Back the game, build the tavern

“Every great campaign starts in a tavern.” So we decided to build one. This Kickstarter funds two things:

  • The D&D one-shot trilogy: The Legend of Grunk’s Tavern
  • Upgrades and decorations for our immersive game shop coming to Antwerp, also called Grunk’s Tavern

Coming to Antwerp, late 2026

Grunk’s Tavern (IRL)

We’re about to open the most immersive local game store in the heart of Antwerp, Grunk’s Tavern. The ultimate spot for TTRPG, TCG, board game and PC gaming enthusiasts. This is our space right now:

  • Tons of events

By Game Master Worlds

We’re Nathan and Shiu, friends turned business partners. After two successful Kickstarter campaigns, we’re now taking on our most ambitious project yet: Grunk’s Tavern. Nathan had long dreamed of building an immersive, atmospheric TTRPG gaming café, while Shiu had always wanted to open an escape room. The shared vision was clear: creating an immersive experience was key.
