About this Event

The first Thursday of each month, we'll have up to six spots available for anyone working in games or adjacent fields to come by and work for the day. We've got fast WiFi, lots of coffee and a great lunchtime crowd of Chicago game devs and other creatives.

Spots are first-come and need to be reserved in advance for each Thursday.
