WarWizard Games

WarWizard Games is a game store in downtown Buena Vista, Colorado, at 301 E Main St, inside BV Square. It sells Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon cards alongside board games, role-playing games, Warhammer and miniatures, and it runs a Thursday night Magic event. It suits Magic players in the Buena Vista area who want a regular weeknight game, and tabletop gamers who want a broad shelf in a small-town store.

What's on the shelves

Trading cards are one part of a wider game inventory. Magic: The Gathering stock leans toward sealed product: play boosters, draft boosters, set boosters and Jumpstart boosters across many recent sets, with single packs priced at roughly $6 to $9. A new Magic set, Reality Fracture, released on October 2, 2026. The store also carries Pokémon cards and Riftbound.

Beyond cards, the store stocks board games (Spirit Island, Root and Wingspan are among the titles), role-playing games and rulebooks, Warhammer, miniatures and hobby supplies, and game accessories. The in-store assortment includes Kickstarter exclusives and hard-to-find classic games, and staff will look for something that is not on the shelf when asked. The in-store and online assortments differ, so it is worth confirming that a specific item is on hand before making the trip.

Weekly play

Thursday is Magic night, and the event space, called WarWizard's Arena, is on the second floor at Suite 240. A full event calendar is not set in advance, so confirm the next game night, start time and any signup requirements with the store before heading over.

Events

Beyond the Thursday Magic night, the store has run a mix of community events. A Dungeons & Dragons night ran on Fridays when the Magic night launched in 2024, and the store has hosted Warhammer events, including a Kill Team tournament in the fall of 2024 and a large Warhammer 40k event weekend in January 2025. Early Magic events at the store were unofficial, and the store has no confirmed organized-play programs.

Store policies

Eligible items can be returned within 30 days with a receipt or proof of purchase, as long as they are unused and in original packaging. Sale items and gift cards cannot be returned, and returns must be requested before anything is sent back.

Hours and getting there

The shop is at 301 E Main St, Suite 235, in BV Square in downtown Buena Vista, Colorado 81211.

History

The store grew out of its owner's four decades of gaming, which began with Avalon Hill titles such as Blitzkrieg, Diplomacy and Civilization and moved on to role-playing with Blackmoor, an early Dungeons & Dragons setting, and Glorantha, the world behind RuneQuest. The owner is a regular at the tables, playing favorite games weekly in the shop. Its first Magic event, in May 2024, ran in the Suite 240 arena, and the first week of back-to-back Magic and Dungeons & Dragons nights followed that spring.

Who it suits

WarWizard Games fits Magic players looking for a Thursday locals night, families and tabletop gamers who want board games and role-playing books to browse, and Warhammer players in the Buena Vista area who want a local community.
