“He who follows in the footsteps of others can never come first. »
I always knew from the start of the store that I wanted to offer something that didn't exist in Vaison, that is to say board game activities.
I was happy to bring something original to Vaison and in fact the store's logo is inspired by this desire to bring people together through board games.
You will be able to see men holding hands and a man who creates this link between the other two.
You will also be able to see that the general shape of the men forms a “V” for Vaison and a delighted smile for the rapprochement of the characters via board games.
I also wanted to show that the world of board games from the 80s and after, which wanted to be elitist, was no longer necessarily so now...
Board games are now aimed at all types of audiences, from beginners to game enthusiasts, with family or friends while maintaining an “expert” part that appeals to more seasoned players.
I have played games in Vaison, its surroundings and in many other places and I am very happy to always be able to offer you these game times that I particularly like!
I will always be a force for suggestions and sharing my passion for board games in events and in stores, because you are always receptive and motivated so that in Vaison, we Play the Game! ;)
Good day and good game ;)

“Humans live by finding refuge in each other’s hearts.”
My daily joy at the store is sharing unique moments and discussions with you around board games.
With each game or discussion, I draw inspiration from your expectations and desires to try to offer you activities or game choices that suit you.
All these unique moments remain engraved in me and enrich my experience inside and outside the store day after day.
You help grow the store and me with every experience we share together. So, thank you to everyone who contributes to sharing the playful passion with me. ;)
From those who encouraged me from the start of the store creation project, to those who joined me along the way and to all those who will join me along the way, you all leave one less positive footprint.
I love offering you original and unique play moments and you reciprocate this with your kindness and compliments which I greatly appreciate.
So what if we continued to enjoy the fun world of board games together for a long time to come?
I'm here as long as you're here to share the playful world with you ;)
Good day and good game ;)

“We are more likely to turn towards the rising sun than the setting sun.”
We all love these games that bring us together and that everyone knows, because almost all of us know how to play them.
Because these games are reassuring and sure values that appeal to a large majority.
But there are also fun nuggets that we didn't expect and which arrive and surprise us with their accessibility and their incredible playability and replayability.
I have also chosen to offer you games in the store, but not only that... You will also find lesser-known games, but just as good as the others, because they offer a new approach.
During the Golden Aces and the International Games Festival in Cannes, the games benefit from the effect of the rising sun and are highlighted there.
In the setting sun, when you are very curious, you can also discover beautiful, playful nuggets that are not as highlighted.
These games from small publishers which do not benefit from the optimal light of a large distribution house but which offer playful wonders.
As you may already know, I am a curious serial gamer long before being the manager of my little store.
So, for me, little fun nuggets like for example Hive by Ludidistri and other wonders that go unnoticed always interest me…
So if you want to join the game enthusiasts who come to discover these fun nuggets from me and the other independents who offer them, you are always welcome. ;)
Good day and good game ;)

“Once the game is over, the king and the pawn are both placed in the same box. »
When the game ends, all the game pieces return to the box. At that moment, they are all on an equal footing, but before they all participated in a more or less calm game.
We do not necessarily have the same game or the same hand at our disposal. But knowing how to use an unfavorable hand to learn its weaknesses and make an experience of it is a great feat.
Starting from a position of strength is not always a guarantee of a winning game. Depending on the cards or pawns that appear during the round, the course of the game can change at any time.
Just as a failure does not necessarily leave us checkmate, whether we place our pawns well or not, sooner or later we end up learning from our mistakes.
The trump card will not always be in our favor, but by combining our positive and negative experiences we end up finding the combo that suits us.
I didn't start from an easy life, people put obstacles in my way and they continue to put obstacles in my way even today, but I would never take the hand of returning the medal.
In the end, failures, if we want to continue to believe in them, learn from our mistakes and be comforted by our successes, it is already a victory.
And at the end of the game, once the pawns and kings are placed together in the same box, what will remain above all with us is the memory of the games and moments that we shared with those who mattered most to us….
Good day and good game ;)

