Super friendly staff and overall a great atmosphere. I often visit to draft Magic on Fridays and the turnout lately has been solid, with a good mix of veteran and newer players, with good prize support as well. They have a good selection of board games and various TCG accessories too, but the primary draw is definitely the regular events they host. If youre looking for a place to play MTG, you cant go wrong here

Great staff and a good environment to play games. My only complaint, which I feel is major, is their singles are priced off of TCG Listed Median. Illogical and outdated way of pricing.

The move and remodel look great, still working on shelves. Staff still having to double check in back occasionally, but very quick. Had just what I was looking for.

Awesome store and environment. Its a great place to play MtG and the player base is well diversified from long term veterans to novice players.The store is more than just TCG stuff though. They have an awesome selection of game night type games, and the staff and store regulars are great at making recommendations or answering questions on most any game. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for something fun to do 😄.

Awesome store with great prices and a wide selection to choose from. Even if they dont have it the staff will get it in for you if it is within their ability. To top it off the staff here is also very friendly and super knowledgeable about the products they sell.

Great local game shop. If you want something they dont have, they will put it on a list, order it when they can/when they place their next order, and call you when it is in. Looks like they have event going on in the store as well.

Super open store area, great selection of bulk and extremely good prices on miscellaneous accessories. Would love to see a twitter page for updates on things though. Overall though very clean and a pleasant place to shop.

The people that run and work at this store in Market Square are hyper-friendly people who will always invite you to join them for the game events they host. You really cant go wrong by buying your mtg, dnd, or warhammer40k stuff here. Great place to go!

They had the game I was looking for, but not my preferred version. But they did offer to order it in for me, and also helped us choose another game. Glad to have a local game store here in Lafayette.

Friendly staff. Helpful and quick to respond. Ive bought cards there a few times now and they have anyways been great to work with.Update to my review:They dont give you a receipt showing each card you purchase. You have to assume you got what you paid for. 3 times Ive gone home to realize multiple cards are missing and that the total I paid was not for the cards I was told.

I stopped in while I was visiting family in the area. Great game shop with a large selection of modeling supplies. Staff was nice and helpful. I was able to get some card sleeves and dice that are out of print. The staff was going to pass along a card to the owner from my work place at White Metal Games in North Carolina.

On one visit, an employee spoke with me about board games for over 1/2 an hour while I picked out Christmas presents. Made good recommendations and was able to give good descriptions of each game.Another time, I came in with my young son to sell a Pokémon card that he had. The employee was very patient with my son even though they were busy.

Review №32

Its a great stop for tabletop gaming and various TCGs. Everything is organized so you can have a quick trip, but theres also enough where you can browse for quite a while. Staff are friendly, quick, and helpful.

Review №33

Could be better about the customer service, wish their card inventory was much more than just magic, but it was alright more for board games from what I have seen.

The best local game store in Tippecanoe County!

Review №35

Was back in here to buy card sleeves. Sadly do not remember the employees name who helped me, but if they are all like him the place has great staff. He went out of his way to help me find some that would work in terms of quantity and quality.Likely will be return in the future as I have been bitten by the commander bug. At that point I can review singleton card prices and availability for MtG

Great, friendly customer service. The proprietor was very friendly and helpful! Very welcoming to a couple Canadians travelling on business, and showed a place to play games at the store, which was well above anything he had to do. I really appreciated the stores selection in cards for Magic, as well as other collectable card games. I will be back anytime I am in town.

This card shop is just up the road from my house and I love spending time there. The Pokemon scene is better than at other local shops and while they have a lot more selection of Magic cards the Pokemon selection is solid.

Review №42

I enjoyed coming here the first few times that I did. But, recently, Ive been trying to avoid it because of the staff. I accidentally made a mistake on the cards I had picked out. (I had expected them to be around $1-$2 a piece at MOST.) Once the total came out way higher than I had ever anticipated, I had to retract my thoughts on buying the cards. After that, I was treated with hostility nearly. I understand where they were coming from about doing the work for nothing. But, having retail experience myself, I understand that people arent always accurate on what they plan to spend. And that things could change. I always just feel generally uncomfortable in this store now. This incident was the tipping point for me though. I will only come here if I absolutely have to and I cannot find what Im looking for anywhere else.

Been playing D&D and buying all my tabletop products (and tons of sodas) here for five years now, and I have only praise for the place. Well stocked and well managed, with a welcoming atmosphere, lovely gaming space, and absolutely wonderful, friendly staff. I and my group intend to stick around as long as we can.

A great game store with a solid selection of board and rpg games. A fantastic selection of Miniature and Card Games and every paint and accessory you can think of. Big open play areas for minis and cards including 2 dedicated RPG rooms.

Review №64

Great for everything except for pokemon cards. There are a few in the case but if you want anything that isnt a full art GX then you have to sort through a big box, before going to the register where the dude checks on troll and toad and charges you the online price for each individual card even if you have a big stack of non-holos. Never seen that before from a card shop.

Been there 3 time, no greeting and single word responses. Additionally, they didnt seem interested in talking games, which is a shame because Im an avid table-top gamer and former MTG tournament judge. Go to Castle or Sages shop, skip Tier 1. I am, despite the shop being 2 minutes from my house.
