“Decent prices and reasonable staff.

Not quite as welcoming as some other game stores in the area, but they’ve always been reasonable and polite to me so I have nothing to complain about.

I haven’t played much there, but it’s clear their play space is great for miniatures, but seems only fine for anything else - not bad, but nothing special on that front.

For better or worse, they usually follow TCG player prices closely. This means if you didn’t pre-order and it’s a popular set, they’ll up the price to market value - however high that is - sometimes well above any nearby stores. But on the flip side, if they have product that’s less popular they’ll generally discount it below other local stores to match TCG player prices. If you know what you’re willing to pay for something this works out fine, and I can’t blame them for trying to make money in the fine margins a game store operates, but it’s worth knowing what you’re getting going in.

They do offer more than some of the closest other stores for trade it, but have a bit less selection to spend that trade in credit on. Again, a trade off, but one I’ve been very happy with on many occasions.

I can’t say this is my favorite game store, or the best experience ever, but I also can’t get behind the 1 star reviews they have. If they have what you want (and they have a reasonable mix of collectible games and more casual/ strategy card and board games) you’ll be able to find it for a fair price - and I think that deserves 4 stars. If you like miniatures, their extensive terrain in their gaming area probably push them up to 5 stars and best in the area, but if you’re into cards there are other local stores that run better events or have larger variety of available singles and that might push them down to 3 or 3.5 stars.

Overall, I think they’re a just fine store, and while I do most of my playing and shopping at other game stores in the area I still sometimes come here to buy or trade in and I’ve always been content with what they have to offer.”

“Jimmy was very helpful, polite, and efficient. He was very busy multi-tasking but kept calm and professional while assisting several customers. He was the only cashier up front and was being stretched very thin. Give this guy a raise!”

“New owner has put put a lot of work into cleaning the store and the store reputation. Old owner wasn't a bad guy, just got old and complacent. Kerry is honest and professional. Remember, it is a business and they've got to make a living.”
