Hey everyone — we wanted to share an update on our Bellevue gaming space.
On Saturday evening, we experienced a leak that caused some significant damage. With the help of Eyman Plumbing and Deep Water Emergency Services, the affected areas are currently being cleaned and stabilized. Thanks to their quick response. A huge shout-out to our incredible staff and Arthur for volunteering his time and sweat, we’ve been able to put together a temporary solution that allows us to reopen the gaming space.
That said, things will look a little different for a while.
Because we had to evacuate our office area, that equipment now lives in what would normally be gaming space. This means:
The play area is smaller than usual- One full row of tables/flex space is currently unavailable
- We’re actively rearranging to make the space as comfortable and functional as possible
- Adjustments may happen on the fly as we continue to assess the situation
- We’re doing everything we can to avoid canceling events, but some compromises are unavoidable while repairs continue.
What this means for weekly gaming:
We currently have one working restroom (not ideal, but functional!)
Fewer tables = fewer games available
Some events may be shifted to our Omaha location to avoid capacity issues
Unfortunately, with the cold weather, we’re limited in how much inventory we can move right now. As soon as temperatures allow, we’ll continue reorganizing to improve the space.
We truly appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and support while we work through this. Our goal is to get back to full capacity as quickly and safely as possible — and we’ll keep you updated as much as possible.
Thank you for sticking with us.
