Chicago Area Mensa is hosting the annual Mensa Mind Games® event on April 15-17, 2016. Mind Games is one of the leading tabletop game showcase competitions in the United States and attracts Mensa members from across the globe. The closed event will be held at the Westin Chicago North Shore.
The annual Mind Games event allows game manufacturers to put their new-to-market games to the test as Mensa members play and rate each title. Members of the high IQ organization play innovative games, judging them on aesthetics, instructions, originality, play appeal and play value, and then cast their ballots and comment cards. On the final day of the event, votes are tallied and five games receive the honor of bearing the Mensa Select® seal. The 2016 winners will be announced on Sunday, April 17.
The 2015 Mensa Select winners were Castles of Mad King Ludwig (Bezier Games, Inc.), Dragonwood (Gamewright), Lanterns: The Harvest Festival (Renegade Game Studios and Foxtrot Games), Letter Tycoon (Ad Magic/Breaking Games) and Trekking the National Parks, (Bink Ink, LLC). Past winners include Magic: The Gathering™, Trivial Pursuit, Genus Edition™ and Apples to Apples®. More information about the event can be found at mensamindgames.com.
