A hidden gem of Fort Wayne, you can just feel the love the owners put into the place. I have no doubt their next project will be stellar after this place finishes closing. Keep up the support, gamers!

I absolutely love this place. When it comes to getting that game you are looking for or finding people to play your favorite games with, this is the best place I have found yet.

This is a really cool place!!! They sell lots of figurines and dnd materials. They are focused more on table top role playing games than things like magic and other card games.Its a really cool shop though and would definitely recommend!!!

The staff are always excited to see fellow gamers! The selection and prices are amazing! Love this place

Amazing selection of everything you think they might have! The staff was prompt to help me find a new game for my family and was extra attentive to what I was looking for. Overall a great place

Game Annex is the greatest board gaming and role-playing game shop this side of Fort Wayne. It is always clean and friendly in the shop. The Game Annex helped me set up a group for D&D and matched us up quite well. If you are looking for board games, D&D material, or a cozy place to play games, go to the Game Annex!

Very friendly people. Large amount of gaming supplies and games. They hope to have in house gaming soon.

This was a really great store to visit. Im not from the area but stopped in while visiting family. If this were local to me you can bet Id game here all the time.

Looks like they are having fun. Lots of tables, and shelves full of games to try before you buy.

Everyone there is friendly and helpful, plus they do a fantastic job trying to keep everyone safe with regard to the pandemic

Helpful staff, good selection. Unfortunately due to COVID I havent been able to play here. Their prepainted selection of Minis are very nice though

Great board game store! Super clean, great selection of games, plenty of gaming space.

Great selection! Excellent staff! Only problem is that roughly half the stuff I looked at was not priced. But, if that doesnt bother you its one of the best game stores in Northeast Indiana. To be fair, at the time of this review the store had just relocated. So maybe that wont be an issue in the future.

An excellent relocation. Its wide open space allows for freer movement than most gaming stores offer between displays, game shelves, and demo tables. Friendly staff are always near to provide guidance and suggestions, but never a pushy sales pitch if youre simply browsing. Id highly recommend a visit.

Staff knew their stuff. I live in board game geek but had nothing on them. Friendly and helpful and helped me buy the perfect game for what I needed.

The garage sales they host here are a great opportunity to acquire games for a good price.

Locally owned, family friendly, and awesomely welcoming, this board game store has a good selection and a very knowledgeable staff. They also promote their family friendly environment, so you will not find the aggressive, inhospitable, or angry /gate-keeping group here. Likewise you will not find yourself assailed with gamer-funk. If there is anything stereotypical that would drive you away from the game stores of yesterday, rest assured that they have taken care of that here.Well worth the visit for anyone interested in board games.

Great store! Friendly, helpful staff. My wife and I went there for the first time yesterday. We were immediately greeted and introduced to the store by the owner who got up from a game she was playing to help us. She was very knowledgeable about all kinds of games and gave great recommendations. She asked what types of games we liked and picked out other games that we may like. They had an impressive inventory and she said she could get many others for you. We will definitely return to this store. It is great to have a local business that is so knowledgeable and friendly.

Always go out of their way to suggest new games to play or buy as well as explain how to play if needed.

Visited here looking for a game for my 9 y.o. daughter. I was warmly greeted and one of the owners took considerable time to find out about my daughter and what I was looking for. She had some very good suggestions and I never felt pressured. The store is very bright and spacious with a vast selection of very unique and fascinating games. I will definitely be back as my daughter gets older.

Im new to board gaming and found their expertise helpful in finding games that I may like. Buying from them does open opportunities like enjoying their rewards program and utilizing their game library. I would provide more stars, but I did have an unpleasant experience when ordering a game that was not in stock. They did provide a 15% discount for not having in stock with a lead time of 2-3 weeks for delivery. I called after two weeks out of curiosity, was told if should be there by Friday or Monday since all warehouses were showing it in stock. Waited another week without a call. Called in again and was told that it should be arriving Friday. Never received a call. I ended up calling in after three weeks to cancel the order since it didnt seem there was a priority in ordering the game. I would recommend going to them to enjoy the benefits of their expertise and game library, just be cautious when ordering games they do not have in stock.

