    I think they could be friendlier -- or just better. (A tiny bit cheap, or weird.) Trying to buy a Magic Kit, for my daughter's B-day. And I had a game, I'd bought from them a while earlier... (Long story, short: recently Divorced, so bought a game, Dixit, we already had; but not sure if they liked it anymore. So still in original plastic, never opened.) I wasn't asking for cash; just an exchange or in-store credit. And: I have the receipt somewhere... I asked if they could look it up from my card. They said No. Or: "You should recognize the sticker," I say. "Oh, no," he said. "Walmart has the same stickers." - which isn't true. [& It's not the greatest Magic Kit, ever. A little last-minute shopping.] So: I was a little fr

    I got a DeathWing Assault box from them recently. I was very happy that I managed to find one.

    The staff where very friendly, patient, and answered all my questions. I would definitely recommend Games Galore.

    Never ventured into a comic book store before in my life. Having a little boy will expose you to new adventures all the time. We stopped in for a comic book for a reward for our son, and wow. It's more that just comics. There are all sorts of toys and collectibles. Stuffed animals, squishy toys, hot wheels, little cars and trains. A whole wall of comic books. We were searching for something that would be appropriate to read with a young kid, and the staff was able to guide us in the right direction. It was clean and organized. So many little things in there to see. Definitely a place to keep in mind the next time I'm shopping for a birthday party.

    Four stars for having a decent selection of board games, even carrying some of the more popular European fare. Knowledgeable and helpful staff who will help you find the game you're looking for. Lost a star for not having completely competitive pricing (excusable for a B&M store in a mall), and for always seeming to have CCG tourneys going on in the middle of the (already small) store, making it near impossible to browse. Besides, it seems like at least ONE person in every CCG group decides bathing is optional, and the place smells accordingly during CCG events. This is one of the few places in town to get games like Carcassonne, Settlers of Catan, Small World, Pandemic, Shadows over Camelot, Battlestar Galactica, and some expansions for the above, but don't expect them to have a huge selection of the less mainstream games. Give them a shot if you're looking for something in town, but don't be surprised if you can't even get to their shelves much if there's a tournament going.

    Picking up some new additions to my miniatures collection!

They have new and used books as well within a reasonable price point. I found lots of great educational books from my preschooler. I even find coloring books and other things they are interested it. Our child likes tonsit on the chair and stare at the books they find. Its very well kept inside and they have a public restroom if you plan to stay longer. They even offer some hot tea and coffee. If you please. Parking lot is there, but as they are popular can get crowded. Overall its a wonderful place that we visit so often.

With the loss…read moreof Zephyr Books many years ago and the Book Gallery in Sparks, there just aren't enough quality used bookstores any longer. Grassroots Books is a very good used bookstore with a lot of variety of material-- children's books, DVD's, some records, gently used paperback and hardcover books. Hours are flexible for when they are open, however, they only buy books on Thursdays during the afternoon. I have never been tempted much to sell anything to them over the years, as they tend to be quite choosy with the material that they want and don't want. As a longtime book collector, this is important to maintaining a quality used stock and helps with inventory management. I highly recommend Grassroots for your next book adventure!

To say I was blown away is an understatement. It's still got the quintessential CnC charm and humor, but amped up to 10 with lifesize displays, larger murals, more merch and those vibes we all love about this place! The bar area got a massive plus up in Sparks, with a full cocktail program, craft beers, and lots of delightful NA options too. The plush blue chairs look super inviting, and I can just imagine the fun times spent here hanging into the evening. Baristas are super friendly and the menu features all the faves from Reno, and then some! Here's the rub. It's hidden in a quiet corner of the best shopping center in all of Sparks. You've got CnC, Mountain Mike's, Smashin' Good Times, Paleteria del Angel, and Shang Hai restaurant all in the same spot, and you can have one helluva day just bouncing from one to the other. I sure hope my friends will find their way here to check it out for yourselves. They have awesome events and programs too, so scope the socials for the schedule and make a plan!

    First, let me say that yes, the store is a bit overpriced on some items. The actual stationery is…read moreactually fairly priced. I love the selection; however, I feel like they have limited offerings. The blind boxes are lacking, pokemon is popular, yes. But so is Disney, SailorMoon, Sword Art, Jujutsu Kaisen, etc... don't get me wrong. I do like the ones they have [overall], just would like to see some other options. A lot of these blind boxes are what you could find if you were to go to Japan and visit their gashapon locations. I would LOVE to see an entire row of those machines stocked in there. I'd probably go broke if they did that. As for service. The staff is typically friendly, but I did hear them tell others they couldn't bring drinks or food in there. I get it. They want to protect the goods and let's be honest here folks. People NO LONGER care about others property. People are so careless and have an attitude of, 'Oh, well, too bad' and don't care if they stain something that now has to be written off. You may not like it, but be respectful. It's really not that hard folks. I hope that they change it up a little though and bring in more stuff. I also hope that someday people will understand that this is a collectables store with stationery.

    Unfortunately our most recent visits have been lackluster and underwhelming.

The figure selection has been so so but nothing really worth being excited about. The prices for many items have also increased significantly. My kiddo was coming here for cinnamoroll, hutsune miku, chikawa, and spirited away items. However both hot topic and box lunch have had almost identical items for typically 15% less on average. It's a bummer because we liked coming here. Now it's kinda a let down.

    This had to be the weirdest thrift store experience I have ever had. We were drawn to the shop by…read moregoogle and the zen name & signs out front. At first we thought it was closed because all of the lights were off. But the main door was unlocked and we entered. There was 3 people sitting at the table in the middle of the store - they stared us down but didn't say a word. We wondered the entire store which was primarily books, movies/dvds/VHS & furniture, with a few odds and ends. I think my definition of "gift store" is different than theirs because I didn't see much that I would categorize in that department. The odor in this store was the usual thrift store aroma, with a splash of...something very unpleasant. We saw what looked like a music venue in the back with a few guys talking really loudly from that area. After wondering the store, we started to work our way to the front when one of the gentleman practically ran to follow us out. When we looked back at him, he pulled out his key and dangled it indicating he was locking the door behind us, still not saying a single word to us. Out of probably 5 people in that store, not a single one said anything to us. If they were closed, they should have locked the door behind them - it was Saturday late morning.... I would label this more as a used book/music/movie store. I definitely won't waste my time here again. Such a weird experience!
