In April, Common Ground Games celebrated the re-opening of its larger space for its ever-growing game-play and customer base.
But for owners and husbands Jamison Sacks and DR Hanson, the growth isn’t just a reflection of the shop’s success, it’s a gift to the game-playing community that has found a home there — a home that had become a little crowded in the original space. “We were running out of space to comfortably hold people and events in the store,” Hanson said by phone. “We kind of plateaued in how we could serve the gaming community of Dallas.
We were hosting events every night, and we had thought about expanding about a year-and-a-half after we first opened nine years ago.” A few weeks ago, that new space opened with a bigger and better Common Ground Games.
