Amazing gaming store! Be sure to support them to make it to the NC entertainment openings for COVID. Big sale this weekend to help them not to close.
Great friendly local gaming store. They have a huge selection of fantasy miniatures, board games, cards, supplement books, accessories, and collectibles. They do have private spaces to reserve for table top and roleplaying groups, but these are currently closed due to public health concerns, which is very unfortunate but I support 100%.If youre interested in roleplaying games, tabletop games, board games, comics, or card games, drop by and see everything they have. Its definitely worth your time and feels good to support your local gaming store!
These guys over at event horizon games were extremely friendlyas well as very helpful. I have no idea how to play Pokemon or any of those other card game but they were very patient in explaining certain aspects to me. They both buy and sell a great many board games as well as card games. Unbelievably friendly staff!
Their inventory is bit limited with covid19 and lack of customers. Still a nice facility with 5star staff.
Looking for a public facility for your D&D campaign to meet? Event Horizon. Want to meet a few new friends and play some of your favorite trading card games and board games? Event Horizon. Want to participate in Friday Night Magic? You guessed it. Event Horizon is one of my go-to gaming stores and might be my number one. Their separate spaces for D&D have TV tables! Its awesome!!
Raleigh has a thriving community of tabletop role players, board game players, and players of collectible card games. We also have a lot of wonderful game stores where you can meet friends and new people to play games with.In this thriving market, Event Horizon stands out in several ways. It has a spacious interior with lots of places to play, including private rooms that can be booked for your game. Several of their tables have built in displays so you can being advanced tools. They also have a side room for the card game tournaments, which really helps with the noise.Even Horizon is also a resale shop, which means you can pick up a lot of classic games and even adventure modules. This can be a little pricey, but their offerings are typically in good condition, plus you can browse a bit before deciding on what to by. Im particularly impressed by their collection of Parhfinder adventure series, which can be a great way to put together a whole campaign. And if you do pick up an adventure, you can reserve a table to play it at while you are checking out!
Fun and games for the family? Yes please!! Board games, card games, snacks and books. Best part is there is more than enough room to feel comfortable and there are free games to try out before you buy them.
An absolutely amazing gaming store for cards, board games, and D&D alike. I have recently just got back into Magic the Gathering and the customer service here was tremendous. The employees are down to earth and love to keep conversation. The enviroment within the store itself is also very homey.
Friendly staff and a great selection of products. My friend and I found a decent selection of MTG cards we were looking for. Would recommend this store to anyone in the area interested in MTG.
Overall great shop. Lots of variety from magic to Armada. While the selection of bulk or cheaper cards is good its not catalogued. Asides from that the staff is friendly and the players are all enjoyable to be around with great prices.
Stopped in on our way by today to check out their Pokemon cards. Turned out that they were having a Pokemon tournament today as well as a board game event tonight. Ive been to a lot of boardgame/card shops lately but this one just became a fast favorite. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff! Broad selection of board games and comics. I will definitely be returning. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great local game store with lots to offer! There are tournaments for Pokemon and Magic: The Gathering, as well as regular tabletop games going on all the time. Fun atmosphere with lots of books and games on shelves all the way to the ceiling.
I love the selection they have here from Board games to Warhammer. Also the gaming sections are nice and while I dont use them personally a lot of people do and it seems effective.
Very friendly staff with a great selection of trading cards, table top, and other gaming supplies. I regularly attend the Pokemon video game events here, and they are run very smoothly. Would highly reccomend to anyone!
Fantastic atmosphere, even better people. Always have great conversations here. Definitely consider it my friendly local game shop.
Has the perfect blend of Im at home relaxing with friends feeling and but this can be rowdy and exciting too if thats what I want today feeling. The best part is either how its open and not stuffy but not too big and impersonal OR the super nice staff. Ive been to every game store in the triangle and this one is my favorite for magic or old obscure rpg books :)
Decent selection for a small space. They host events, sell quite a variety of games for everyone. Miniatures & painting sets, dice, and you can even rent some games.
Event Horizon Games is a great gaming store. They have a great selection in stock, and can order things if they do not have it in stock. Also a great place to meet other gamers, and have some fun.
Great selection of games. Lots of tables and multiple time slots for all kinds of games. Tournaments and clubs meet here, too, so check for best time slot to come play your favorite game. A bit pricey for some stuff.
Great selection. Nice Staff. Great place to play 40K. Lots of good food options nearby for getting a bite in between games. Gives discount for military; greatly appreciated
Best little gaming store out there. They have a little bit of everything.