“Happiness is a habit to cultivate. »
Since I started the store, 6 years ago now, I always enjoy it every day.
I like to share these moments around board games with you, because beyond just playing a game, we share a unique moment.
I enjoy spending quality time playing board games every day and our discussions at the same time warm my heart.
These moments always teach me more about you and open me up to other life experiences, which for me is always enriching.
I try every day to see the bright side of things as much as possible, even if life doesn't always have good sides. Things won't get better if you think everything will go wrong.
It’s as if we wanted to run a race, but said we didn’t want to try because we would surely lose; when we have already lost since we did not want to try...
And believe me I am not spared from difficulties, but if we do not learn from all these experiences that life offers us then we remain in a position of perpetual waiting.
Happiness can be cultivated and through habit, we manage to see the experience that the bad trials we go through also offer us…
I learned to take a step back to allow the store to develop and offer you new things every day.
Ultimately, the mean things done against my store to demean it only strengthened it even more than before!
So thank you to all those people who say no, who put obstacles in the way, who belittle my store because you allow it to continue to progress even more than I had planned to do myself^^.
I plan to continue to mostly see the positive side of things, because that's the person I am and what benefits my store the most.
Good day and good game ;)

“It is by stumbling that we learn to walk. »
Like when we are children, when learning to walk we stumble very often, and yet, that does not stop us from getting up and continuing to learn to walk...
I have failed at certain things in the past. I think, for example, of keeping calm in the face of provocative people to annoy us.
I never insulted them, but yes I got momentarily angry, because I thought at the time that we always had to protect ourselves…
Then, over time, I realized that calm and ignoring provocation or denigration were much more comforting than wanting to be right at all costs.
Defending yourself against people who only see problems where there are solutions is often useless, because they will find other problems in the solutions that we have found again...
I decided to move forward and not dwell on when will we say about people who are determined to judge me without even trying to know me…
However, I wanted to apologize to the people to whom I was able to respond curtly when they insulted me or openly disrespected me...
Not for them, but for me, because they clearly had no business disrespecting or insulting me... But I shouldn't have wasted time giving them importance...
I nevertheless thank these people who allowed me to question myself and progress towards a better version of myself, more serene and determined to continue to develop my store in a lasting way...
And above all, thank you to all those people who, on a daily basis, support me, believe in my playful project and with whom I share with joy and pleasure the most beautiful things the gaming world has to offer. ;)

“A life without love is like a year without sunny days. »
When you love what you do, you have less difficulty finding new ideas and sharing your passion with any enthusiast or enthusiast you meet along the way...
If I didn't have the ambition to share with you the world of gaming and what makes it unique and sometimes improbable to surprising, I wouldn't have opened the store.
Sharing my passion for board games with you means sharing my playful and passionately curious side.
“Love is not a feeling, it is a force, a virtue. » as Elizabeth de Bagréef-Spéeanski or Alphonse Karr said so well, “Love is what gives you the desire and the strength to build”.
The love of what we do with passion is a unique and inestimable strength!
I love each year that passes, building with you and seeing a fun world of endless imagination and talent evolve, it’s just great!
Without this love of games, I would no longer be here to offer you unique fun nuggets that suit you...
The playful world shines and enriches us with unique and timeless moments every day and that's why I decided to do what I do, play and make you play!
Our exchanges around games, at the store or elsewhere, are what allow me day after day to enrich myself with life experience, smiles, real laughs, friendly teasing.
I love sharing these unforgettable moments with you, so thank you to you too!

