Avalon, and Three Kingdoms to promote multiculturalism and bonding between diverse student groups.

Join us & enjoy boardgames & make friends.

Our society’s events are divided into two main categories: regular weekly board game sessions and the Grand Prix Competition.

BGS will host featured board game sessions once a week: Werewolf, Kill Game, Three Kingdoms, Avalon, LARP and more. Sessions will take place either at USU venues or off-campus locations, with details announced through our official social media channels (e.g. WeChat, Instagram) and via email for major events.

Each semester, alongside regular sessions, BGS will organise the Grand Prix Competitions. Based on community interest, the most popular game (e.g. LARP) will be selected for a tournament. The winners will receive awards. Additionally, BGS may host large themed events or immersive game adventures.
