This place is great for those who love a store that has a bit of everything. From card games to board games to table top and more, its got a lot to offer. I was first introduced to this place when looking for models to build. Friend of mine suggested this place and I ended up buying something my first trip. Now this is one of my favorite stops for all my card collecting needs. The employees have always been fairly knowledgeable about anything Ive come in for. Even with everything that has gone on over the last couple years they do what they can for their customers and friends. This place overall is amazing!

Great selection! At college I often have to go to multiple places to find product but truly a impressive inventory. The staff is great, helpful and friendly. If you play legion, Armada, or X-wing this is the place for you. They have much much more as well.

I would advise against going here to purchase cards if youre a TCG player unless youre ready to price check every card you consider buying. Im more than aware LGSs have to add to the price of a card to get a profit, but buying a card for 60$ here and then going home to discover its only worth 25$ is frustrating. After multiple instances of purchasing single cards at Blue Sky then discovering it has been marked up over twice the actual price makes it hard not to feel taken advantage of. I like playing MTG at Blue Sky, but I plan on taking my business elsewhere.

Ive only been here a few times, but Ive never personally been to a hobby store that is as well equipped and clean as this place. Lots of stuff to look at, plenty of events to choose from, some helpful and enthusiastic workers, and it has a bar for us old folk.

Not a bad place, a little misleading. I saw little to no RC items, and the guy at the counter was a bit rude and short. Price gouging was a definite thing happening here at least on certain items. The Helms deep tavern in the basement was fantastic, the lady was friendly and great and made the whole experience worth it

This is one of the largest place Ive ever been with multiple tables for tabletop games. They have magic and the underground dungeon/bar blew my mind. Available private rooms and the different kinds of tabletop terrain you can play with is awesome

This place isnt just a store; its a hub for tabletop game players. The staff here are all excellent.I come in frequently to see whats new and generally nerd out. Not only do they have tabletop games, but a large comic selection, minutes, cards, and art books.They are also now open for actually gaming downstairs in Helms Deep (their game room/pub).I highly recommend a visit!!

The arcade is small, but thats ok. There are three other arcades with blocks of here. The comic selection was large, and the people working there were helpful with an odd question I had.The really cool part of the store is downstairs. They have set ups for battle games, with props and tables ready to go. You can play all sorts of games with some really nice boards and ideas.One of the many geek shops in the area, and a nice open area for people to explore. I enjoyed my visit.

Simply put, this is the most amazing hobby store Ive ever been in. If you partake in any of the hobbies supported by this store, youre going to love it here. The basement game room is the star of the show!

Probably the best board game shop in kitsap. They have rooms for rent by the hour for games plus a huge below floor area with free tables set up as well as a full bar and menu available. They have a board with daily events going on. The sale floor has a huge amount of board games and minis from DnD to 40k and beyond. Also theres other hobbyist type things available and paints and etc. Highly recommend.

Review №13

I wish we had set ups like this at home. We stopped in to browse games. The store on the first floor had lots of boards games to choose from to purchase and downstairs had there was a 21 and up bar and restaurant. Behind that was a room for playing games.

We are big board gamers and this place is the ace. There selection is well above all others and if you want the latest expansion this is the place. They have all kinds of gaming tables and they also have an arcade in the lower level. Any magic card you could think of is gotten here. Just come in and be a tourist for a while and enter a new world. Watch out you may end up getting hooked. The parking is the only down card, it is in the heart of Bremerton.

Huge and spacious with tons of games, clean bathrooms, an espresso bar (my friend got a mocha and said it was nothing to write home about, but good), and a large downstairs area that I believe is for game-playing and where I spied people chatting and eating pizza (I think they also serve beer down there).My friend says they keep a supply of paints on hand and folks can bring their miniatures and paint for free.

Good times with friends at the game shop. theyre going to change their hours and stop opening at 9 on Saturday, which is a bummer for my little band of Xwing players, but it makes sense.They now have food and alcohol! Havent had the chance to try it yet.

Giving three stars only because they didnt have the magazine we were looking for. Other than that, it was alright. Very busy, yet the employees knew what they were talking about.

I think its weird when the booster packs I purchase all look re-sealed and I get all trash cards after 20 packs not one vmax or anything. Bottom of the packs dont line up like they were already opened and over priced. I will never return them or buy anything but singles. Dont come here!