“The stranger is a friend whom we have not yet met. »
In my life and within the store, I have been lucky to meet great people!
I have never been afraid of discovering new people, because I believe that we all have something to discover and learn from each other…
During the outdoor events, for example, I had the great experience of meeting extraordinary people through their open-mindedness and their joy of living!
I think in particular of my Sereno players, with whom I enjoy chatting and joking while we play.
I also think of the Fada team, teamalia, Adamo, bossnlite and all those that I cannot name but who remain in my memory and my daily life for my greatest pleasure. ;)
Thank you to those who also went a long way with me, Mac Donald de Saint Romain, Mistigri, the Ludovores, Ludica Romana, and who fortunately continued to progress in their own way. :)
I find that we discover even more about the people we meet through board games.
The game remains quite revealing of characters, just as much as a good conversation, as shared music or books...
So I am very happy on a daily basis to have found and continue to meet strangers who have often become acquaintances, friends quite often and always great encounters!
THANKS ;)

“When there is room in the heart, there is room in the house. »
I am always keen to introduce you to the world of board games, because we share many convivial moments there.
And then, as I always say, the more we play games, the more we laugh. ;)
Having unique conversations and moments around board games with you is as good a time for me as it is for you.
Offering you classic games to the most original is also a way for me to open up as you open up to me.
Games have held a special place in my heart since I was little. From my first battle at my grandparents' house to all our daily active games, I never tire of playing and even more so with you!
My favorite board game is sharing it with you in Vaison and elsewhere. My favorite roll of the dice is opening the store. My favorite pawns are the ones that I install and move with you in the heart of the store and outside on a daily basis.
There is room in my heart, like in the store, for beautiful future moments with you! ;)
I look forward to sharing new discussions and games around board games, because these moments teach us a lot about each other.
I am therefore keen to continue to offer you the most beautiful things about the gaming world, its diversity of games and its conviviality.
I plan to stay in the game to continue the game with you! Let's play ;)
Good day and good game ;)

“Prudence does not prevent all misfortunes, but lack of prudence never fails to attract them. »
With the covid crisis we have all seen our situations weakened…
It was then necessary to develop other strategies to continue to keep businesses running.
Within the store, as soon as we knew that by disinfecting we could continue to sell even online and by takeaway, I immediately relaunched sales on the site by following the necessary actions for the safety of my customers and Click and Collect for my customers in Vaison and the surrounding area.
At the same time, to continue to offer you supports and continue this link around the games that we have, I have increased the publications on social networks.
I couldn't see myself waiting for time to pass and seeing if the store would hold up if I sat idly by waiting for the crisis to pass.
So I took matters into my own hands by offering you advice by telephone, email and social networks to find the fun nuggets which I hope will help bring you some happy moments with family and friends.
After a normal games festival in 2020, we had to adapt to this crisis and its consequences on our everyday lives.
Games were “non-essential”, like many other areas, and the empty store all day is what weighed on me the most during this crisis regarding my store…
I was very happy to be able to find you, even masked, at the store and at outdoor events.
Moreover, covid has made outdoor events much more attractive than in-store events. It’s completely understandable after what we’ve been through…
I had carefully planned what I needed to survive the crisis, which allowed me to cope and continue to share my passion for board games with you.
And then, I was lucky (and I still am) to have a golden clientele like you, who continued and continues to believe in my store.
So thank you all!
Good day and good game ;)

“He who goes slowly, goes surely, and he who goes surely, goes far.”
I have always taken the time to quietly think about what I offer you on a daily basis, both for games, activities and services.
That's why I like to celebrate the store's birthdays every year for the last 6 years with you in the store and in events.
I can indeed question myself about the past year and ask what new ideas I can offer you for the following year.
And then seeing where we started from to progress a little more each year, I find that stimulating.
I like to search and find new things to offer you, simply because I always try to do better than what I have been able to do before.
I like to move at my own pace and try to offer you things that sometimes work and sometimes don't, the most important thing is to see what allows you to progress, successful or not...
I plan to continue looking for ways to offer you new things every year, because I love sharing my passion for gaming with you.
Good day and good game ;)

