Level Up Your Reading Game: NLB Opens Comics and Games Pop-Up Library at Punggol Coast Mall

Comic fans, gamers, and curious readers—get ready to geek out! The National Library Board (NLB), in collaboration with JTC and local board game studio Origame, has launched a brand-new Comics and Games Pop-Up Library at Punggol Coast Mall, right in the heart of the Punggol Digital District.

Open now, this vibrant self-service library features over 7,000 comics, graphic novels, game-themed reads, and board games, inviting readers of all ages to dive into a universe of stories and strategy. Designed with fun in mind, the colourful space includes cosy seating, separate sections for adults and children, and a dedicated area for interactive board game play.

Whether you’re into superheroes, manga, or role-playing fantasy worlds, there’s something for everyone. Highlights from the collection include:

  • All-New X-Men: All-Different
  • Mr Kiasu in Singapore History
  • Dungeons & Dragons: Nights of Endless Adventure
  • Final Fantasy VII Remake: Material Ultimania

Young readers (ages 10–12) can enjoy favourites like:

  • Dog Man
  • Geronimo Stilton: Get Into Gear, Stilton!
  • Bluey: Swim School

Love a game night? Check out a curated range of local and regional board games in partnership with Origame, such as:

  • Kopi King
  • Chope!
  • Buffet Boss
  • Wok and Roll
  • Durian Dash
  • Rainforest City
  • Shop Until You Drop Lah!
  • Oh My Orchids!

For a nostalgic twist, don’t miss the local comics showcase wall, featuring rare titles like Captain V—Singapore’s first full-colour comic—and Medium Rare, the first local film-to-comic adaptation. While these gems are for viewing only, they offer a unique glimpse into Singapore’s comic history.

The pop-up also features StoryGen, an interactive AI-powered experience by NLB and Amazon Web Services. Visitors can remix classics like The Wizard of Oz or Sang Nila Utama into Manga-style adventures, while learning about digital literacy and the ins and outs of Generative AI through NLB’s Read to be S.U.R.E. initiative.