Top notch gaming store, and one of the best in the area, if not the region. Plenty of games in stock and plenty of gaming space. The customer service is awesome! Knowledgeable staff (theyre gamers too). Ive had great times here.
Quiet and professional, and such an impressive collection of items from all walks of in-person gaming. Perhaps the best Ive seen in my limited experience.
Great shop. Lots of games. Bright and open. Plenty of playing space.
I give this location five stars for the following reasons.1- Plenty of space.2- Multiple restrooms.3- Friendly service.4- Nice stock selection.5- Great prices for all needs.All in all, Fantastic.
I have only visited this store once, but I enjoyed it. There is a section with a number of tables for gaming, as well as snacks for long-term gaming adventures. They have various board games for sale, as well as miniatures (painted and unpainted) and dice. The staff was very friendly. They also have a used book section; they even had some D&D 4e book, which was thrilling for me as thats what I currently play.
ABSOLUTELY DO NOT BUY POKÉMON CARD PACKS FROM THIS STORE!!!!!!!!!! I have had multiple experiences of purchasing packs that were obviously FELT for from the booster box for rarity.This store SCAMS it’s customers because they only sell you non rare packs!!!!!! The employees feel for the cards and have even TAUGHT ME HOW TO DO IT.Absolutely never purchase them from this store OR MAGIC PACKS because I’m sure they can do the same thing and only sell you non foil packs.This is an absolute disgrace and you should be ashamed of your employees and your store.
The store layout has changed a little since they first open. They have a great inventory of board games and comic books. They now have a small manga section as well. Staff is always friendly.
A great selection of board games. When they dont have what you want, theyll order it for you too. They also have comic books and trading cards as well as collectible mini figures. Perfect for the usual nerd.
Had a great time. Good selection of new and old. Friendly staff, and good atmosphere. I found what i was looking for, which is always a positive. I also, believe I may have to go there again and make some friends. 10/10 would go again.
You will find me here every Tuesday night from 6 to 9 p.m. Love this place! Great boardgames. Magic isnt my thing but there is a big crowd for that. RPGs are very popular too. If you like comics check that out too.
Very impressive selection of games and gaming miniatures! The store regularly runs tournaments for various card games and other tabletop games. They even have rooms available to rent to use for D&D sessions or any other games. Definitely worth checking out if youre looking for any kind of tabletop game supplies.
I dont know if the woman who was running the register today owns the place but she was absolutley the most rude person. There is a reason five different people including myaelf ending up sitting their things on the counter and leaving. Go anywhere else than this place please.
I accidentally put 4 stars, but this place definitely deserves 5! Corrected! Thank you guys for always being inviting and inclusive!
One of my favorite places to go for fun and splurging on cards and comics. Very friendly and welcoming staff and manager, very gracious to new players of games, and such a good array of rpg books, comics, miniatures and accessories. My only gripe is the kinda small amount of sealed MTG sets but I know it can be very expensive to stock and Ive never felt like they didnt have enough for my convenience.
I initially gave Event Horizon a 3-star mostly because the customer service had been pretty poor. In the past I had several issues with having to pay to reserve a table and not having the table. The services has improved since. The only reason I dont give them a 5-star is because It seems like the quality of service is highly dependent on who is working that day.
The areas best family and competitive gaming store with very helpful staff and owners.
They were so friendly, They took the time to find out what I was looking for and suggest 2 great games that I purchased. I will continue to visit event horizon games for Sunday night board game play, that they also suggested to me.
Great local game store. Very helpful. Cant go wrong for your gaming fix.
Great selection, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Loads of space for tabletop gaming with friends and some sweet DnD setup in private rooms.
Very friendly staff. Genuinely helpful. They have a very good selection of board games and accessories. Event Horizon also has a variety of events to play and learn new games.
Awesome! I went to my first MTG draft here recently. I was nervous as Im a new player and can be shy but the staff and other players were welcoming and helpful. Im really excited to go back.
One of the most welcoming and friendly places to hang out, play games, and read comics. The staff is polite and knowledgeable. The prices are fair and the selection is amazing. They have 3 private rooms that can be reserved for a small fee and of course you can use one first come first serve unless reserved.
Interesting store, catering more toward card and board games. Tables with high quality mats set up, personnel is happy to help and store is bright and clean. Good spot for what youre looking for.