We stop at game stores whenever we travel, but none have compared to Game Annex. From the variety of games (theyre way more than Magic) to the knowledgeable staff, we were really impressed. We cant think of any time, in any kind of store, an employee has tried so hard to find just the right product for us. She didnt want to make a sale, she wanted to find us a game well love. Well be back!

A great place to browse, but not buy. The store is clean, well-organized, and filled with interesting thing. However, the in-stock selection isnt great (lots of things youd expect to find are absent), and prices are mostly unmarked. If you know what youre after, your best bet is to have them order for you and get a significant discount.

Friendly Staff and helped me find particular card game even though it wasnt at there store.

Fantastic store. Well designed. Incredibly curated selection (go ahead, ask them about any of their product!) Game Library open to the public. Ive been to a lot of game stores throughout the country and this place really stands out!

Between the staff, atmosphere, and quality selection The Game Annex is simply the best tabletop/board gaming establishment in the area. Whether you are stopping in looking for a specific game or just browsing, the staff is extremely helpful in both recommendations, special orders, and quality game conversation. The enormous play area is a great environment to sit down and learn a game, as well as meet with friends for special game nights. There is always something new and exciting happening at The Game Annex. Buy local! Play more games!

Huge tabletop selection, tables for play testing or just playing. Tons of accessories to take your tabletop experience to the next level!

Wonderful store with fantastic employees!

The Game Annex is the very best game store in the Fort Wayne area. In fact, my husband and I are tremendous geeks and travel a bit, so we have visited game stores all over the country, and The Game Annex is the best store we have visited in the country thus far. The Game Annex offers the best selection, a nice, clean store and awesome customer service. Dawn bends over backwards to ensure that her customers receive a warm welcome and helps us to find anything we need. If she doesnt have it, shell find it. We live way out north and drive past several other game stores to go to The Game Annex, and it is totally worth the drive!

The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. This is one of the cleanest, most professional game stores I have been in. This is not your typical folding card tables, empty Monster cans, and stray potato chip on the floor places you often run into. Good selection, decent prices.

Wonderful game store the employees and owner go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. If they dont have what you are looking for they will order it or direct you to someone who does. Also has a video game store located in the store as well truly a one stop shop for all your gaming needs.

Friendly, helpful staff. The owner is super knowledgeable, and in most cases if they dont have what you want, they can get it. They also run workshops and have gaming there all the time. Its a great place to go, be a nerd, and buy cool games at good prices.

What an absolute joy to visit! I went in for a single pot of paint for one of my Miniatures and was blown away by the outstanding niceness and pleasantness as we talked, both about future games and about ordering. The service is great there, as well as a supremely pleasant atmosphere. Clean, Friendly, and Knowledgeable, would be happy to go back and will be letting all my friends know.

Best game store in town, hands down!

My friend brought me here because he plays D&D here on Wednesday nights. I did a one shot campaign and enjoyed it so I signed up for their wait list to get in a campaign group. This place is very clean and the staff and people that come are great.

Years ago, a friend shared the Game Annex with me and I was blown away by the friendly, passionate, well-informed service they provided. Ive since introduced other friends to the shop, and its only gotten better with time. This is one of Fort Waynes local gems. If youre a gaming enthusiast, theyll still be able to teach you a thing or two. And if youre not...theyll be happy to provide guidance, show you the ropes, and provide an awesome environment where you can sit down with old friends and make some new ones.

