| I thought it might be interesting to create a list of game stores anywhere in the world that folks could use as a resource.
Any stores that either sell gaming stuff and/or provide places to play are fair game. So please post your favorite store and maybe some quick details about it. What it's focus is? What it sells? Room to play? Anything else?
Format
Store Name
Store Location (full address please)
email address (If you know it)
A sentence or three as a brief description of the store (optional but encouraged. Give others an idea what the shop is like.)

| The Game Shop
3307 S Westnedge Ave
Kalamazoo, MI 49008
(269) 344-1818
no email address
The Game Shop has room for about 20 players, maybe a few more. There is a standing 25% discount on all RPG materials. A few of the folks you know such as myself, bshugg, and others do a decent amount of playing here.

| Anywhere in the world? How about:-
Western Australia
Oscar's Card Shop
Station Street Markets, Subiaco, Western Australia
(somewhere down Crafty Lane)
Note: Best prices for minis related WotC stuff, and friendliest LGS staff I've met.
Tactics
London Court, Perth, Western Australia
(look for the dodgy stairs to the basement)
Note: Best variety of gaming related stuff I've ever seen; some rare and out of print stuff can be found here. Staff are pretty friendly, too.
Singapore
Paradigm Infinitum
220 Orchard Road #03-01, Midpoint Orchard, Singapore 238852
http://www.pi.com.sg
Note: Lots of events and staff have a great sense of humour. Prices are probably the best, but variety is selected... you may have to order in what you want.
Cheers. | |
