🥹 2025 was WILD, y’all 🥹

In the midst of chaos and uncertainty at the local, national and global levels, you all showed up.

You showed up for game nights and book clubs, ren faires and book launches. You showed up for stories of fantasy and frivolity, resistance and justice. You showed up for the shop, for our team, and for each other.

Y’all really just blow me away, and I cannot wait to see what next year has in store for us…!

Here’s to you 🍻



Okay our “short rest” includes several days of counting full-store inventory, but the point is, we won’t be open for browsing!

So come get your goodies (or spend those gift cards you got over the holidays) before we close for a week.

And don’t forget to get your tickets for the Nerd Swap, happening on the 8th when we get back! Bring your books, games, dice and puzzles to and swap ‘em with fellow goblin nerds ☺️ Tickets at my linktree up top!

❄️ Hours til the end…! ❄️

We are SO CLOSE to closing out 2025, y’all, am I’m so proud of us 🥹

We’ll be open a bit between Christmas and New Year’s to see all your shining faces, but then we’ll close for the first week of the year to do inventory and take a bit of a breather.

Until then, though, we’re here for ya!

⚔️ SOMERCON TICKETS ARE LIVE! ⚔️

VIP tickets are on sale now, and general admission goes live this Friday at 10am. (Note: you MUST have a main event entry ticket to get those extra add-ons for games and workshops!)

It’s taken a village-sized adventuring party to pull all of this incredible programming together, and we can’t wait to get nerdy with all of you.

Head to the Eventbrite page in our linktree to snag your games before they’re gone…!

Yours in epic fantasy,
Caroline from Side Quest and Allan from Danger Wizard 💜
✨ Discounts and free minis THIS FRIDAY! ✨

So here’s the thing. Sometimes, in the book world, you do a big order of stuff directly from a publisher, but then that publisher’s shipping and tracking site doesn’t have up-to-date data, so you freak out about having enough stock for the holiday rush, so you put in a separate order with a different wholesaler that ships more quickly and reliably… and then the first order shows up too.

Now, we’re not saying that WE did that (😳), but we DO have a bunch of inventory just waiting for all you final-week holiday shoppers — so we’re adding some extra incentives to come check it out this Friday before the final weekend rush!

THIS FRIDAY THE 19TH, get a FREE mimic or owlbear with every purchase while supplies last! You can also take a chance and roll our 20-sided die to see if you hit a natural 20 — if you do, take 20% off your entire purchase.

See you soon! 🦉🐻

P.S. Minis printed, painted and donated by our incredible friend Corey. He also did the winged black cats we got to give away on Halloween! Everyone say thanks, Corey!!
😈 GOBLIN MONTH!! 😈

Don’t ask us why, but January just feels #goblin. So we’re leaning into that and going full feral!

Goblin-themed game nights, book launches, book/game/puzzle/dice swaps… something for every big-eared goblin out there.

Starting 2026 off as we mean to continue, ya know?

Yours in goblinhood,
Caroline & the Side Quest Crew

P.S. Everyone say thank you Gabe for the incredible they/them goblin art, we’re obsessed 💜
🗓️ January events drop Monday! 🗓️

Want to get notifications as soon as events go live? Subscribe to our Eventbrite profile and sign up to get emails! Some of our game nights sell out quick, so that’s the best way to make sure you get the spot you want.

There’s one big exception: SomerCon tickets will go live THIS WEDNESDAY, DEC 17! But the rest of the Side Quest events will be up tomorrow (Monday) late morning.

Looking forward to ringing in another year with you lovely goobers 💚
😳😳😳

Y’all SHOWED UP for these applications!! It’s been a joy to read though them, and we’re so excited for the programming that we get to put together.

Look for communication coming from!

Yours in epic con prep,
Caroline and Allan
🎄Our winners are in…! 🎄

We’re starting to reflect on all the books and games that y’all have loved this year, and you’ve made some ✨excellent✨ choices! This is just a small sample of our bestsellers, but there’s something here for everyone on your list.

The holidays are nearly upon us so come swing by!

💚❤️💙🤍
Thanks to everyone who came to the game designer meetup this morning!

That much creative energy really gives the space a boost, ya know?

We’ll have a meetup at SomerCon next month, and maybe another one at the shop besides.

Go forth and make dope shit 🫶