The most pleasant, enjoyable and fun atmosphere Ive ever experienced at a game store! I began frequenting The Game Annex as a Magic player after my wife purchased a game as a gift and commented on how nice the store was and how pleasant the staff were. While my schedule does not allow as much cardboard slinging as it did in the past I enjoy every opportunity to drop in and pick up gaming supplies.There is ample play space and multiple groups of regular customers that game throughout the week and weekend. The staff is genuinely friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic and they go out of their way to help you and be inclusive to all customers. The store is clean, well-organized, and has grown substantially in recent years.There is a worthwhile loyalty program and they are glad to order items that are not in stock while offering a discount when that is the case.It truly is a welcoming place for gamers run by gamers and it shows in every element of the store from the people to the products and the space in which to enjoy them.MtG Sidenote: The atmosphere is fantastic with very experienced players and judges that are glad to teach the game to new people and offer an *enjoyable* time at high levels of play as well. That is a difficult balance to find! This is the only place that Ive played in which everyone is there to have fun and not be overly competitive.

Great local game store. Friendly staff, good selection of games, and clean well kept atmosphere. Arranged events and tables available for patrons use.

Place is the best for enthusiasts. They will help you find the perfect game.

Excellent board game selection. Great service. Very clean.

Love this store. After my first time visiting Ive been a regular member. Stop for a visit and theyll treat you like family and help find a game for you!

Dawn, the manager and owner, welcomed me and my friends with open arms to their little Eden. I go multiple times a week for various events but open board gaming is where its at! Close to fast food and restaurants and public bathroom is available. Always clean, always kind, and best prices in town for most if not all their inventory. If they dont have it, and can order it, not only do they not charge you shipping but they take another percentage off of the purchase price for the customer!

Friendly staff with a clean, good sized store.

The Game Annex is the best game store Ive ever visited. The staff is friendly and helpful. The selection is beyond incredible!

Always great to see the helpful staff at Game Annex!

I love dnd

The Game Annex is a wonderful retail space. Locally owned, clean, welcoming and innovative in its model; it exemplifies expert customer service, catering to each individual shoppers interests and needs. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind and every experience I have had has been a wonderful one. Well done on creating an environment that encourages folks and families to comfortably stay a while and have fun!

A clean well-lit game store? I didnt think it was possible, but here it is! The wide open play area is roomy and comfortable but can get noisy on busy evenings. As a magic player, I appreciate the welcoming, non-competitive atmosphere at events.

Wonderful game store with a good selection of games for purchase and demo. Employees are friendly and knowledgeable on the products they sell. The people at the location playing games are friendly as well and happy to have new people join their games, which is great for learning new games. And by far the cleanest bathroom in a game store Ive ever seen - not even joking!

Great selection of games that you wont find at large retailers.

What an incredible place. Fantastic people, and an immensely valuable part of the gaming community.I am truly jealous of the residents of Fort Wayne for having the Game Annex here. Will be visiting as often as possible!

Great place, helpful staff. I look forward to seeing their new location on Lima Rd

Being at the Game Annex is like having a game night with friends in the comfort of your own home. The store is well kept, organized and has an extremely friendly and fun atmosphere. They have competitive prices and go the extra mile to get you the products you want as well as the best customer service I have ever experienced.

The staff at Game Annex has been so kind and welcoming, as a weekly visitor to the store I am always greeted right away and know if I have any questions the staff is more than equipped to help me with what Im asking. They make everyone feel welcome at the store and I would highly recommend the location to anyone looking to get into or expand their gaming horizons.

By far the best game store around. Clean, very well run, wide range of vibrant gaming communities. Pre-order discounts, on top of order discounts, on top of a generous loyalty program. Pick an evening and the place is packed. The owners are awesome and dont let anyone get away with stupid crap.

Great staff. Good selection of new board games and minis. Keep an eye out for their board game garage sales

Great for board games. Has good deals and a lot of games you can try out in the store. Super helpful staff!

Alex is so helpful.

This is the best game store I have ever been to! The staff is so friendly and very knowledgeable! The place is clean and well organized. I love going here!

Love this place. Staff cares a lot about their customers. Place is clean and welcoming to everyone. I buy most my Christmas presents here.

One of the better game stores Ive been to in any city; certainly the best of the Fort Wayne options. Has a permanent, not-going-out-of-business feel and doesnt waste space with inventory other than games. Bought three games and prices on two of them matched Amazon. The third was more expensive by $2 - not bad for a brick and mortar store.

