Let’s be honest, if you’ve played Pandemic, you know how a game can go from a fun, casual evening to a nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat experience where teamwork and strategy rule the day. Now imagine that same energy, but in a game that evolves every time you play it.

That’s exactly what Ziggurat: A Legacy Adventure brings to the table, and the genius behind it? Matt Leacock.

But here's the kicker: you’re not just going to hear about Ziggurat—you’re going to play it, and with the man who created it! On Sunday, September 22, 2024, Gamelandia is hosting the Meet Your Maker event, featuring Matt Leacock himself. Trust me, if you’re serious about board games, you do not want to miss this.
