Mothership Books and Games opened in August and has since been packing gamers into the store for tournaments and competitions.
Store owner Derrick Crowe said that on a busy night, about 45 people come to the store to play.
"Business has been great. We have exceeded our expectations," Crowe said.
Because of this response, Crowe has expanded the gaming events calendar and now hosts three tournaments a week, up from one. In January, Mothership added a new series of tabletop games called Living Card Games, which include "Star Wars," "Netrunner" and "A Game of Thrones."
"We're really excited about the upcoming year," Crowe said. "We are looking to keep layering on events and following the community demand for games."
Mothership Books and Games also has 20 custom-built computers and charges $5 per hour to play games such as "Diablo."
