Kaos Gamer Lounge

Kaos Gamer Lounge is a game store and play space at 2522 N State Rd 7 in Margate, built around tables and seating as much as shelves. It carries five trading card games, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, One Piece Card Game, Disney Lorcana and Flesh and Blood, and it runs a steady calendar of prereleases and tournaments. It suits players who want somewhere to sit and play, and it stays open late most nights.

What's on the shelves

Sealed product is stocked for all five card games, along with Gundam products and singles. The store also sells Marvel's Spider-Man products and has carried Final Fantasy Universes Beyond releases, and a run of vintage Pokémon cards has gone into stock. Beyond trading cards, the store keeps a large library of classic and modern board games and card games, from family-friendly titles to heavier strategy games, and gift cards are sold at the counter.

Events and organized play

Prereleases are a regular part of the schedule. The store has hosted Lorwyn Eclipsed prerelease events in a run of four, an Edge of Eternities prerelease that included a free raffle drawing, a Flesh and Blood Super Slam prerelease and a One Piece prerelease. A Regional Championship Qualifier was scheduled for Saturday, May 16.

A Commander League gives Magic players an ongoing format, and a weekly tournament called Blades Of Kaos has run on Thursday nights. Tournament entry can be paid for online ahead of an event. Riftbound has also been added to the schedule. Specific dates shift with each release, so the event lineup changes from month to month.

The space

The lounge is laid out with spacious gaming tables and cozy seating areas, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The store welcomes beginners and experienced players alike, and game nights run alongside the card events, so strangers often end up at the same table.
