On the outskirts of Slurp City, past the sleepy town of Stallsville, lies a bustling metropolis of a different kind. To outsiders this may seem like an ordinary town, with ordinary stores, full of ordinary people, but this town, is far from ordinary. You see, this cosmopolis runs entirely on the exchange and acquisition of something known as Dang Packs. How can an entire town run on trading cards you might ask? Well, this…is Packsburg.
From large corporate conglomerates to honest mom & pop-up shops, you’ll find all variety of various rarities, trinkets, and baubles as you wander down these streets. You’ll meet a wide variety of curious characters as you venture your way through each path and passage. Some may be friendly, some may be…slightly less friendly, but you’ll find no shortage of peculiar persons that make up the fabric of this unique, little town.
So, grab a map and start exploring. There’s dozens of shops, and hundreds of deals to be had. Keep an eye out for some familiar faces walking around town and see if you can spot them all. Some say there’s even some long-lost packs from seasons past floating around. Maybe you’ll be lucky enough to find one?
Welcome to Packsburg!
Packsburg has all the activities you could think of! A round of golf on the Irish Spring Green? Curb your hunger at the Pit Boss Bar and Grill. Keep the evening going by watching the sunset in the Bay of Less, just a short walk past Skip Gate — Nathan_BanSc
Below you’ll find a list of stores, who runs them, what their specialties are and more! Be sure to check out every location as they all offer different things!
