Bellisseria Gaming Club

 
By Bixyl Shuftan

Not too long ago, I heard about a place in the Linden Home continent where people could go play a game, the "Bellisseria Gaming Club." It is located in one of the homes in the Zwischen. The home itself is owned by Sophia Falta, who also founded the club. Dulcinea Andretti is the manager.

The Bellisseria Gaming Club is open to Belli residents and beyond, of all ages and species. Various games available, from 1 to 8 at one table. Hearts, Greedy, Hand & Foot, Cheesy 3D, Chess, Mahjong, Yacht 5, Game of UR, Reversi, Mancala, etc.

Dropping by, from the outside it looked much like any other two story conventional Linden Home, a blue coat of paint and an address "75220" on the porch, save for a sign next to the door "Bellisseria Gaming Club." Straight ahead inside, there's a group joiner next to the stairwell. The ground floor has three games: Cheesy, Hand & Foot, and Greedy. The room with the Greedy games has two tables, plus a sign explaining the rules. There's also a coffee table where one can get a cup of the caffinated beverage. Second floor has Hearts, Skippo, and a room with three games, Ur, Reversi, and Mancala.

Taking a look in the back, there were a few more games. I found a chess set, and a table to play Majong, as well as a comical-looking game of Hangman. Less easy to see, next to the swimming pool was a small game of Bubble Pop, and on the steps was "Tournament Tic Tac Toe." There was also some children's games such as hopstoch, a see-saw, and a merry-go-round.

If one wants to go by sheer volume of them, there's many more at Montecito Bay's Firecracker Arcade and the Boardgame Beach area. But for a Bellisseria home, the place does have a lot of games.

Correction. Originally, Dulcinea Andretti was described as the house owner. This has been corrected.
