PUBG has taken over the gaming world. Our roommate, who is not a gamer at all, says it's fun because you can play it with friends and converse with them at the same time.
The principle of playing games together, however, is rooted in board games. Most of us have spent an evening with our family huddled around a Ludo board, with the vociferous allegations of someone cheating consuming the air inside our home. And a unique opportunity to revisit those times presents itself in the form of a gaming convention hosted by Meeplecon.

The event has been curated by four friends and gaming enthusiasts who came together six years ago to organise events across city venues. "There is a whole new exciting world of newer board games that are yet to enter the Indian market and our aim is to bring this experience to Mumbaikars," says Mohit Goel, partner at the gaming venture.
