Something absolutely chaotic is coming to Purple Dragon Games on May 30, and honestly, we could not be more excited. We are officially hosting our FIRST EVER Chaos Draft: Festival in a Box, inspired by the insanity of MagicCon Las Vegas 2026. This is also a huge moment for us because we are excited to officially introduce more dedicated Magic support here at Purple Dragon Games with Director of MTG Jonathan Alvarez and Game Leader Wyatt Kendall joining the crew to help guide player experiences, organize events, answer questions, and help us create more awesome things for the local MTG community. Jonathan personally hand-picked this event because he wanted to kick things off with something memorable. Not just another draft night. Not another “normal” set release. He wanted something players would be talking about weeks later. And trust us… this is going to be one of THOSE nights. For players unfamiliar with Chaos Draft, here’s the quick explanation: instead of everybody drafting the same set, packs come from wildly different places across Magic history. Every booster feels like opening a portal to a different timeline. One minute you’re drafting goofy silver-border chaos cards. The next minute you’re staring at an old-school retro-frame bomb, a phyrexian nightmare creature, a bizarre Secret Lair reprint, or a card so obscure the entire table has to stop and read it together. This is the kind of draft where absolutely ridiculous things happen. You might build what feels like a perfectly normal red aggro deck… then lose to somebody who drafted an ancient enchantment nobody has seen in fifteen years. Somebody else might accidentally stumble into a combo that was never supposed to exist because cards from completely different eras suddenly collided at the same table. One player could be summoning goblins and causing complete nonsense while another player across the room is casting giant eldritch horrors from beyond the Blind Eternities. And honestly? That’s the magic of Chaos Draft. This event is not about solving a perfectly balanced format. It’s about discovery, reactions, weird interactions, laughter, and those moments where the entire room erupts because someone just resolved the most unhinged card imaginable. We know some people may look at the $35 entry and wonder why it costs more than a regular draft. Totally fair question. Festival in a Box products are premium and extremely limited. These boxes were originally connected to MagicCon Las Vegas and contain a massive mix of specialty products, mystery-style boosters, unique reprints, and unusual draft experiences you normally do not get at a standard Friday Night Magic event. This is less like a normal draft and more like cracking open a chaotic Magic treasure chest. For a closer look, check out our friends unboxing video at MTG Unpacked! The best part? You absolutely do NOT need to be a tournament grinder to enjoy this event. In fact, Chaos Draft is often MORE welcoming because nobody fully knows what to expect. Veteran players may recognize old mechanics, but everyone is reacting to the madness together. You are going to see players laughing, reading weird cards out loud, making terrible choices for the memes, and surviving completely absurd board states by pure luck and topdecks blessed by the cardboard gods. We will also have support ready throughout the night. A judge will be available to help answer questions and navigate strange interactions, and Wyatt will be helping players throughout the event as well. Since this is our first Chaos Draft, we want the experience to feel exciting and approachable whether you’ve been playing for twenty years or just recently learned how to tap lands. The event will run Swiss rounds, with prize tickets awarded based on wins. Those tickets can be redeemed for store credit toward packs, singles, snacks, or whatever catches your eye in the store. Players who reserve tickets online or in-store ahead of time will also receive FREE pizza and soda during the event so we can order food accordingly. This is a limited-seat event, and we genuinely expect it to fill quickly. Between the rarity of Festival in a Box, the Chaos Draft format, and the curiosity surrounding what is actually inside these packs, there has already been a lot of excitement building around this one. The lights are warming up. The packs are waiting! And somewhere inside this box is a card that is about to completely ruin somebody’s evening in the funniest possible way. Head over and buy your tickets online!

