We didn't call it the Lonely Room

I asked once before and this question resulted in a real life store.
We're looking to expand and since MeFi did so well naming us the first time, we're hoping for a clever name for our expansion.
We ended up going with Rune and Board, since it had so many votes and was way better than Wizard's Outpost. We've had a ton of complements for our clever name, to which I usually reply "The Internet named it. It's very helpful," which basically no-one ever says about the Internet.
The space we're considering is directly off our current location, with a focus on space for playing games. We're thinking about using "The Board Room", since it was mentioned more than once in the original post. As it's not the main name of the location wouldn't lead to a confusion with a bar or similar establishment. Some other people suggested "The Side Quest" but y'all did so well last time maybe you can come up with something more on point.

Would you have a door directly into the new space from the old? You could consider a Tardis-type opening and say “it’s bigger on the inside”

King and Pawn
When the game is done, the king and pawn go into the same box.
Italian proverb.

It seems like given your thing already has "and", that these two spaces should be "Rune" and "Board", no?

The Board Rune--amusingly close to the main space. When you add a third space you could get a real "Who's on First" kind of thing going.

"directly off our current location"
Please tell me that to access this location, it's on the second floor, or there's otherwise a higher floor step between areas - so you could call the gaming area "Level Up".
