Board to Death's Watch the Skies 2026

Welcome to our 11th annual Watch the Skies! Form your team and join us at 12:00pm-10:00pm on the 3rd floor of the Ohio Union.
About this Event

In Watch the Skies, players lead the world's nations during first contact with an alien civilization. Each country has four team members: the Head of State, United Nations Representative, Head of Science, and Military Leader. Players must address the world's challenges and pursue their own agendas while maintaining their public image in the media. The game will last for 12 turns of 30 minutes, with a 30 minute break for lunch and an hour break for dinner in the middle.
To reserve a ticket, you must pick your nation (or play as the aliens), so if you have a group in mind make sure to coordinate before purchasing. Otherwise, try to join a nation that already has a couple of signups and find your teammates before the game starts.

Tickets are $5 each, or $3.50 for people who have purchased a club membership by cash at the door or at this Venmo link: https://venmo.com/u/SadieCombs
If you reserve tickets and later find out that any people who you reserved tickets for will not be able to go, please let us know so we can make those tickets available for other people to reserve.
