Our Story
From a single Catan box to Fitzroy’s favourite games table
We started as a handful of friends who couldn’t find a decent place to play. So we built one — on Kerr Street, with good coffee, honest lighting and shelves that never stop growing.
- 2016
The kitchen-table days
Four friends, one battered Catan box and a standing Thursday-night session that spilled well past midnight.
- 2019
Doors open on Kerr Street
We signed the lease on our Fitzroy space, sanded the floors ourselves and stocked the first 200 titles.
- 2022
The tournament circuit begins
Weekly leagues for Wingspan, Catan and Magic drew regulars from Collingwood, Carlton and beyond.
- 2025
800 games and counting
A dedicated design lab, a kids’ corner and a members’ club now sit under one warm wooden roof.
