How it works

  • From casual to competitive, and easy-to-learn to expert—we foster a community where every type of gameplay is encouraged and enjoyed.

    Free-to-Play Selection: You can enjoy one hour for free when playing from our curated "Free-to-Play" library. This specialized collection includes a variety of easy-to-learn card games and pick-up-and-play board games.

    • Bringing Your Own? The same "one hour free" rule applies if you bring your own games from home.

    • Staying Longer? If you wish to continue playing after your first free hour, each additional hour is only $5/person

    Play Anything: If you want full access to our entire premium library of over 300 games to choose from including heavy strategy titles, party games for large groups, new releases, and kick-starter games, the rate is a flat $5/person, per hour. Play as many games as you like.

    Children under 12 are half price.

    For all game experiences, please check in and receive a game stand with a time stamp.

  • Yes! Please enjoy our cafe’s food and drinks any time. We are open for breakfast & lunch everyday and dinner on Thursday-Saturday. Our hours are M-W: 7am-3pm, Th-Sat: 7am-10pm, Sun: 7am-6pm. We also have a selection of wines, local draft beers, ciders and soju cocktails.

    One of our goals is to bring a friendly, social atmosphere with board games, coffee & food. While we do allow laptops during the daytime until 6pm on weekdays (M-F) there is a 1 hour time limit, and laptops are not allowed after 6pm and on weekends & holidays.

  • We do not take reservations. We operate on a first come first serve basis.
