The Kraken’s Crate: Finding Community Through Play in Newton, Iowa

When Jess and Cody moved to Iowa for work, they expected a short stay. What they found in Newton was community. After the pandemic, a search for connection through tabletop gaming led to new friendships, shared creativity, and a place where people could belong. The Kraken’s Crate grew from casual game nights into a welcoming space built on passion, courage, and the belief that play brings people together. From the energy of opening day to everyday moments around the game table, the shop reflects the strength of community-built spaces. Centered on connection, creativity, and inclusion, The Kraken’s Crate is one example of how Newton’s people turn shared interests into something meaningful and help make the community feel like home.
