This where I go for all of my tabletop gaming needs. It's always a treat when I get to go to this…read morewonderful business, which may seem hushed and quiet during the day, but it only adds to its mystique and charm that would be typical of a magic shop. This place works great for me because it's really close to my house and it's locally owned. That way I don't have to drive a long way to find what I need for my Dungeons and Dragons campaign. The Hero's Emporium has always had a great selection of brushes, paints, and miniatures that I have come to rely heavily upon as a Dungeon Master. I am always able to find the miniatures that I am looking for whether that be a female gnome paladin or several packages of gnolls that I can paint and throw at my party. All the miniatures are very reasonably priced too, so I can get even larger miniatures like a storm giant for only around $15. For as long as miniatures take me to paint, this is well worth the money. I also want to mention that they offer a decent selction of dice sets to choose from, which is important for any D&D campaign, especially when your dice are fickle. I also love that they offer both old and new sourcebooks for D&D as well as official Nolzurs paint sets, and Icons of the Realms. This gives me a large pool to choose what will be most exciting for my party. Finally I wanted to mention that this business has also done tabletop nights. Although I personally have not attended one of those events, I support the space this business is building for the tabletop community. The staff has also always been very welcoming and helpful, making sure that I am finding everything that I am searching for. I am also occasionally able to find expansion packs for a bit more obscure card game called Smash Up here, which is delightful considering that it's so hard to find in just a regular store like Target. I will continue to come back and support this business in their mission to help the tabletop community thrive.

Great selection of D&D and MTG stuff!…read more Also lots of other games, miniatures and accessories. They also have lots of weekly events and leagues to join. Fun atmosphere, great staff and customers!

They have any type of game you could think of from Cyanide and Happiness card games to miniatures you can paint for DND. Whenever we are in the area, we will try to pop in and see if there are any new games that have been released or any new recommendations from the people that work here. They are so so helpful and will help you pick out something new and fun if you tell them what you like or what you are looking for. My boyfriend says they have one of the best DND collections in regards to books, minis, starting packs, etc. You might end up spending a smidgen more here, but in my opinion it's always better to support a store like this over Amazon. They have a rewards program so when you spend a certain amount of money, you get a reward to use in store. If you are feeling like you're facing the Covid/social isolation blues, pop in here and get yourself a new board game to play with your roommates or family.

This is such a cool games spot. You can find an assortment of board/card games (most I had no idea…read morewhat they were). They had different type of dice (up to 8 sides) and chess boards which was cool to me. Some of the games seemed a bit expensive for me though. This is a great store for people of all ages. You are bound to find something that you like. Exploring this store was definitely fun and I saw a few cool gift ideas for friends who love trying new board games. The place is well organized, clean and has some fun decor. The staff is friendly and helpful.

I came in for the Magic the Gathering Lorwyn Eclipse prerelease playing Two Headed Giant with a friend, and the entire event ran smoother than a hyperspace jump. From registration to the final round, everything was organized, on time, and genuinely fun. No chaos, no dark side rulings, just solid event management. The Magic community here is strong. Friendly players, good vibes, and a welcoming atmosphere whether you're a veteran Jedi or still figuring out which lands to tap. It's the kind of shop where you feel comfortable coming back even if you don't know everyone yet. Moon Shot Games has earned a repeat visit. Great staff, great events, and a community worth supporting. The Force is strong here, and I'll definitely be back for future missions.

Hate when an individual ruins the atmosphere of a small business I especially enjoyed supporting…read moretoo! Just walked out of the store and had to write this review because of the poor attitude my husband and I encountered during our visit. We were looking at the displays and Pokemon TCG stuff they had available behind the counter when my husband asked whether they were getting the new set coming out. The sales associate said yes and showed off the new products and stated it wouldn't go on sale until tomorrow. My husband and him joked around about the set when a separate man behind the counter wearing a pink beanie chimed in and stated in a poor attitude to his sales associate, "Hey can you just move that shipment somewhere else so people can stop asking about it?" Which led his sales associate to stop our conversation and leave to move the shipment that wasn't meant to be brought up! No worries on that! You hadn't realize you lost a sale when you interrupted with your negative attitude!