“To take revenge for an offense is to put oneself on the level of one’s enemy; to forgive him is to put oneself above him. »
Since the time that I have suffered the uncomfortable behavior of certain individuals out of a spirit of “competition”, I believe that my patience and my resilience no longer need to be proven…
When you send your friends to tell you that “what you are selling is crap…. ". Whether they come to the front of the store or allow themselves to insult me in the street of “la c…….” board games”, we don’t really have any moral lessons to give to our “competitor” as you like to call me…
Almost 6 and a half years without flinching in the face of all this, because as I told you in person when you came to ask me in my own store “Could we be united?” ".
I told you that I was not interested in showing solidarity with people who denigrate my store and my values...but that I would not return the favor, because that's simply not me...
However, I forgave you a while ago, because I decided to focus my attention and energy on something more useful and constructive, my store!
I'm talking about this so that you understand once and for all that I will NEVER respond to your baseness, whatever the level...
I hope for you at some point that you will be able to refocus on yourself to appreciate what life has to offer you.
I wish you good sales and lots of good things in your professional and personal lives, but without me...

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. »
If there is one quality of mine that has always been useful to me in life and especially in the store, it is patience...
I wanted at all costs to develop moments around board games with you and not just sell them to you.
The events at the store took off quite quickly and were going pretty well from the start.
I had to be more patient with the outdoor activities which started timidly.
Patience can seem bitter when you are not immediately recognized for the experience you can offer.
But as they say “Rome was not built in a day”, every project is built, needs to mature and develop in order to evolve perpetually.
We put our stones in place one after the other and then we adjust them if they are not ready to build something solid.
And then over time, we reap the sweet fruits of what we sowed and we know why it was worth the wait.
Now, since covid, my outdoor activities are very calm and my outdoor activities are very dynamic.
This is why I chose to introduce games with “Discover Games” to introduce beginners to board games and why not help find new players. ;)
Everyone receives their blessings, there is no point in being jealous or eyeing the good things that other people gain...
What takes time to build often lasts longer than what is hastily built.

Little miracles every day!
I am one of those people who think that we can enjoy all the little things in everyday life.
In the world of board games, I would say that each moment that I share with you around a game, a discussion is unique.
All these good little moments are for me my little daily miracles, because I never get tired of sharing all these moments with you...
So finding the game that makes you laugh together and have a good time is great!
Allowing you to offer your loved ones players gems that they would not necessarily have discovered elsewhere is also one of my objectives.
And then share with you play times that are always friendly and bring us closer together, these are moments out of time...
I always look forward to coming and joining you at the various events, whether my events or the co-hosted events.
Because coming to your contact to make you play and have a good time, these are little playful miracles…
I love being the one who makes you play solo as much as sharing these moments of animation with colleagues from the gaming world!
Because each animation, or each game or service sold, these are always instructive moments of discussion that help me progress on a daily basis.
I like to progress so that I can share even more unique moments with you, these are my little everyday miracles!
Good day and good game ;)

My superpower: making you smile!
During playtime, one of the children I look after told me after experiencing a difficult moment that I was the “Wonder Woman of Smiles”.
I found it super cute and then I asked him why and he told me “because even when I’m sad, you make me smile every time, so you’re the Wonder Woman of smiles”.
I already don't understand why and how you can hurt people and have a clear conscience, but then hurting children really annoys me.
I didn't have many funny moments growing up and this is my way of showing them that we can get through it despite everything life throws at us...
I am now happy that my personal experience can help me understand these children more than anyone else and help them to smile again for a moment...
Because I know what a smile costs when life is not easy from childhood, I love seeing their little faces smile and hearing them burst out laughing...
I love these moments suspended in time where they can escape their daily lives for a moment and enjoy being children like any other...
Even in entertainment in general and in the store, you tell me that I often have a smile.
I have a smile because I haven't always had it and because sharing my passion for board games with you is above all sharing good moments of sharing and laughter.
Sharing my passion with you to bring you closer to each other through games is just invaluable to me!
So if I can bring a smile to your face and make you laugh, young and old, I will continue to do it every day.
I also intend to stay for these children and for you the “Wonder Woman of smiles”. It’s my superpower that I hope I never lose so I can share it with you. ;)

