The staff was really friendly, funny and considerate. They helped us find exactly what we were looking for, and even though the issue of the comic I wanted had just arrived, they dropped what they were doing and entered it into the system so we could checkout. They made it a really welcoming atmosphere, and we enjoyed ourselves greatly.They have a good selection of comics, ranging from graphic novels to back issues from old prints. Their manga section is on the smaller side, but there are some hidden gems in there, and its very reasonably priced.They also have a nice, clean space set aside for games and events.Game Over has a wheelchair ramp for disability access, and even though they had to move some stuff (the owner explained theyre still settling in), the inside was easy to maneuver around in, and will be even more so once theyve had time to put everything in its place.If youre reading this, its definitely worth a visit, and Burlington in general stands to benefit from having more businesses this personable and willing to accommodate accessibility.
Great Experience. My daughter was wanting to get into comics and the owner was very friendly and answered all her questions. We he realized the shelf was out of the comic she wanted he went straight to the back and brought up several issues for her to choose from. Loved how he treated her, too many brush off children. My family will be returning for sure.Also Ghost is a great mascot!
Sensei Stokes runs the best comic shop in Burlington!! Whether you stop in to just chat, or come in to read some comics, hes got you covered. Oh, and he has judo classes for youth all the way to adults. Stop in and say hi!!
Great source for comics and other things. The owner definitely has a lot of knowledge when it comes to comics
Nice place to go to. Owner is great and his dog is just as friendly.
Great place. The owner is really helpful and friendly. He even helped me find some comics that Ive had difficulty finding. Great selection to browse through. I will definitely be going back; if only to see Ghost, the very friendly dog who sits behind the counter.
Great store, great staff, and you might get to meet Ghost, official store dog.
This is the best comic shop! Thanks for supporting me and showing off my work! You can’t find many people to do that. Thanks so much! Definitely recommend this shop to everyone. It has the perfect balance of graphic novels and comic books. Sensei Darian Stokes rocks! Super friendly and super helpful
Absolutely 5 stars. Ive had no problem finding great comics when I go. He really supports artists and is super nice and helpful!
Cool people. Great selection. Could be easier to find..
Game Over Comics is a solid 5 stars. The latest comics every week and if theres something youre having trouble finding, Sensei can get it to you!
Good comics & good people the owner is amazing and they have nothing but good comics find them on social media and have fun with them every Friday & Sunday
Scrumptious-Dj Weegee
My teen boys love it.
Really cool place. Staff was very helpful. Large selection of vintage Pokémon cards. Next time we are near the area we will be back for sure!
Couldnt tell when the place opens or even if it opens. Website had one time Facebook had another time the door had the Facebook time but there was a post from May saying they were closed due to covered so I guess I dont get to shop here today or ever.
The owner is a great guy that really cares about the kids in his community.He is also knowledgeable about comics both old and new.The staff is nice and very friendly.I do wish the vintage collection was a little biggerBut this store is truly a pleasure to visit.I called the owner one day and he answered the phone and remembered my name.You just dont see many places with an atmosphere like this.
No AC, as usual for comic book stores a bit of a mess. Guy in charge knew where the comic I was looking for was.
Best comic store around highly recommend going
Unlike many comic book or gaming stores I have visited, I have found Game Over to be well organized, clean, and inviting. The staff is quite friendly and helpful in discovering new or old comic or gaming interests. The atmosphere is safe and pleasant. If you have any hesitation or reluctance in visiting, please drop by and give the staff the opportunity to impress you. Im confident they will.
Not open at 10am on Wednesday like hours stated on google.
Staff very friendly, and the effort to decorate the whole shop is great. Good amount of indy stuff as well as the popular DC and Marvel. Even a shelf dedicated to older, obscure comics. The 50% off boxes are alphabetized, not something youd normally see. For such a small space they do an excellent job of keeping a diverse assortment of titles in their inventory.
A fun place to meet your friends and play a game or two of your favorite trading card game but they also sell vintage consoles, comics and more! Small business but a community one.
Good place slot of cool stuff the people there were really cool and seems to be very knowledgeable and helpful
This is a really great shop! !!! I love the owner Sensei Stokes. - Carson(Flash)
The owner is really nice and is very helpful. He sometimes isnt in the store because he substitutes at my school he truly is a great man!!!
I love this place my mom goes there to get my little brother to get comics.
Fabulous owner who really cares about his clients and is very knowledgeable. Great selection of comics with new comics coming in often!
Great owner/operator! Great variety of items! Very fair pricing and he goes the extra mile for kids of all ages.
This shop is so good and the comics in it. The owner is relly nice and i will defently come again-Joey and Drew the molerat
A decent supply of comics. He has many kinds of card games, including Pirates, which is one of my faves, which surprises me since most dont carry that. Vintage/Classic video games. Small, but nice set up.
As far as comic shops go in the Alamance county area, this is probably the best one. Sensei has a heart for people and especially young people, he wants to be a role model to them. And what better way to reinforce those values than by running a comic book store/Magic The Gathering Store. That illustrates some of those same principles as well.... maybe not Magic as much. But I think anyone who reads this review will get my point.You want weekly new releases from the big two companies like DC and Marvel? Hes got em, you want a place you can enjoy a soda & comic book at? Well I already told ya hes got comic books, but I didnt tell ya until now hes got soda too guys!Seriously one of the best places in this area for young people to hang out at. Ive met some of my best friends thanks to this shop and like I dont know where I would be in my life without it existing in my own town.
