We believe it is the responsibility of local business to play an active role in making their communities a better place to live, learn, work and play games. Since opening our doors in October 2008 we have upheld our commitment towards this goal. We have participated in positive loitering events in Edgewater to deter gang violence, hosted events in our shop for local schools and churches, and have donated items for fundraisers.

Additionally, we truely believe it is our mission to support the local gaming community. We support more gaming organizations than any other game store in Chicago. If you're a group organizer, we can provide you with a bright, clean, elegant game space to host your event, totally free. Give us a call or submit our Event Request Form to get started.

We hope to see you soon!
