Board games are popular in Europe and the United States, and board game shops (bars) are even more popular in China, and some foreign magazines have translated as "board game cafes" when they discovered this new thing. The board game shop does not offer specialty coffee, but the decoration environment is stylish, and the significance of the board game store is not limited to the board game itself, but also to socialize and relax.
There are not many free games, only about 30, and the selection is elementary and mostly in a relaxed and cheerful type. Among them, "A Foolish Amazing", "Wonderful", "Just a Word", and "Once Upon a Time" are very suitable for party occasions, and the game involves a lot of speech, which is cheerful and enthusiastic. The atmosphere of "I Am the Big Boss" is a little tight, but the game still needs dialogue. "Easy Penguin" is a more popular "ice cube" game in 2018, which is suitable for 2 people to interact.
The free board game is very low in difficulty and suitable for new players. If you're looking for a challenge, keep an eye out for Power Plant and The Da Vinci Code, which are a bit more serious categories. "The Wind" can be said to be famous, this is a Chinese game also released abroad, the reputation is even better than "Three Kingdoms", but the packaging is poor, often ignored by novices. "The Wind" is a spy war-themed board game, in addition to the movie of the same name, the design also refers to the TV series "Latent" and the movie "Lust and Caution". The Wind is a lot of fun, and there are a lot of settings to balance each other, but it's not easy to pick up compared to other board games in the store, and it's usually fun to try out 2 rounds.
The biggest advantage of Youkong is the environment, and its quality is first-class in Chongqing, and there is almost no rival. This advantage even extends to the public space, where the store is located on Longhu Xinyi Street in Guanyin Bridge, with a hygienic corridor, adequate lighting and no clutter, compared to Hongling International, where the chicken leg mushroom is located, which is called Hong Kong's Chungking Mansion.
"Available" is taken from the polite phrase "free to make an appointment", and the idea of the store is to provide a comfortable communication space, and the decoration pays attention to style. When it is open, the door is not closed, and the door beam is hung with a curtain printed with the word "available" to create an izakaya feeling. The adjacent bar area maintains a uniform style, with Mt. Fuji paintings, clear water films, and beckoning cats highlighting the Japanese atmosphere. The style of the lobby changes abruptly, the style of the tables and chairs conforms to the loft genre, and the scratch paintings and deer heads are reminiscent of Northern Europe, but due to the division of the entrance wall, it does not conflict with the Japanese style of the bar area.
There are two private rooms on the second floor, with mahjong tables, and the hall on the first floor has a projection screen, red and white machines, and there are snacks at the bar.
