You might now have realized it but since April 2008, a new board gaming shop has been open on 2493 E. Chapman Ave. near Cal State Fullerton. After long deliberations, the shop was named DiceHouse Games and Tuan Le is the person who runs the operation. Tuan, whose background is in fantasy illustration, worked for a retail game store until the store?s closure. Faced with finding a new job, he decided to open up his own shop dedicated only to board games. And with the help of his friends, he chose the name DiceHouse Games. ?One common theme with table top games is dice. Board games use dice, role play games use dice?.. One of my friends said okay Dice House and I was like, that?s perfect,? says Tuan.
DiceHouse Games hopes to create a table top gaming community, where customers can play and be themselves. ?If you create a community it?s something lasting and it keeps on going and growing ?.. I don?t need one or two people to buy a lot of stuff.? I want hundreds of people to buy little bit and that will make me happier because that means there are more people playing and there is more people to play with.?
In a world, where there are vast amount of board games that exist, Tuan tries not to focus on the normal board games such as Life or Monopoly. Instead, he focuses on fantasy, sci-fi, supernatural, and zombie board games. Before visiting this shop, I didn?t know there were any other forms of Monopoly games other than the original but boy was I wrong, I found Marvel comics Monopoly. I love to play the game of Monopoly and I like the Marvel characters, so it is the best of both worlds coming together.
To implement a sense of community, DiceHouse Games holds various events weekly for customers to hang out and have fun while taking part in playing games.? From Wednesdays through Sundays, there are always some form of events being held such as role playing games, board games, and Magic events. Magic events sometimes require a small fee, but some are free. ?And role playing and board games are also free for customers.
So if you are tired of playing video games and only interacting with a screen, try playing board games at DiceHouse Games, where you can interact and have fun with real human beings.
