In having both a rich history in its walls and monstrous trophies hung proudly on the mantle, the Storm Crow Manor makes for the most unique eatery experience in Toronto. Welcome to the Storm Crow Manor. Dive into Toronto, Canada’s very own portal to a pocket realm of nerdvana: The Storm Crow Manor.
In our 6-minute documentary, A Tale of the Storm Crow Manor, explore the Storm Crow Manor as a necessary space for self-identifying freaks and geeks alike. Enjoy the company of Jason Kapalka: Canadian game developer, Co-founder and once upon a time, chief game designer of PopCap Games (most commonly recognized for Bejeweled and Plants Vs. Zombies). Since having sold PopCap Games, Jason Kapalka has played his hand in the creation of Mysterious Package Company, and Blue Wizard Digital, an outlet (and I quote) “for ten years of pent-up violence and lust, with the goal of creating the sexiest violentest games evar.”
Fun Fact:
The Storm Crow Manor is one of two Canadian heritage buildings: The William St. Croix Houses in the Church Street Neighborhood. The architecture of these buildings share characteristics of late 19th century Second Empire, a style of architecture originally developed from mid 1800s France (under the shadow of the not-as-short-as-everyone-thinks Napoleon III), the style was transported to North America; the appeal of this unique architecture combined features from classical French and Italian Renaissance architecture.