Festival in a Box 2026 — Mystery Box 2 is coming to Yreka I still can’t quite believe I’m writing this, but Festival in a Box 2026 — Mystery Box 2  is actually coming to Purple Dragon Games … which means Yreka is about to experience its first ever Chaos Draft . This is one of those moments where the Magic community gets a tiny portal to something that normally only happens in major cities like Las Vegas. MagicCon events feel almost mythic when you follow them online. Packed halls, collectors hunting for elusive pulls, Commander tables firing nonstop, and draft pods forming every few minutes like ritual circles of cardboard strategy. We wanted to bring a small piece of that experience here. And honestly… getting these boxes felt like a quest. We did not receive any special treatment or priority. With the help of one of our local Magic veterans, we joined the online queue early one Monday morning when Secret Lair opened orders. We sat in the digital waiting room for over an hour, watching the timer tick down like a suspenseful upkeep phase. Even after waiting, there is never a guarantee you will actually be able to purchase one. The process is famously intense. You wait. Then suddenly… you are randomly teleported to checkout. From there, you have ten minutes  to complete your order or the box disappears back into the aether for someone else to claim. No holds. No extensions. Miss the window and the opportunity is gone. That rarity is part of what makes these boxes legendary. Festival in a Box products are designed to replicate the MagicCon experience at home, and Mystery Box editions in particular are famous for their unpredictable card pools, unexpected reprints, and unique draft environments that feel completely different from normal set drafts. A Chaos Draft is exactly what it sounds like: each pack comes from a different set or environment, meaning every pick feels like solving a new puzzle. Synergies appear in unexpected ways. Strategies evolve mid-draft. Deck-building becomes a creative challenge rather than a solved formula. No two Chaos Draft decks ever feel the same. Mystery Box releases are especially loved because they often include: a massive variety of cards across Magic history valuable reprints players rarely see in circulation unusual draft interactions that reward clever thinking surprises that can’t easily be predicted or replicated Last year’s Mystery Box 1 created waves across the Magic community, with players sharing stories of wild pulls, strange deck combinations, and the sheer fun of drafting outside the normal meta structure. Headlines and community discussions focused on how these boxes brought back the feeling of discovery that many players felt in earlier eras of Magic. Part of the excitement is the projected card value. Mystery Boxes often contain cards that hold strong secondary market interest, and the wide card pool increases the chances of encountering powerful staples or unexpected gems. While no product guarantees value, the reputation of Mystery Box releases has created significant buzz among collectors and competitive players alike. Because of the rarity and cost of obtaining these boxes, this draft will likely be priced higher than our typical draft events. We want to be transparent about that. However, this is also one of those experiences that players often only encounter once or twice, unless they travel to major conventions. This is not just about opening packs.It is about participating in something memorable. We wanted to bring something special to the Magic community here that is normally difficult to access locally. Something that feels like an event. Something that creates stories. Dates and pricing will be announced once we receive shipping confirmation and finalize fair event structure details. We want to make sure this experience is handled thoughtfully so that it feels exciting, welcoming, and worth the investment. For now, we can simply say: Chaos is coming. And Yreka is getting a little taste of MagicCon.

