GRAND OPENING! COME VISIT US!

No fooling! On April 1, 2025, Desert Rat Games will be opening our Casa Grande location! We are very excited to be serving the gaming and nerdy community of the area and look forward to meeting you all!

The following products and services will be available once we are open to the public!


It can be difficult finding a place to sit down and play Magic, Pokémon, or other games. Desert Rat Games is that place! We have plenty of tables available for you and your friends to lay out a mat and play a hand. We’ve even got gamemats for the popular games.

If you are simply curious about Magic the Gathering or Pokémon and want to learn how to play, we have a solution! We have starter decks available for both games and will sit down and teach you how to play. This is a free service and no cover charge needed.

We have regular league/organized play and tournaments too!

We get it. You like to play with miniatures. Warhammer 40k, Age of Sigmar, Battletech, whatever your game of choice is, come play at Desert Rat Games.

Our wargame tables are perfect for any skirmish or battle you can imagine. Our tables are large, tall, and comfortable for extended play. In addition, we have a wide variety of scatter terrain and map sheets to use to enhance the battlefield.

If your pile of shame is too much, put our Miniature Workstation to use! Workstation cover charge gets you access to our fully stocked paint and miniature assembly area. The station includes paint, brushes, modelling tools, glues, and more! Everything you might need to take your miniatures from plain plastic on a sprue to the next awe inspiring army centerpiece!

Whether it’s just you and a friend or you’re bringing the whole family for a game night, we’ve got something to keep you entertained! Our game library has a wide range of titles, from main-stays like Monopoly or Clue, to popular hobby games like Catan or Ticket to ride, all the way to more unusual games like Monty Python Fluxx and Unspeakable Words!

We’ve also got a deep library of RPG books and materials including D&D, Pathfinder, and more!

Five dollars per person. That’s all it costs to use The Library! In order to provide a high quality and well maintained game space, we utilize a cover charge for access. This grants you full access to the game library, standard tables, wargame tables, and terrain collection.

The Miniature Workstation has a slightly higher cover charge of $10. This includes full access to the miniature assembly and painting station as well as regular game space access.

If you are a frequent user of the game space, library, or Workstation, joining the Rat Pack is a great way to save some money. Rat Pack Elite members get free access to gamespace and half price Workstation!

We Buy and Sell Used Games!

We buy and sell nearly anything game related. Clear out your unused games and trade up to something new! We buy video games, miniatures, RPG books, nearly anything of geeky value!