This is a great place for gaming comics and collectibles of all varieties,staff is helpful and very nice a great inventory of 4 dollar and under comics,the only drawback is parking,is hard to find a spot depending on time of day

Review №36

Let me start by saying the place is very beautiful and fits the escape of reality. But the owners personality does Not. I was previously stationed over near the area back in 2016, the owner would talk to me as if I was an outcast amongst the other regulars and sad to say...it was due to my skin tone. I had befriended this man previously on fb until he started to make accusations about me being a Thug because of my profile picture. Very hurtful to reason of me quiting the warhammer 40k hobby. I was well spoken and not raised like the stereotypical people of color. Which brings me back to 2021 I have finally taken the step to get back into warhammer 40k and I felt I should let the owner know I forgive him. And thank you for the hurtful life lesson. God bless

This place is fantastic. One stop shop for most of your nerd needs. Table top gaming, comics, miniatures, model kits, and rc kits. I think I even saw some arcade machines in their lounge. Im just visiting the area, but I am already a bit envious of this shop and wished my local gaming shop was this good.

Dual-level gameshop with boardgames, tabletop material, models, trading cards, comics, a coffee stand, and a bar with food. Most importantly - the staff are all a load of nerds themselves that love the things they sell and share our passion for gaming in all forms.Ive been coming here for years for a number of gaming interests and have seen this place grow from a newly opened single story shop selling cards and boardgames to the nerdy haven with that makes pizza and coffee that it now. This is a business I can honestly say Ive been ecstatic to see grow and flourish over the years.

Huge selection of board games and comic books! There is an arcade room downstairs too. Super fun place, one of my favorite spots in town. They even make drinks you can sip on while you play or browse and I have never had one I didnt like. If you like comics or games be sure to swing by! Im positive youd love it too!

Awesome selection, I walked in and was a little intimidated but instantly felt at home. A great collection of everything you want or need for gaming. It was amazing to find a back section to sit and play games while you wait for your your bus or ferry, out of the cold. Impressive selection and super friendly staff. If you havent been here yet. I recommend stopping in and saying hi.

Review №66

For any game lover this location is a must. From cards, to boardgames, to tabletop rpgs, and more this place has it all. Not just a shop to purchase your gaming gear but a location to play and craft with ease.Each location in the shop is well laid out and organized, making it easy to find anything you are looking for. I personally spent 20 minutes looking through MTG Land Cards with my husband.On top of everything listed above, the owner was charasmatic and knowledgeable. Making our visit one of the best experiences in Bremerton.Due to the current world state I was sadly unable to fully experience their tavern but I hope to return in future to enjoy it!

I love blue sky games, but the addition of their downstairs bar and kitchen (known as helms deep) added the icing to an already beautiful cake. Not only is it a great relaxed place to buy and play board games, but the beer is good and the pizza... holy **** my dudes, the pizza is to die for. Give it a shot, you cant go wrong!

Great game and hobby store. I wish there was a store like this in our town. Sells games, RC hobby supplies and models, fine scale model kits, comics and coffee. They also have a few great arcade games, several playing tables with props, work tables and even some private rooms. Best store of its kind I have visited. We drive an hour each way to visit this store.

Nice shop with something to tickle the nerd in everyone. Fair prices especially the magic cards also a great selection. If your new or interested in any table top or card game you can literally ask anyone there to help. If your looking to play they have events happening all the time along with private rooms and open tables for your own events.

My family and I are newer to the area, and were delighted to find this shop! They have a great selection of tabletop, card and traditional D&D style games as well as thousands of comic, and a great gaming area downstairs. They havent had the specific games I was looking for on my last visits but thats my fault, wanting obscure titles...The staff was friendly and seemed very knowledgeable.

Review №91

We didnt totally get the name. It could definitely be shorter. Might be our only real gripe though.This store has plenty of play space. Its all laid out for shopping. They stock fairly deep and fairly wide on almost every brand they carry. The staff was great. They have plenty of play space.Their tables are nice. If youre a miniatures player they also have good tables and terrain for that. Theyve got mundane things like models, transformers, and comics, but also things like Warhammer, D&D, and Magic the Gathering.Parking can be a bit tough at times in the downtown area, but there is parking usually within a block or a block and a half. Parking garages and such are nearby.Overall, Id highly recommend this store.
