SABO BOARDGAMES CAFE, first board games cafe in Ipoh.
While it is common to see cybercafes proliferating around town, cafés dedicated to older forms of entertainment such as board and card games are starting to gain a loyal base among youths. These games range from casual ones that take several minutes to in-depth, tactical or role-playing ones where one campaign can take from a few hours to days to complete.
Locally, due to a lack of awareness on its varieties – most Malaysians are familiar with only games such as Monopoly or Uno, which are considered an “old school” form of entertainment. However, in Europe and America, there is an avid, booming community centred on these games to the point that there are hundreds of newly-published games each year in these locations.
However, despite the challenge, local businesses are holding on to their conviction to serve a niche in the market and are determined to stand their ground to grow those numbers.
Name taken from the famous board games Saboteur, SABO BOARDGAMES CAFÉ, first board games café in ipoh has finally open their business to public. This café provides us variety of board games to choose from monopoly to battlestar galatica. If you were to travel to ipoh, do not hesitate to drop by. Worth every single penny.
