Magic singles, sealed product, and ten tables of open play on Tamiami Trail.
Open late — until 2 AM Friday & Saturday
When we're open
On the shelves
We're a Wizards Play Network store, which means prerelease access and allocation product — the limited releases that sell out everywhere else. Singles are pulled, sleeved and priced in house.
An Origins Awards finalist indie TCG — three bug alliances fighting under the cosmic avatars Sol, Luna and Mars. Sealed product and singles in stock, and we run events for it.
In September we're hosting one of the game's official 1K tournaments. Details below.
Launching here in August with our first event. If you've been waiting for a shop nearby to pick it up, this is it — come learn it with the rest of us.
Plus sleeves, deck boxes, playmats and dice — and cold drinks and snacks while you play.
What's next
We'd rather tell you what's coming than pretend it's already here. These are in motion right now.
Our first allocation lands in September with the 30th anniversary releases.
We're building the player base first — Bandai allocates to stores with an active community, so that's where we're starting.
Featured event
Shard Bugs is an Origins Awards finalist trading card game — three bug alliances fighting under the cosmic avatars Sol, Luna and Mars. Only a handful of official 1K tournaments run each year, and one of them is happening here.
The game's CEO is running it in person. You don't need to have played before — bring a deck or come learn.
Call the shop to reserve a seat — space is limited to the tables we have.
Tabletop RPG
Most D&D groups fall apart because someone can't make it three weeks running. The Lamplight Society exists to fix that — consistent sessions, at the shop, that actually happen. Pick the intensity you want.
We have a dedicated D&D room — a door that closes, not a corner of the shop floor. No shuffling cards or tournament calls bleeding into your session.
Games are run by the shop's own dungeon masters, including the owner. These aren't volunteer-of-the-week tables — they're prepped, they run on schedule, and they keep going.
Running now: Monday and Thursday, every week. More tables are forming.

Warm and social. Story over stakes, low pressure — good for new players and anyone who wants to roll dice and laugh.
The standard table. Real dungeons, real danger, a party that has to think. The classic adventure.
Extreme tier. Scarce resources, things in the dark, and characters who can absolutely die. Bring a backup sheet.
The play space
The play area is open any time we are. Bring a deck, bring a board game, or come find a pod — no entry fee to sit down and play.
Commander runs most nights. Friday and Saturday go until 2 AM.
A regular group plays open board games most Saturdays — free, no entry fee, and anyone can pull up a chair. Bring a game or learn one of theirs.
Prerelease weekends are the exception; the tables go to Magic those days.
Sanctioned events are run by a WPN-certified judge, so tournaments count and they run properly.
Booking the space for a league, a large event, or a private game day — get in touch and we'll work out the details.

Buying
Bring your Magic cards in and we'll go through them with you. Every buy is done on evaluation — we look at what you have, tell you what we can use, and make an offer on those cards.
Magic singles, evaluated card by card. Walk in any time we're open — no appointment needed.
If you're bringing something substantial, call ahead so we can set aside the time to go through it properly.
Right now we aren't buying bulk, full collections, or singles from other trading card games. We'd rather say so up front than have you drive out here for a no.
That will change as we grow. Ask us where it stands.
