Chance Encounter Games — Local services in Seattle

Love this place! The owner is SUPER kind and chill, and they have a surprisingly good selection of indie and mainstream TTRPG stuff. Also some great options for paints, brushes, and D&D minis, which was fun to see. They have a really nice space for gaming and a ton of excellent local and indie arts and crafts and accessories. I love them and I can't wait to go back.

(Note that the picture of the shelf of awesome indie ttrpg stuff looks a little light; that's not their typical stock level, they were SUPER busy opening week and this was taken while their reorders were still on the way, they have even more cool...

The decor of this place is insanely cool, and the options of stuff to get is amazing. I always find something new to see every time I go there. Everything from jewelry and stickers and notebooks, to nerdy plushies and home decor, to ttrpg books, mini figures and paint supplies, etc. A lot of the unique things in the store come from local artists! You can tell the owner is trying to build a space that is more than just a shop, but also a place...

An undoubtedly special shop! The owner, Dante, is a true master at curating a welcoming, safe, and exciting atmosphere for people who are new to playing games, diehard veterans, or somewhere in between. Absolutely worth your time to come in and linger a while - whether to snag a lil treat and some new dice from the pool, or to hang out and play in one of the shop's campaigns. The world is a better place because of community spaces...