Good buy back program for singles of trading cards, an very fair prices. The people that work there are very welcoming and nice. Big play spaces, perfect for just about any game. What is keeping the store from a perfect 5 is that the storefronts layout is very difficult to navigate. Where certain things are is a bit confusing and I felt lost trying to find specific games or game components. The aisles dont flow or have very good rhyme or reason behind thing. Board games and small box games were tucked away in the back, but they were in alphabetical order. The selection on a lot of things (Save for t-shirts(?) and collectable nick-knacks) were lacking and they had a lot of expansions and not a lot of the base game for board games. Dont get me wrong, I really like this place and if I could give it a 4.5 then I would, but with the products being hard to locate I cant give it that perfect score.
Its a great location to meet with a group of friends and get lost in games. Board games, card games, and roleplaying games. Very welcoming environment.
Great store with a nice selection of gaming supplies. Staff is very helpful.
Staff is friendly, but unfortunately the management is awful and unprofessional; they pay their workers the federal minimum wage in 2019. I would never recommend going to this store. Prize payouts for events are also awful. I would recommend going to a store that fairly compensates their employees and actually creates a friendly environment for gaming.
The owner and staff are fantastic. They are every helpful and knowledgeable. They have been very patient with my 5 year old, and helping him build a Pokemon deck. We have made this place our go to card shop.
Went here for the first time yesterday. Nice place with a great selection and super friendly and helpful staff. Impressed by all the varied types of gaming tables and the fact they have a rewards program.
Please dont bring your children here. There is at least one sex offender that the owners openly welcome but I wouldnt be surprised if there were more. There are better card shops that dont tolerate that stuff and have better prices anyway.
Im not a regular here, but I stop in every couple of months. Theyre always helpful and have a good mix of games available. Last time I was in, they told me they offer a discount to first responders and military, which I appreciate a lot.
Great store, large and friendly. Staff has always been extremely helpful and they seem to have games almost every night.
Very nice game store, large selection of tabletop games and supplies. The amazing part is the gaming rooms though, top notch place to buy and play
Great staff. Always very welcome and helpful. Awesome assortment of games. Try out before u buy with the check out system too.
I stumbled upon this store almost by accident while looking for a place for my kids to play in Pokemon leagues. Its a great store, and we go often...and, truthfully, I swing by whenever were in the area to pick up a few things for my hobbies.I wish they had a larger variety of WH40K sets, but I can always special order when needed.They sometimes have store-wide POGO offers, so call ahead and plan to spent time and money here.Staff is always friendly, knowledgeable, and events are run well.
Just started my interest in comics about a week ago and the staff helped me as well as they could to help me find comics I would like. I have been very satisfied and have gone there Daily. The prices there are FANTASTIC. The prices are about 1/3 of what you would find on Amazon. They also have many other things than just comics. So if your into RPG or games played on boards this is your place. Again, awesome prices!
This place is great! Family friendly. Knowledgeable staff. Many types of games to experience. Fun place to be.
Great selection of all things geeky, but with that comes a cost. Jack-of-All-Trades and Master-of-None. If the one guy who knows Magic isnt there and you have a question about it, the staff just isnt that helpful. Uniformed and not passionate about their products. Also, higher prices than most Local Gaming Stores. Come here to play, but buy elsewhere.
Went with my nephews, well I shopped for some board games they played a game with the staff. Very helpful and knowledgeable
I love this store!! The staff are amazing, they offer snacks and drinks for purchase, they have a wide variety of games, and you can even play for free in the store!! It is AMAZING!!! I would give it more than 5 stars if I could!!
I went there to find a game and staff there was really kind to introduce me all the differences in the versions, and they also give me detailed introduction for the possible recommendation based on what I played and I liked. They told me they also have rental service so I can rent a game home to try with my friends! This is a really friendly board game store, I will definitely recommend.
Love this place! The people are friendly and welcoming. They are always willing to answer a few questions and even if they dont carry something you want, they are always willing to order it for you!
Very friendly cashiers will give you recommendations on games you purchase. They are knowledgeable about the stores merchandise. Good selection of games.
The place has a good vibe and great collection of singles (my favorite way to buy cards) but they offer less than half the market value of cards in store credit - even less than that if you want cash. I prefer to support local but there is no reason for me not to sell my cards online.
Nice game store with a ton of merchandise and tables. There are a variety of tables, two semi-private rooms and even an area with couches and such. One of the cooler aspects for my use is that they have a ton of terrain in the back you can use, which is awesome while playing D&D. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, there are a good variety of snacks available at a good price, and the atmosphere is welcoming. My group games there a couple of times a month and its always been a good experience with the store. Clean facilities, multiple bathrooms.
Really nice staff, bought a ton of Magic cards despite only visiting the area.
