It's a niche game store. The clerk was knowledgeable about games and also was willing to help pick a game. They organized the store well by types of games. They have a large selection. I got this new game called "S*** Happens". I'm hoping it's a fun party game. They also have toys and puzzles. Lots of variations of games like Game of Thrones Catan and also Monopolies.

Great place to buy smart toys! Some prices are better than Amazon.

I like to visit the store almost twice a month to look for new games. Even when they have a new employee they completely engage with you.

Bought guesstures for $30. Find out it's $8 on prime and Walmart. Also when we got home the game is defective and doesn't work. This store and the game sucks

Cute Board Game shop with a friendly owner

I've been patronizing this store for over 10 years, buying a game nearly every time I'm in Santa Barbara. This was my first visit since covid. I hope they will take a couple suggestions: (1) When a customer (not me) is making a purchase and asks the employee (who said he was related to the owner) to put a mask on, it is common courtesy these days to do so. "I forgot my mask at home" is not a good excuse. There should be masks available in the store for employees at all times. (2) I was surprised when we learned that the game Hive is one of the top sellers that the employee had never played it. Usually I'm used to the employees knowing the games like the back of their hands. I bought one as a gift but might have purchased a second or a different game, but I didn't get any suggestions that fit - a first time for that.

This is a cute little game store that me and my wife stumbled into. We came to Santa Barbara to visit on our honeymoon and the woman running the store was very quick to suggest easy travel sized games that were fun, innovative, and new. We ended up getting some great dice and card games that we've never heard of before. She was very helpful. We love stores that have an equal balance between super nerdy and very easy/accessible games. This one has both, so whatever you're looking for, you'll probably find it here.

The young man that helped us with our game was fantastic on suggesting us to get some wine at the store across the street. He even wished us a happy anniversary. Awesome shop!

This place is awesome. Large selection of board games and the person behind the counter was very knowledgeable and super helpful. He listened to what I was looking for and had several excellent recommendations. Been having a lot of fun with the games we got from here, stop and look around if you get the chance.

Great store to find games that aren’t readily available at bigger stores like Target. Loved talking with the staff as well. Very passionate about games and made some great recommendations.
