Forever 10 Gaming has been in business for 14 years and has a big following, making it a great place to shop for Christmas gifts for children and teens. Bob and Amy Torok own the store, and the couple said they opened it over a decade ago because their son Dominic, who was 10 at the time, loved to play trading card games (TCG). “There was no place to play ‘Pokémon,’ besides Burger King,” she explained. “So, we decided to try it.” Bob added that because they come from a family of players, they “still want to keep that environment.” “It gives people a place to socially interact with people who have the same interests…,” Bob said. Amy added the store is doing well and providing a place for players and collectors to come in and play trading card games. “It’s going good,” Amy said. “We had to expand, so that’s good.” Forever 10 is known for its card games and large selection of board games — not video games.
