The Death of a Gaming Store


On April 25th, my local game store Shieldbreakers Games closed its doors permanently. We were only given a week and a half's notice, but we managed to re-claim our terrain again and keep our community together via our facebook group. This unexpected "homelessness" has us scrambling to find games at other stores and at each other's houses, and thankfully that's not going too badly. But why did this happen? What does this mean for our hobby club?
