Here in the Search nav, you can.... SEARCH. Start typing a game or gamer, it will autosuggest. Press one to go, or hit Enter to get the full search results.
Below the searchbox, you'll see recent games, gamers, clubs, events, and quests you've visited.
Below that is the full site map with all of the different pages on this platform. Most of these are accessible in the other navs too. But here they're all in one place, if you're into that sort of thing.
Jump in a virtual or IRL event, tournament, or league. Participate in a Quest (a gaming challenge that you can do any time). Channel 3 has something for all skill levels, including gaming-focused daily minigames.
Go to Events below to search for real-time tournaments or other events. Quests will show you offline challenges you can complete at any time.
You may have friends here already, or you may meet your next lifelong squadmate here. Either way, Channel 3 is most fun when you find your people and can have friendly competitions and participate in challenges together.
Below you can navigate all the gamers, clubs, and causes on Channel 3.

Whether it's 1 to 2, or 99 to 100, leveling up is the best feeling in the world. On Channel 3, when you participate in quests, when your post gets 1Up'd, when you crush a daily minigame, you get XP. Get 1k XP, and you level up and unlock rewards. Rewards can be custom reaction GIFs, cool backgrounds, or prize wheel spins for IRL gaming gear or in game currency.
Turbo is an optional subscription for superusers. You don't need Turbo to enjoy Channel 3. Turbo users get early access to new features, and are able to unlock more levels in a season.
On Channel 3, seasons last 3 months. They will always run January 1 - April 1, April 1 - July 1, July 1 - October 1, and October 1 - January 1.
Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.
Tap Add on the prompt.
BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
I played Azul for the first time at a friend’s house a few years ago. It’s very easy to learn but takes a bit to get the strategy down. Set up and cleanup are easy too! Your goal is to collect til...more

Game of Life: Mario edition.
My son got it for Christmas and it's nothing like the normal Life board game. It is essentially a Mario Party board game. You collect stars by getting to specific spa...more
I know it's not a "board" game but DOMINION! Easy to learn, plenty of content just in the base set, but can get crazy with expansions. So much fun, it's definitely a go-to for me!
I think one of the best gateways into more complex games would be Munchkin.
There is all different versions and most are able to combine.
I am still looking for a version of Adventure Time Muchkin...more
I mean shouldn’t something like Candyland be on the list? Getting kids hooked at an early age to eventually want to play increasingly more complex games? Need to start somewhere.
This is THE shuffle building game. My wife and I preorder every single expansion. The best feature is that we've never run into a situation where we were unsure of the rules or how the wording of one ...more

This is going to sound like a troll, but the board game that really got me into it was Betrayal on House on the Hill. Just complex enough to reflect the broadness of boardgame possibilities, but also ...more
