Life’s better when we game together.
The places we once gathered—”third spaces” like church, social clubs, neighborhood hangouts—are vanishing. Instead, we spend our time on digital distractions and hectic schedules, which isolate us from the relationships we need to thrive. This loss isn’t just sad—it’s harmful to us as individuals and as a society.
At Advance Three Spaces, we believe building community is an essential component to healing divides and bridging differences. Board games offer more than entertainment—they create shared experiences that bring people together. Around the table, strangers become friends.
Whether you’re new to gaming or a lifelong enthusiast, we’ve got a seat for you at our tables. Let’s restore the vital connections that make life richer—for everyone.

Why “Advance Three Spaces”? Beyond the board game reference, the idea of “third spaces” refers to places outside the home (first space) and work (second space) where people gather, socialize, and build community. Third spaces play a vital role in fostering a sense of belonging and improving quality of life by providing informal, neutral, and accessible environments. Without the community found in third spaces, we lose trust in each other, we lose empathy, and we lose the joy that comes from being part of something bigger. Unfortunately, third spaces are on the decline. We’d like to change that.
