Board gaming and the board gaming business tend to peak as families and friends gather for the holidays. But, like everything else, it's at the mercy of economic and geopolitical peaks and troughs. Kwan's personal favourite is Ark Nova, about putting animals in a zoo and releasing them back into the wild.

"We named our store D6 Tabletop because of a six-sided dice — a D6 is what's commonly used in Dungeons and Dragons, but it's also the dice that most people would recognize."Kwan said Christmas is the busiest time of year. A number of families have already made reservations, companies have booked holiday parties and the café has even hosted one wedding.

Skibitzky said the clientele ranges from children to older folks looking to play games from their youth. She said sales are down compared with last year, though up from two years ago. She said there have been fewer holiday parties and visits from individual patrons due to economic pressures.
