Philip Glotfelty turned his youthful hobby into his adult livelihood. Nine years ago, he opened Game Masters, a store on Babcock Boulevard in the North Hills that not only sells gear for games like Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering, but also provides a gamers' rendezvous in the store. Glotfelty also hosts a young gamer-in-training: his 10-month-old daughter, Alexandria. "She's a fixture here," he says.
