The shelves have been getting a serious workout lately!
We’ve added a bunch of new games, restocked plenty of favourites, and had a huge restock of card sleeves and accessories over the last few weeks.
There’s plenty to explore, whether you’re after something quick and easy, a new family game, or something a little meatier for the game table.
And don’t forget our August competition! For every $20 you spend on retail, you’ll receive one entry into the draw to win a Spring Vineyard Escape at French Peak Vineyard and Accommodation, including:
- A one-night stay in the loft apartment
- Wine tasting for up to four people
- Who Stole the Grapes? vineyard mystery experience for up to four
Every $20 = another entry, so stocking up on games and sleeves might just lead to a rather excellent weekend away!
Shop online @ www.meepleopolis.com/shop
or
shop our curated retail range in-store at The Crafted Coffee Company (121 Blenheim Road)
Competition closes 31 August 2026. T&Cs apply. ... See MoreSee Less

Ever wondered what the first shopping list between Māori and Pākehā looked like?
Timber. Flax. Potatoes. Iron tools. Muskets. Blankets. New crops. New opportunities. Trade transformed Aotearoa at an incredible pace, bringing prosperity for some, new challenges for others, and changing the way communities lived and interacted.
In Aotearoa: Contact and Tiriti, you'll negotiate deals, build relationships, manage scarce resources and decide what your community values most. Every trade has consequences, and every player helps shape the story.
No lectures. No exams. Just an engaging, hands-on experience that brings one of Aotearoa's most fascinating periods to life.
📅 Saturday 22 August
📍 Climate Action Campus, Christchurch
🎟️ Free | Ages 14+
