Step away from the lecture hall and into a space designed to boost your mood and sharpen your focus. The Recovery Room offers a taster into the world of Dungeons and Dragons as well as a curated selection of board games – the perfect mental reset between sessions. Featuring a guided introduction into fantasy role play and boardgames such as Carcassonne, Dixit, Wavelength and One Night Ultimate Werewolf there is something for every type of player. No experience is required and all rules explained. Come for 10 minutes or stay for a round.

 Your inner Level 3 Kobolt Warlock will thank you.