A great environment I hadnt been to for a long while and has grown in a phenominal way since I was there last. Definitely coming back when I can to scratch my table-top gaming itch.

The staff is amazing, the games are awesome, the selection is incredible

Very helpful and very nice. Answered all my questions. If they dont have it they will help you find it.

Family owned, casual game store. If you want to play mtg, Warhammer, or try out a new board game with out all the super competitive douche wads then go here. Fair prices and great atmosphere.

Nice space. Guys game selection. Lots of space to play games. Lots of games to check out and play in the store.

A fantastic store. They give you no hassles on returns and give you great customer service. This is the finest game store I have seen. If you like gaming, this is the place to go!

Cute card game and board game store, with a great selection 9f video game stuff too! just ask and theyll take you around to look!

Unfortunately they dont carry the game I was hunting for as a Christmas gift, but I will definitely be back. The selection was great, and the lady working gave me a good list of other games that Im definitely going to have to add to my collection.

Good amount of table space to play games during the day. Lots of more crowded evening and weekend events. Has private rooms for groups to play games; there is a fee for private rooms. Lots of available games to try out free. Not good for small children.

A very family friendly atmosphere. They greet everyone that walks through the door. I like how they are always willing to teach me new games.

Super helpful and well informed about their store and customers

If they dont have the game they probably can get it for you, and a wonderful group of people work there.

Really nice place and very helpful and friendly staff!

Best board game store in town! Competitive pricing. Very welcoming and friendly to all!

A great place to play games. Relaxing atmosphere with plenty of space. The owners will go out of their way to make you feel like part of the family.

Awesome gaming store. Friendly, knowlegable staff; cant say enough good things about this place. Good inventory. Lots of tables for board games and wargaming.

The employees there are some of the most helpful and knowledgeable people that Ive encountered. They have a solid selection of games and are always willing to answer any questions. I live an hour away from the store, but make it a point to shop there in person.

Board game shop in Fort Wayne. They have a decent selection and can order in games. They also have a lot of games for people to try before they buy which is really cool.

Really great place! Went for the first time today, very impressed with inventory. Staff was great and very helpful!

Great place to buy board games staff if very helpful and will order games they are out of stock or dont carry for you! And the garage sales they have are amazing!

Easily the best game store in Fort Wayne. The employees are very knowledgeable about the games they sell.

The game annex is a great place, they have several games and their expansions for sale. As well as a demo area. They also run games too.

They have a Pokemon Gym there that gets 5 stars just for that!

Great selection on games and really friendly staff. My husband and I also love that they have a game library.

Awesome game store. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.

Friendly and knowledge staff. Demos available. Daily events. SUPER clean.Love this place!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Only downfall is quite a few items did not have a price.

Friendly attentive staff. Variety of games. Dnd on wendsdays.

If you like gaming, it is well set up a good place to go

Really awesome people. They really know what they are talking about, and go out of their way to be helpful.

Great knowledgable staff. Awesome play space with lots of tables and war games terrain. Owners and staff are passionate about games and very involved in the community. Store events are very regularly scheduled, varied and open to all, veteran to noob.

Awesome place with all kinds of board games and friendly people, great place to buy and play games.

Staff is so kind and helpful. Best selection and everyone there is very knowable.

Super cool feature of this game store is that they have a lot of games you can test out and play right there in the store or borrow to take home. I needed advice on playabiity of games with just 2 players and they helped me buy exactly what I needed (many games that say they work for 2 players dont really work all that well with just 2).

The place and staff is and are fantastic. They are hosting board gaming nights on Fridays, which is my personal desire to attend.

Great atmosphere, very clean, organized, and the people are the best. I have never felt so welcome. Cant wait to bring the kids in

Wonderful place. Wonderful people.

Great place to explore, learn, and play great games. Not to mention the amazing staff!

Love stopping in here whenever Im in the area, friendly staff and nice size play area for all gaming needs.
