HAVERHILL — Teacher Mike Cross and his students are rolling the dice on a new idea.
Cross, a chemistry professor at Northern Essex Community College, and several of his students have started a board game club. It exposes students to a variety of games both familiar and unique, while seeking to bring the fun of unplugged gaming to the Merrimack Valley.
Ignoring staples such as Monopoly or Guess Who, the club instead taps into more esoteric titles, such as 7 Wonders and PitchCar Mini. These games, many invented within the last few years, are typically developed in Europe and feature rules ranging from the simple to the complex. But they have one thing in common — they buck the trend of electronic gaming.
Since the club began in the fall, about a dozen students have attended the twice-monthly meetings where they play old favorites or enjoy the latest inventions from Cross' collection of 30 games. Cross said games have "just come out of the woodwork."