I will always be inspired to play the game!
We Play the Game in Vaison and elsewhere!
Here, in the surrounding area and elsewhere, I am very happy to be able to offer you playtime where we share smiles, unique moments, laughter in an always friendly atmosphere!
The most important thing for me is to offer you playtime that suits you and where we enjoy a moment of sharing moments as unique as you...
I am still as motivated as at the start of the activities to always offer you new things to try and your enthusiasm motivates me even more.
I try to do everything I can to adapt as much as possible to your wishes of the moment, I even learned some basic Italian to go and co-host there…
There’s no stopping me when it comes to playing the game!
Especially when you co-host with crazy hosts who are always caring and friendly. Grazie mille Macandcheesy ;)
We are lucky in the gaming world to have the majority of players who are always motivated even if sometimes a little undisciplined :p
As they say “he who tries nothing, achieves nothing”, so if we can try to slip in a point and the animators don’t see anything it goes well… Isn’t that right Aless’gioc ^^ Grazie mille ;)
And then sometimes it's me who forgets to count my points or does one thing too much when I realize it, but René, Yves, Yvette or Anne keep an eye on things. :p I just have to behave ;)
And then by meeting you in activities, I am also very happy to discover lots of interesting topics around games.
Thanks to my Sereno players for mutually sharing our knowledge and chatting during game times... :)
Grazie mille Anna, Maria, Alless’gioc, Machandcheesy, Dolores, Gulia e tutti gli giocattori di questa equipa fantastica ;)

When it comes to playing, we're never last!
I'm very happy to see that when it comes to playing, you are never last!
Play time resumed joyfully as soon as gatherings were authorized again and we were able to take advantage of this to get back to playing.
Young and old alike, this is the time when we get together around board games which are also very precious to me…
You are always very fond of discoveries and new games to try to have a good time together.
I'm happy to see residents become strategists and call me to order when I inadvertently forget to apply one of the rules of the game...or even fight mercilessly :)
I also like this little sneaky side that we can have around a game...Around a game, there are no friends, no loved ones, the game is the game... ;)
We're all on an equal footing, with the same rules and that's what's great because it gives a good framework for expressing your strategies during a game...
I love seeing you enjoy the games, your good mood, your less good moods when you lose, your laughter and smiles which inspire me to always do more for you and you always offer more new things.
I also love to tease you just as much as you love to tease me during playtime, with dirty tricks, jokes, always rich exchanges, etc…
And for the little ones to make them smile again and see them burst out laughing despite the events of life they are going through, that’s just my greatest reward…
So thank you for sharing with me the passion for board games and see you soon to play. ;)

The last will be first !
As Mika Hakkinen says, “To be a good winner, you have to be a good loser.” »
When you are passionate about what you do, you fall much more often than you rise. What would be a shame would be not to get up after falling...
Because to be better than you were before, you have to know how to fall, lose, start again, fall again, lose, and always get back up to win small victories day after day.
The first were not always first, they progressed, tested, failed, tried again and finally got there.
After covid, I was unable to restart in-store events, but outdoor events resumed even better than before thanks to my determination.
If we start telling ourselves that we are going to lose or not succeed, we will only have a greater chance of losing if we think about trying and trying again until we manage to do something...
When I started some outdoor events, I didn't think I could do it because it was a whole new style of audience.
And then, I put an action plan in place with small concrete actions to carry out to achieve other, larger actions.
I even almost stopped certain activities for fear of not living up to the expectations we had from playtime...
And then if a goal scares us, it’s because we’ve set the bar high enough and we’re on the right track to get out of our comfort zone and develop our goals.
So I worked twice as hard on what was causing me difficulty in order to be able to meet the demands that were asked of me during these play times.
And today, I am very happy that I didn't give up and didn't give up, because I gained more experience and development from the store's playtime...
It’s often on the other side of your comfort zone that you make the best progress!
If your goals scare you, it’s because they take you out of your comfort zone, but you will see that if you do it, you will end up thanking yourself!
A defeat is a victory, because it teaches us much more about ourselves than a victory. ;)
Good day and good game ;)