Very nice staff and good prices. My wife and I care in with our twin two year olds and had to leave when they (my kids) started to get upset but the staff never seemed to have any issue with such young children being there. Youd be surprised how rare that is in a gaming store these days. I, as a parent, really appreciate it.
Great store, friendly and helpful staff. FNMs are always well attended, awesome selection of board games and MTG supplies. Awesome rewards program for regular customers. This game store is the best!!
Staff was so friendly in helping new DnD players get started
Rearranged and ready to play! Huge selection of board games, minis and card games, plus tees & toys! Lots of tables for informal gaming as well as a tournament room. Highly recommended.
Excellent selection! Helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff! Cozy store with plenty of room to play games and make friends.
I love this place to shop, I am a YU-GI-OH player so I come here if I can
Great people to play board games with. Diet Cokes and plenty of snacks available for purchase. Overall, had a great time
SO MUCH FUN! Had to make the drive across state a couple times, but each time I stop by here for the friendly staff! Always have a good time here, especially on Friday nights!
Being attentive to reviews your customers make earned you the fifth star and the write up! Owners are awesome. Staff is not afraid to say I do not know or let me find that out for you. Nice selection of board games. It is the only place I go to for my board games in North Carolina. Nice dice selection for roleplaying games. I could go broke there. I worked at a game store for years and this is the only other store I would give five stars to. Being able to run FNM and still have other events going and no long lines at the register is only one example of well this store is managed and how much the employees care.
Great game store, nice spaces for playing, good selection of merchandise.
Great game store the staff are friendly and knowledgeable.
Good selection of both board games, tabletop RPGs, card games, comics and various other accessories. They also have individual conference rooms for private games you can reserve along with tons of space and tables.The staff is friendly and generally knowledgeable in most games. Overall a good place to go if youre looking to play some ganes.
Staff is lovely and knowledgeable! Very welcoming! Definitely will be returning!
Event Horizon Games has a great selection of board games, table top, TCGs, miniatures, and pop culture goodies. They are amazing for the gaming community. Tons of scheduled games and things to join in on too.
Alex helped us a lot with picking out everything we needed to start a successful game of D&D. Wonderful customer service. I definitely recommend this place.
I dont know about the location, but their website looks like it hasnt been updated in a long time, and their forum needs mods taking care of it. Things about prostitutes, horse sex, asian websites for handbags, and all sorts of stuff, yet nothing really related to their shop. It probably started as a good idea, but now they either need to get rid of it, or actually take care of it.I might still check the store out, but the site has me worried their store might be in the same type of state.
Very friendly staff and the store has plenty of room for gaming and supplies.
Lost a order for days and kept promising to call me back. Terrible customer service from most of the staff, but a few good managers there helped out. The owners were friendly and receptive, as well.
Event Horizon is awesome! Ive played in multiple events here and Ive never had a bad time. Tons of room, nice people, and great prices.
Its my fault for not giving the extra star. It needs my full experience, I went for an event and didnt browse the store. I will try and visit at a near future and change my rating. I gave a 4 because the staff makes you feel like family thats always a plus for me when I visit places for the first time.
Gotta love having a specialty game shop right here in South Raleigh/Garner area.
Great store. Friendly and helpful staff (especially Paul). If youre interested in games this is the place to go, they have everything.
Great store and good staff. Had what I needed.
Got what I needed nice and quickly, the staff was helpful and it was an overall great experience.
Good place. Very clean and a diverse mix of games. Independent gaming rooms. Wide variety of Used games. All in all a flgs that is worth supporting.
It seems like a nice place to go play the staff are actually willing to work with you and are very patient I recommend anybody to go here over going towards East Coast gaming
This is the place I play DnD. A great place to play games with good friends.
Event Horizons has a good selection of gaming materials and supplies for sale, as well as excellent spaces to come and play card games/board games/tabletop games with your group.
Loved it as soon as I walked in I felt welcome and more alive. Had old stuff to current stuff. Definitely going be again soon!
Really cool stuff a bit pricey but you should know that going into a game store. The product is for the most part spot on a few things arent marked but if you ask the right employee they should help. Overall though most store like this the experience really comes down to the employees and I can say out of the two there one was extremely nice, respectful, and helpful, but I can say that discription did not fit his peer. I didnt meet the rest of the employees so I cant say anything about them, but I would say this store was worth checking out and Ill be returning next time Im in raleigh.
Ive been here a few times. Mostly to sell cards. I always feel welcomed and everyone is nice and really easy to talk to. I recommend them to everyone.
