Command Zone Games Brings New Products to DowntownCommand Zone Games celebrated its grand opening on Thursday, April 18, at their 555 Poplar Street location. Command Zone sells supplies for table top gaming, including Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards. In addition, there will be space for tournaments of 100 or more people.

Command Zone Games will be open…