You have to know how to lose!
We don't always succeed in what we do whatever the field, but we have definitely lost when we haven't learned anything from it...
Defeat teaches us much more than victory because it helps us point out a point for improvement.
In games as in life, I am not a bad loser.
For example, I decided to no longer take vouchers from Vaison town hall for the next Christmas, because I was receiving fewer and fewer.
I then deduced that my products were no longer suitable for the people who came to have them for Christmas.
I have classics, but also an original range of board games that I particularly care about and which my regulars enjoy all year round.
I don't plan to start a game where we don't play fair, so I preferred to withdraw from the game.
Because I'm willing to accept a defeat but certainly not to hear that we won't use the voucher (I quote) "at someone racist's store", when we have just entered there to take some advice on games to use the voucher at my colleague’s store later…
I am very happy that my colleague was able to take advantage of these ladies' vouchers, it is well deserved. Thank you to the town hall of Vaison for showing an interest in the store for its Christmas vouchers.
So yes, this time I lost. I would not play the game of disrespect and defamation to get vouchers…
It was already enough to be called racist live and in front of everyone on Google just because of a faulty internet connection…
However, we cannot use the pretext of a comment on the Internet to stupidly use it as if words had no impact on people, Madam.
Well done Madam, you can rejoice, your comment hurt my feelings... However, I only wish you good in return, because I would never rejoice at your misfortune... That’s just not who I am.
Thank you for your ambivalent morality which allowed me to learn to detach myself from people's gaze!
I would also like to thank once again all these wonderful customers and loved ones who supported me in the face of this gratuitous nastiness!
I learned that I could count once again (as with covid) on an extraordinary clientele.
I will continue to be with you so that in Vaison, We Play the Game! <3

Everything to gain!
I hesitated a lot 6 years ago before opening the store... And then, I told myself that I had nothing to lose and rather everything to gain! As the sayings go, “He who tries nothing, achieves nothing” and “He who lives will see”…
I hesitated, because the gaming world was a little present but spread out a lot around Vaison. I wondered if I would have enough players or those close to players to be able to offer board games in Vaison and its surroundings.
And not to simplify things, I gave myself the additional objective of specializing also with independent games, always very interesting, but nevertheless less known to the general public...
And since “luck favors the bold”, always according to a saying, I ended up taking a year to mature my project and train myself in the necessary tools and launched myself.
Since I love challenges, I said to myself why not also offer Vaison moments where we Play the Game!
So, alongside in-store and online sales, I launched in-store game events which were going pretty well until covid.
And word of mouth has meant that private and public structures have trusted me to provide support to their residents and employees.
And then as a local business, I offered cyberspace which was very useful when it was still available. Too bad the abuse from some people forced me to put an end to it…
However, I remain focused every day on the photocopying, scanning and Pick Up parcel services that are useful to you on a daily basis.
When I look back on its first six years, I have gained a lot with all of you on a daily basis.
I matured, learned, made mistakes in order to progress better later, “braced myself and let it be said” as a great businesswoman from Vaison had advised me…
But that’s how I am, I don’t know how to do things by halves, but I have learned to stay calm in the face of life’s challenges.
I also don't know how to reciprocate harm when it is done to me... You don't heal a wound by moving a knife...
All these negative and above all mostly positive experiences allowed me to gain from it!
Thank you again to everyone for sharing my fun journey and living your passion for board games with me. ;)

A daily victory!
When I see the playful world that is shared more and more on a daily basis, I tell myself that we are lucky to have so many choices of board games...
The more varied the choice of games and adapted to all of us, the more we want to start or get back into board games.
And then, sharing a fun moment around a table is so unique and enjoyable that it would be a shame to deprive yourself of it.
We have talented creators who allow us to play in different universes and with various styles of game mechanics, from the simplest to the most complex…
The daily victory is to succeed in bringing together amateurs and seasoned gamers to share a pleasant moment together.
My greatest victory is seeing you fully enjoy the moment around the games during outdoor activities and events.
Seeing you create or bond with other players through games is a huge reward for me!
So as long as you live the fun adventure to the fullest with me, I will continue to offer you games and activities as unique as you all!