Purple Dragon Games is excited to share a new chapter in our story. We have just released the first episode of a video series that takes you inside our renovation and growth journey. This series offers a close and personal look at the heart of our project, showing how a small family-owned business with a deep passion is transforming a space to better serve the community. In this post, you will discover what the inside of our building looked like when we began work in November 2025, hear about the exclusive music created for the series, and learn why this journey means so much to us. The Beginning of Our Renovation Journey When we first stepped into the building in November 2025, it was clear that the space needed a lot of work. The walls were worn, the floors uneven, and the lighting dim. Yet, beneath the surface, we saw potential. This was not just a building; it was a place where dreams could grow and where the community could come together. Our video series captures this moment in vivid detail. You can see the raw state of the space before any changes were made. This transparency is important to us because it shows the real effort and care that goes into every step of the renovation. We want our community to feel connected to this process, to see the challenges and the progress as if they were right there with us. Music That Brings the Story to Life One unique feature of our video series is the exclusive music soundtrack. Produced right here in Yreka, the music combines local talent with modern production technology. This soundtrack is more than background noise; it reflects the spirit of Purple Dragon Games and the energy we bring to this project. The music adds an emotional layer to the visuals, helping viewers feel the excitement and hope that come with building something new. It’s a reminder that this journey is not just about physical changes but about creating a vibrant, welcoming space for everyone. Our Family-Owned Business and Community Focus Purple Dragon Games is a small family-owned business fueled by passion. We are not just renovating a building; we are building a future for our community. Our dream is to create a place where people can gather, play, learn, and grow together. This video series is a way for us to share that dream openly. We want to invite the community into our story, showing how every nail hammered and every wall painted is part of a larger vision. It’s about growth, connection, and the joy of creating something meaningful. What You Can Expect from the Series The first episode is just the beginning. Future episodes will document each stage of the renovation, highlighting the challenges we face and the solutions we find. You will meet the people behind Purple Dragon Games, from family members to local artisans and experts who contribute their skills. We will also share stories from community members who visit the space, showing how this project is already starting to make an impact. Whether you are a longtime supporter or new to Purple Dragon Games, this series offers a chance to be part of something special. How You Can Get Involved We believe that community growth happens when people come together. Watching the series is one way to stay connected, but there are other ways to join us on this journey: Visit the space once renovations allow, to see the progress firsthand. Share your ideas and feedback to help shape the future of Purple Dragon Games. Support local talent by enjoying the music and creative work featured in the series. Spread the word to friends and neighbors who might be interested in our story. Your involvement helps us build a stronger, more vibrant community. Looking Ahead As we continue this renovation, our commitment remains clear: to create a space that serves and grows with the community. The video series is a window into that process, showing the real work and passion behind every step. We invite you to watch the first episode and follow along as Purple Dragon Games transforms not just a building, but the possibilities for connection and creativity in our town. Together, we can build something lasting and meaningful.

GO WARHAMMER 40K IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WARHAMMER 40K Warhammer 40K war games are now in Siskiyou County at Purple Dragon Games in Northern California. All experience levels are welcome, from new players learning tabletop miniature wargaming to seasoned Warhammer 40,000 veterans. You do not need your own army to play—bring your collection if you have one, or join in and learn with the help of our growing local Warhammer community. WARHAMMER OPEN PLAY Warhammer Open Play is a casual, community-focused tabletop gaming session where players bring their Warhammer armies to play relaxed games without the pressure of a tournament. There are no brackets or eliminations—just friendly matches, practice games, and opportunities to learn. Players can set up games at agreed point levels, try new army lists, or play shorter learning skirmishes. All experience levels are welcome. If you are new to Warhammer, experienced players are happy to teach the rules, explain strategies, and sometimes even share their collections so you can try the game without owning an army. Warhammer Open Play is about building community, learning the game, and getting miniatures on the table in a welcoming environment. COMMAND COUNCIL Warhammer Command Council is Purple Dragon Games’ dedicated gathering for players ready to jump straight into full Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition battles. Hosted by Purple Dragon Games and run in partnership with the State of Jefferson War Gamers and the Lords of Dale Gaming Club, this event focuses on complete, long-form games designed for players with existing Warhammer experience. Command Council is built for intermediate to advanced players who understand the basics and are ready to deploy armies and play full matches that often last several hours. You can expect to see veteran hobbyists, experienced commanders, and tournament-level players sharing the tables in a friendly but focused play environment. While everyone is welcome to attend, this is not a learn-to-play session. The goal is to provide a reliable space where players can arrive prepared and enjoy meaningful, uninterrupted games. Although the event officially begins at 1 PM, many players arrive early (store opens at noon) to set up terrain, review army lists, and coordinate matchups so games can begin right on time. Bringing your own Warhammer army is strongly recommended. Once battles begin, tables are typically committed for the duration of the game, so late arrivals may find it difficult to join mid-session. Warhammer Command Council offers a consistent home for serious tabletop wargaming in Siskiyou County, combining experienced play, impressive collections, and a welcoming community atmosphere for those ready to take the battlefield.
