Extremely helpful staff, uniquely good selection of products. When I asked for some guidance regarding a school club I’m running, not only was I supported without being oversold, Mike ended up donating a significant amount of product to the club, helping the next generation of nerds find their love for gaming!

Good selection although the prices are pretty high. Also has used games for sale which is rather nice and pretty rare for a board game store. Staff seems helpful too.

Great place to not only get games but also minifigs. They also have a fair amount of Funko Pops spanning several genres with a few rare variants.They have A LOT of puzzles and puzzle games, so this is your place if youre looking to expand your collection.There are no real aisles, but everything is spaced out well with signs/graphics denoting whats located in that area.The folks who work here are also fun, funny and willing to share their own adventures. Make sure you ask about the Cthulhu figure!

This place is awesome. There have been a lot of sunny days recently, yet were all still stuck inside most of the time. Kill your hours with a game, slay your boredom with a puzzle, or get some friends together and start playing D&D. Its all here, and with friendly customer service!

Don’t let the exterior fool you. The store is clean, comfortable and chock full of more board games than I realized existed. No dusty forgotten things on shelves here and the employees are knowledgeable, energetic and interested to help you find something to meet your interests and needs.

Review №33

This place is almost perfect. They seem to have almost every game imaginable. Whether youre into D&D, Pokémon, Magic, Star Wars or some obscure game, youre in for a treat at this gem of a store. The employees offer help, at a safe distance and NEVER make you feel uncomfortable or embarrassed. Especially if youre new to most games as I am, specifically D&D. Most employees offer friendly tips and even share their experiences with various dice, equipment and products. Theres even room behind the curtain to play in tournaments or try out your new dice. While no place is perfect, I find no flaws here other than I wish they had room to expand or open more shops.

They dont have any tournaments or events. Their Magic The Gathering products are sold at a very high mark up.

Used to be a friendly place with very helpful associates, now it is missing its soul. A bunch of new people who stand around and help younger people. I did not get any help nor did other older( >30) get offerred help. I even tried to get one associates help but he stared into space and walked away.A lot of new stuff, unless you are looking for Warhammer, Yugioh, Magic...

Rainy Day is an enduring beacon of games and hobby pursuits. Knowledgable and interested in their products, Ive never failed to have an engaging conversation when I go in for gaming supplies. Replete with a huge selection of boxed board games, card games, puzzles, wargaming and roleplaying minis, and more, you cant go wrong shopping here.

Everything about Rainy day screams classic game shop. The staff is aways super helpful and friendly. The staff is very passionate about the items they sell. I have and continue to highly recommend this shop to people who are interested in non-digital gaming.

Review №62

This Local Game Shop treated me well for 1 item pre order but for every other preorder I’ve made the prices have been unreasonable. The downside is I request to be put on a list or “preorder” but they will not tell me price until the day of sale. Come release day I get a call with a price higher than expected and of course I Reject it. I want to support local game stores of course but it doesn’t feel good paying more than what resellers charge.

Never have I met a more friendly and knowledgeable staff. I’ve always felt that they held the gates wide open for new players interested in Magic, 40k, and other games. I personally fell in love with two new RPGs and painting minis because of this store!

Review №75

Great selection and friendly staff. A huge selection of board games for all age ranges. This time I purchased five board games for my 5 year old. The staff was very helpful in making recommendations. Over the past couple decades they have been my goto shop for miniatures, paints, Magic the Gathering and Warhammer40k. They have a selection of used games and role playing books as well. They also have puzzles and novelty items. Pre-Covid they had a large play area where you could test play games from a large shelf or simply meet and play with other gamers. This play area appears to have been turned into more display space during the pandemic. I recommend visiting here before ordering on Amazon, much bigger selection and you will be helping to keep this local treasure alive.

Great selection of board games, friendly and helpful staff, nicely organized and kept store. There are multiple tables in the back of the store to play on, there are larger games that are held in that space (ask staff for details) of many different varieties that anyone can come by and watch or play!Food and drink is allowed (be sure to clean up after yourself!) and there is a bathroom in the back which was clean and served its purpose. Great place to meet with friends to play something, browse the game selection or get involved with the events held there!

Review №80

18 + years have I been going to this store its moved several times but that never stopped me from seeking it out for all my board gaming and table top equipment and many friends I know go to the nightly events and open game tables. I cant emphasize enough this is the store for boardgaming for the etitre city of Portland and its many suburbs.

Review №81

The best place I know to go and play games with fellow fame enthusiasts. A wide variety of board games, magic, and D&D style RPGs. A very knowledgeable staff who like helping. Note that you will likely pay more for the board games in particular, but I think its worth it because of the variety they offer and the team to help you decide. Plus you can try certain games while you are there. Worth a shopping day if you need more cards or a new game for the fam.

Review №94

This store is one of my favorite places in the Portland Metro area. The owner does a fantastic job of curating an inventory that is always interesting and dynamic while keeping a constant supply of evergreen titles that many people new to the hobby might be looking for.The staff is always friendly and attentive and ready to answer questions and provide their expertise and and opinions when asked. There are a lot of game stores in the area and I have rarely had a bad experience with any of them but Rainy Day Games is consistently the best experience when I want to buy, or just look for a game.If you are at all interested in the hobby I would seriously recommend that check out this west side game store, it is just fantastic.

Ja
Review №95

In a small Oregon town this would be a great game store. In the greater Portland area it is an okay game store. Prices are pretty much max retail for most games and you probably will not find any real deals here. They stock a decent amount of board games, but like most game store nowadays, they try to be all things to all people including card players, miniatures gamers, board gamers, puzzle buyers, etc. Their one claim to uniqueness is that they have a ton of disk golf stuff if you are into that. If you have limited time/travel ability, and live in the area, this place is for you. But otherwise drive into Portland a larger game store with better selection.
