“Vortex carries a bit of everything. Video games, retro games, Lego sets, the occasional board game, action figures...if you want it, he's probably got it squirreled away somewhere. Worth a trip from anywhere!”
“Absolutely amazing experience, the staff helped me a ton! They found the exact Minifigure torso I needed in the back when I asked, absolutely amazing customer service! Would return!”
“Absolutely LOVE this location. Staff is so pleasant. I leave smiling every time I go. It is clean and the product placement looks great. The cash wrap area is never a mess either. It’s really an awesome shopping experience. I greatly appreciate my interaction with the store manager last week. He may not have known but I was really struggling. Thank you.”
“Wide selection of ice cream. I only got cake. Nice vibe. It was cold and rainy when I went but the outside seating must be really nice in the summer. I will go back to try the ice cream next time I'm in town.”
“I really love this place. They have gifts of all kinds. Stuff you wouldn't find anywhere else. Of course books are there too. I recommend you check it out. I found a few Christmas gifts and am going back to pick up some more”
“Such beautiful used books, some different languages, classics, beautiful and well cared for editions. I hear they also have an online database for their books that expand out of what they have in store”

“Got all the stuff I needed. All the self checkouts were closed except one. The employee there would scan and use the self checkout as if it were a regular checkout.”

Everyone seems to have a positive and good attitude and vibe I'm not gonna lie I am very glad that I had that horrible experience with the manager Jonathan at the Hudson gamestop to be introduced to this gamestop even know its out of the way this is my new GS ❤”
“Great for what it is. Good stuff cheap as they say. We bought a bunch of kids books marked down about 80% from the original price. The aisles were cramped to get through if there was anyone else around, but the employees and other customers were very pleasant to be around so the cramped nature wasn't a big negative. The cashier was friendly and helpful too. I'll certainly go back.”
