White Night wasn’t the only game in town this weekend — far from it.

Hundreds of games spilled out from boxes large and small as Shepparton’s board game festival ShepparCon returned.

More than 100 people joined the celebration of all things board game at the GV Hotel, which was the first without coronavirus restrictions.

Last year’s event had limited numbers due to density limits, but the weekend’s conventions had no such restrictions.

Gamers were also given the chance to try out some unreleased Australian games.