Game Over has been almost like a second home to me for a few years, the owner is very down to earth and Ive learned some stuff from even watching him operate the store while my father or brother was to play in a MTG tournament, although Ive been in some too and they are also very fun and they do what they are supposed too on MTG Tournaments. Burlingtons BEST Tournament Host and Comic Shop.
They were very kind and helpful. They have a kids event on Sundays and kids club members get a free comic for their birthday. Pretty cool. We will be returning.
It was being remodeled, but he was very accomidating. Good selection at a wide range of prices. Mostly newer comics though.
Owner is an amazing guy, the atmosphere is inviting and calming, and everyone is there to have a good time, and if you try judo out, youll find a fierce competitive spirit in all the students, but they are always there to help you learn and improve
Cool place to hang out and get some comics, kind of hot though.
Nice people. Prices little high. But hotter in store than outside
The owner is great he is kind and helpful. The people are almost all the same way.
The owner is my teacher! he is really nice too!
This is absolutely my favorite place to shop for my comics, awesome store, that is ALWAYS having some type of event! Cosplay, Anime, Music, Lock-ins, the list goes on. The owner has become a close friend of mine and any I cant think of every shopping somewhere else. I would hate to even think about losing this treasure in Burlington. So please, please go and just visit sometime, you wont be disappointed. He has a wide selection of items, from comics to toys to video games, to dvds/Vhs tapes, you name it, he probably has it. Lets continue, he always has a smile on his face and has something nice to say. He is truly a treasure that Burlington cannot afford to lose!
Best comic store out there no cap omg the dude who owns it omg hes the nicest most caring person Ive ever met in meh life I really suggest swinging by
I absolutely love this place and the owner is so kind
Great atmosphere, great owner. Best comic/collectible shop in the area!
A very underated establishment, often looked over due to its location, the owner is a great guy. The staff is very polite and knowledgeable. Card and video game tournaments are a regular, and Game over is known for its incredibly frightening, and extremely creative, haunted house: The Dark Abyss. On Sundays they have a kids comic shop club, and card tournaments consisting of Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, and Yu-Gi-Oh. They often hold video game tournaments, which are really awesome and, the competition is often very fun. Game over is a awesome comic shop, and I have been very impressed by it. It seems like every time I am there, I end up in intriguing conversations, mostly conversations about Batman, which is Senseis (the owners) favorite super hero by far. Sadly due to a change of location, they have been getting far less customers, and I encourage you to at least try going there. The owner is experienced and very knowledgeable about Comics books, Cards, collectibles, and some video games, he also teaches Judo next door.
Drew i know what school you go to and your friends whos house you go to i know everything
Great place for an all ages show!
I have been going here for about a year now and always find ways to go back. The staff and the regulars are really nice which makes this store one of my favorite places to go.
This little shop is pretty cool! The owner and the staff were really friendly, and helped me find exactly what I was looking for!
They have signs that say they are open at 10 am but they still were not open at 10:30 when I paid a visit.
Nice Selection. Found the comics I was looking for ...and then some.The gamers are there too, so if you arent into that kinda thing, bring your headphones.
Good supply of comics but they dont have many old ones. But great staff.
Sometimes, im afraid of manatees. theyre dirty. lil find
Engaged, knowledgeable, helpful
Super friendly, glad I stopped in today!
Best place to get magic cards and manga!!! And my sensai works there too! Him and everyone else there are super nice and know everything about the stuff they sell! Im so sad I cant rate this place any higher because it really deserves it!
Shop is small but the owner is great. Went out of his way to help me find some back issues I had been looking for.
Magic tournament on Friday night and son had a blast.
Great shop! They host events and are very community friendly. Tiny space, so its crowded at times, but worth it!
The owner is such a sweetheart and very personable. :)
ITS so much fun a lot of good people JUST A GOOOD TIME
Darian Stokes - called Sensei by his patrons, friends, and students - is truly a man who has poured his heart and passion into this store, as well as the Burlington community. Game Over is a safe space for people of all walks of life, and has a relaxed atmosphere for young readers, artists, and gamers alike.Game Over is equipped with a plethora of comic books, as well as stunning art, arcade games, snacks, and superhero gear. Additionally, Sensei and Game Over host friendly competitions of popular games such Magic: the Gathering, Pokémon, and Super Smash Bros.I cant say enough about how much I appreciate what Sensei has done for me and the City of Burlington by sharing this incredible universe of adventure and camaraderie, and Im always excited to visit Game Over!
Great Shop, Nice People, A overall very enjoyable place to be. There is always something to do!
VERY helpful and friendly! I will get all my comics here!
Attempted to go during scheduled business hours. Someone was inside, but they were closed. Wasted my time.
Such a nice place! My son loves stopping in!
Made a point to come out here today. Sign in the window says be back at 315. Lost my business and do you really think you do enough business to close for 4 hours?
Its really cool and fun
Good experience. Good prices and selection is great.
Awsome store never a dull moment
Its a fun place nice people and chilled
Great community for comics and card games alike!
Knowledgeable staff and decent selection

Owner is very cool!
