– Pocket Rumble
– Wizard of Legend
– Runbow

– Use Your Words
– Overcooked 2
– Blade Strangers

And Many More!
We will be rotating each game, so everyone would have a chance to try out different Nindie titles!
To get to Waypoint Cafe, take the D Train to Grand St. From there, it’s a five minute walk to Ludlow St. After you reach Ludlow, make a left turn, and it’s a very short walk. You could also take the F Train to Delancey St. From there, it’s a three minute walk to Ludlow.
Please be mindful, and respect other patrons at Waypoint Cafe, as well as the management. We also urge anyone attending the event not to bring outside food to the venue.
