The fan-favorite Petrie’s traditions returns February 10, 6PM to start off your Valentine season. The Couple’s Dessert is back, complete with the cake, chocolate and two-player games that have built this nearly 14 year tradition.

TheDessert was started in 2010 as a way to bring a romantic twist to board gaming couples. Instructors on games roam the room while your choice of cheese cake or carrot cake, as well as the chocolate fountain. We highlight the best in two-player games, and a few other games that are also “good at 2” but not exclusively 2-player only titles, while you spend time with your favorite person.

We also have a special secret guest this time, along with the “escape room” table, to spice things up!

Tickets are on sale now and are $30 per couple. Call the store or stop by today to reserve your spot.

This is an Adults only event

As many of you know, Friday Night Magic (or FNM) is a staple for most game stores. But we wanted to give our players a little bit more.

Starting in December, we began a monthly league which went really well. So we’re going to continue. Each time you attend and play you rack up points which can qualify you for promos, in-store prizes, Magic product and more. The grand prize is given to the top player each month, and we have some great items lined up.

This January, we’ll be giving away the Silverquill Statement Commander deck plus many other promos and prizes!

Starting in January we are also adding a semi-frequent Magic Standard league on Saturday nights. We have a few tentative dates, so be watching our calendar for specifics. February 10th is our planned start date for the alternate Standard night starting at 6PM.

Don’t forget we still have our Lawnmower Elves Commander League every Tuesday at 6PM too!

We hope that you’ll find more of an excuse to continue playing Magic at Petrie’s through these new additions. See you soon!

The BIG Sidewalk Sale Event at Petries!

Tomorrow, September 16, Petrie’s is putting up 500+ items for sale. While it is meant to be held outside, we’re preparing for the overcast and drizzle, so it may be partially moved into the playspace. Either way it will be well worth your time to come join the party.

Everytime we do an event like this, we get asked if this is signifies us closing our doors. We assure you, the answer is “No.” The reality of retail is that overstock happens. Throw in the usual explanations of supply chains, a boom in the gaming industry and holiday preparation, and the result is overstock… of which, we want to clear out. It’s time to spread some joy! By clearing some shelves we can dust them off and get the newest latest greatest titles that are coming out next!

Toys, puzzles, games, collectibles, miniatures… you name it and it’s likely on sale! We’ve put things on the sale priced anywhere from 20% all the way up to 70%. Plus all the Used Games and Books are ‘buy one get one free’ all day long!

There will be snacks, mystery boxes and of course… PRIZES! For every $25 you spend, you get a ticket added to the drawing. Verify your phone number in our loyalty program and your email for the newsletter (most likely, if you’re reading this, you already have), and you’ll get extra tickets added to the pot! We’ll be doing drawings all day long, so the earlier you come, the more likely you’ll win!

We’re hoping to see all of the Petrie’s fans there and we’re all excited for another day of community and celebration!

KEYFORGE IS THE INNOVATIVE CARD GAME where every deck is a unique combination of cards! No other player will ever wield the same KeyForge deck. Wielding a unique 36-card deck, assuming the role of a powerful Archon, players seeks to maneuver creatures and artifacts from three allied houses to accumulate enough Æmber to forge the vital Vault Keys.
The player to first forge three keys wins!  Will it be you?

When Keyforge broke onto the scene, it was yet another break through for celebrated game designer Richard Garfield. Using a unique algorhytm, the game centered on a full deck that was unique in all of it’s make up, including an orginal deck name and design on the back of the cards, so that collecting and secondary markets were no longer a centerpoint, which is what had happened to so many other collectible card games, include THE card game that had made Garfield royalty in the gaming world.

It featured a great combative playstyle but not one with life points and agressive or defensive elements, but instead it was based more on the race of getting to three keys being forged before the opponent. While combat was a necessary component, it was simply a means to slow down any engine-building that your opponent may be using to propel themeselves ahead in the race.

Top it all off with witty titles, cute and colorful artwork, astounding themes… keyforge was breaking into the card game scene with a solution for any gamer tired of the money-grab strategies of the card game market.

And then it happened…

Something broke the algorhythm.

Keyforge suddenly stopped producing, and while world events were definitely playing a part in it, the concensus was that the design element that made keyforge unique was what actually undermined it’s ongoing production.

Fast forward a few years and bring in the previous owner of Fantasy Flight Games, the company originally repsonsible for bringing Keyforge to the market. Christian started a new company and it’s first mission… bring back Keyforge.

The day is finally here and Keyforge is back on the market. With new innovations and a chance to tweak minor imperfections from the previous sets, the new release for Keyforge was met with overwhelming support in a crowd funding project that has succeeded in launching Keyforge back into the collectible card game market. This game is perfect for new card players and experienced card players alike, this completely original card game is getting it’s time at the table once again at Petrie’s every 2nd, 4th, and 5th Thursdays at 5:30. If you don’t have a deck, we have plenty for you to use and learn.

We believe strongly in this game at PFG and we want to share it with you. There’s really no way to fully explain it’s immersive fun until you’ve actually experienced it yourself. Bring you family, bring yourself, do whatever it takes to show up and let Aaron and the Keyforge group show you what it’s all about.

See you there!

One of the most cherised Petrie’s traditions returns after a 3 year break! February 18th at 5PM, The Couple’s Dessert is back, complete with the cake, chocolate and two-player games that have built this nearly 13 year tradition.

TheDessert was started in 2010 as a way to bring a romantic twist to board gaming couples. Instructors on games roam the room while your choice of cheese cake or carrot cake is served to your table. We highlight the best in two-player games, and a few other games that are also “good at 2” but not exclusively 2-player only titles, while you spend time with your favorite person.

Tickets are on sale now and are $40 per couple. Call the store or stop by today to reserve your spot.

The Magic world was disrupted last week, not due to another amazing set release (although that isn’t to be overlooked), but due to snow storms in Texas. With much scrambling and a few apologies, we were forced to move our prerelease events to this weekend, when our card packs didn’t show in time. We’re still going through with our Magic the Gathering: Phyrexia All Will Be One prerelease tournaments… just a week late.

This means that you still have a chance to play in Sealed Format tournaments starting Friday night, Febrary 10 at 6PM, then again on Saturday morning at 11AM. And what has become the Petrie’s tradition, we’ll launch a 2-Headed Giant team game at 6PM Saturday night.

We’d love to see all of you there, and if you previously signed up for last week’s events, we transfered your name to this week’s sign up sheet to make sure you have a seat.

Innistrad Crimson Vow arrives today! Tonight we start the celebration with a draft of the new cards. This will be a $12 entry with one extra pack per player being added to the prize pool along with other promos. Plus we’re carrying over our prerelease price for all Crimson Vow products through the weekend! Saturday the 20th we have a second draft planned for 1PM and we’ll do it all over again!

Wizards of the Coast has done something unique with this latest releases. Essentially, this return to the world of Innistrad is a reminder of the old block system of releasing sets similar to one another. Starting with Midnight Hunt we saw a focus on the werewolves, and now with Crimson Vow we are back to the Vampires and those that oppose them. This will lead to a joint release early next year when both will be brought together in the much anticipated double-feature release, which also brings the art back to a silver screen Hollywood look. For monster fans, this is a great set dripping with theme.

Petrie’s currently has everything for Crimson Vow in stock so come sink your teeth into it before it flies away (sorry… couldn’t resist).
