While working at Ignite Studio, I’ve seen the overlap of patrons and tabletop game lovers. Many patrons come to Ignite to use our various kits, equipment, and stations to bolster their tabletop games. This has inspired me to write a blog post on just how Ignite can help you take your tabletop game experience to the next level. Discover more ways to use Ignite for tabletop games!

Ignite’s laser engraver is popular for its versatility and functionality. Try laser cutting board maps such as these mix-and-match board tiles, or even making 3D maps to enhance your gameplay!
