Let’s face it: everyone needs their retreat. We all need somewhere to go when the rest of the world is a little too much for us, when politics starts to get on our nerves and when our families are getting too demanding and the stresses of work are getting worse and worse by the day. When you get home, it’s important to be able to rediscover a small part of yourself – and for many of us, we find ourselves in the games we play. (valium) What we don’t think enough about is the environment in which we game – here are some tips on how to have an incredible games room.

Make Sure You’re Comfortable

This is a room in which you’re supposed to be able to relax, in which you can be more yourself than in any other part of your life, so it’s important that you’re physically as well as emotionally and mentally comfortable. If you enjoy computer games then it’s important to make sure that you have a comfortable chair, especially if you spend a lot of time sitting at a desk at work during the day as well. Make sure that your chair has great lumbar support, and invest in a memory foam cushion if you need to. If you find that you’re starting to get sore wrists and elbows, get a new differently shaped keyboard and something to rest your wrists on when you’re typing. Make sure that your screen is at eye height so you don’t have to bend down or make your neck and back sore to look at it.

Invest In Quirky Furniture

Let’s face it: is there ever anything better than some quirky furniture? It’s often not the sort of thing you can put in the rest of the house so it’s important to be able to really geek out in your games room. Check out Surface Tension for cool furniture based on vintage video games that you might remember from when you were younger! You can also get coffee tables shaped like floppy disks, clocks shaped like guitars, and in fact any furniture that’s based on any interest that you might happen to have. In your games room, it’s time to really indulge yourself and your passions – tell yourself to go for it.

Prepare For Guests

One of the best parts of tabletop games is that they’re incredible social activities. If you’re into them and you like to have gaming nights when you invite your friends over, then it’s important to make sure that your games room is suitably prepared. Ensure that there’s a big table with adequate comfortable seating that’s all at the right height so everyone’s on an equal level. You should also make sure that there’s another flat surface like a table in the room somewhere so you can keep food there without it getting in the way on the table. If you like to have some cold beers within arm’s reach, why not invest in a mini fridge? Make sure that the room is comfortable and welcoming so you can host as many gaming nights as you want in the future.