I have always dreamed of working in a field that brings people together and brings smiles to their faces...
This is also why I worked as a waitress with a smile and motivation, because in the restaurant people come together to enjoy a good time.
When I worked at Picard, I carefully learned about the cold chain process and product compositions to be able to best advise customers.
And then I moved towards entertainment for children and teenagers, because providing them with support and a smile on a daily basis is great.
Without forgetting what we receive in return: the smiles, the moments of complicity, the activities that make them grow and gain self-confidence, among other things…
I often meet up with the children and teenagers I had during the post-Christmas events in the town where I come from. It’s always a pleasure to see how they have evolved.
I may be naive, but I think that you can bring people together and get closer to them when you have the necessary open-mindedness to do so…
And so I took the chance to have a commercial premises to launch my slightly crazy, but so exciting project of creating the store so that in Vaison we too can Play the Game!
Because beyond looking at game boxes to read what is written there, I have tested the majority of the games that I offer you.
For what ?
Quite simply because, who can tell you about games better than a passionate person who has been playing since they were a child?
I continue to play every day and I am curious about all types of games long before being simply a store that sells games.
And then the ultimate project concerning the store, it was for me the consecration with the animations!
Rather present in store before covid, I can now offer you and enjoy exquisite moments during outdoor activities with you!
I had a dream, on my modest scale, to succeed in bringing people together and I believe that I am in the process of making it come true, so thank you for your daily trust and enthusiasm, once again. ;)
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!
I have good hope
Thanks again to everyone who came to celebrate the store's 6th anniversary with me, you are awesome as always. ;)
When I see what I started with 6 years ago and where the store is today, I am very happy and proud.
Proud because my daily involvement allows us to further develop the world of board games in the area and to bring in even more players. ;)
Very happy because for most of you, you have been there since the beginning of the store and that is priceless!
I landed in a very discreet gaming world at the start and non-existent game activities, with player development in Vaison and its surroundings.
I am quite proud to be able to say that I have brought my modest, playful touch to Vaison and its surroundings via dynamic activities that adapt to each of you.
I hope to continue to bring you my enthusiasm around board games through activities, in the store and online via the blog and video of quick games that I offer you daily.
If you would like to join us in the gaming world, you are welcome. Young and old, beginners or more experienced, there is something for everyone!
The “Discovery Games” events at the store aim to introduce newbies to the world of board games.
So, don’t hesitate to come join me to open up to board games! ;)
I am hopeful that the gaming world continues to be as dynamic and humanly enriching.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!
There will be sport!
Board games are not just games sitting quietly around a table.
Many games are played or can be played outside to have fun while enjoying the good weather.
I am thinking, for example, of molki, the game of papattes, kub and many other outdoor games which are just brilliant!
And many games can also be adapted to make them a little more sporty…
Have you ever tried to play jungle speed by putting the totem on the other side of the room you are playing in?
Don't leave anything lying around because it can quickly end up becoming anything. But it promises eventful games... ;)
We can also adapt games to make them life-size formats where we are at the heart of the game.
For example, this is what I did for the 5th anniversary by offering you a giant Mad Trip in the store!
What a pleasure to have seen you having fun enjoying the course that I have proposed to you, both the youngest and the oldest!
For the store's 6th anniversary, I plan to offer you an original game to celebrate with you!
Brain gymnastics is always relevant whether we play a game outdoors or around a table, because we have to admit, we generally like to win. ;)
We know that we cannot win all the time, but at least we will have won in strategy, in deduction, in logic, in resources, but above all in good times shared around board games.
In short, we will continue to move to play the game in Vaison and elsewhere. ;)
Good day and good game ;)
