Co-Owner of Boss Battle Games, Dustin dreamed of opening an arcade since middle school. Inspired by all-you-can-play lockins at Great Times in Beech Grove, Indiana. BBG started as a business plan in a notebook (which, you can find on display in the arcade!). Dustin enjoys fighting games, such as Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, but finds enjoyment in all the games he tries. His recommendation for new arcade visitors is F-Zero AX and any fighting game. Dustin is also the arcade technician - he maintains all the machines on the floor, in addition to service calls.

Co-owner of Boss Battle Games, Phylicia is a self proclaimed "nerd". Her love of video games started with Oregon Trail, evolved to Pokemon in the late 90's, and has ultimately landed with older arcade games, such as Lunar Lander. She enjoys making costumes, cosplaying, and doodling cute things. She designs all art, photos, websites, shirts, and social media associated with Boss Battle Games. Phylicia also does arcade art design and repair, bringing back marquees, side art, and control panels that have been lost to time. Her current favorite machine at the arcade is the X-Men pinball!