When we visited, there were several people at the tables playing games. The place was hoppin'. There's also a lounge area with comfy leather couches where you can play games or just hang out. Their website says that they are a LGBTQ-led store, which is really neat and not something you see very often in the Midwest. They specialize in underground games, small indie games and Kickstarter-backed games. Good Games is located in downtown Indianapolis, just off of Monument Circle. It's centrally located and in the middle of everything, so it's a good spot to relax and play games.

Running a comic shop can be tough, but for some stores, the joy of browsing old issues and feeling…read morethe comics is what makes them special. Unfortunately, this store doesn't quite capture that magic. Upfront, I want to say that it appears to have been around for a while, attracting dedicated comic fans. It is doing something right. It also hosts local card tournaments (and maybe D&D?), but I can't speak to the variety of those. This might be their bread and butter. Not sure. The comic section, however, is a mess. As soon as you walk in, you pass a narrow row of shelves about 5 feet tall facing away from you--it's unclear why, but it makes the space feel small or uninviting. Still, it isn't a large space, and it doesn't match the charm of classic comic shops. Felt more like I was entering a dark porn store from the 80s. For my trip, I had read revieews and as a local comic store, I wanted to check it out. I was looking for back issues. Remember stores with hundreds of boxes overflowing with comics packed in too tight to see the comics? Yep, that is this place. Navigating the shop is tricky: new comics are on hanging shelves too close together, forcing you to crouch and strain to see them under the shelf above. Independent comics are on the far left of the store in the back - between the boxes and boxes and boxes and boxes and boxes of back issues. The backstock is packed with rows of comics, about 25% overflow in each box (plus stacks of comics on top of those boxes). Very hard to browse. When you do find a title, the comics tend to be dusty, and although sealed, I didn't have my glasses to check for spine ticks or other issues. But, it can't be good to store comics on top of a box without a lid. If you're hunting for key back issues, forget it--these have been picked over like roadkill in the desert; there's nothing valuable left. Instead, you'll find many comics priced between $1-$2, labeled at $4-$8 or more, but most are from the past and generally worthless. I can't tell if the store is clean, but it felt dirty (maybe the lighting or the dusty boxes?). If I were to advise the store - even though they seem to be doing fine - I'd suggest selling your stock on Whatnot, starting at $1 per comic, to gauge interest. If you can clear out 35% of your back issues that way, you won't need to sell low-value comics at higher prices. I understand the reluctance to take losses - I've felt the same - but if your stock is holding back from creating a warm, vibrant, energetic atmosphere, it might be worth doing. There's no shame in dumping unsellable stock as a tax write-off. Listing those low-priced comics at $4-$6 could generate significant revenue and help the store thrive. Personally, I think this is the best approach, as you don't need to spend hours selling thousands of comics. I will note that the staff were friendly. I spoke with one staff member and they are knowledgeable about the stock they had. My guess is this might be where the store shines for people. The human touch. I so wanted to like this place. But, maybe I wait until I make trips to Chicago in the future.

Ms. Sadako (owner's mother) is always friendly and sweet; I enjoy the conversations I have with her. It's always fun to just stop by and browse, and they also have a small section of old nostalgic Japanese manga. The owner, Roy, is very knowledgeable and can help you find what you're looking for. He has a great sense of humor and he's full of interesting stories. I didn't grow up near a comic book store, but I hope this is what the good ol' days were like. Just a quirky family business with a strong sense of community. So stay for a while, and enjoy meeting old and new friends.

The table reservations are $40, but once you arrive, that money becomes credit to be used in the store for food, drinks, games, etc. They have a coffee shop in the back with elixers, coffee and tea, and a small assortment of baked goods. They also have a large selection of brand new games and game novelties for purchase. In the very back, behind the coffee counter is a selection of games that can be played while in the store. There is no charge for those. You cannot bring your own food or drink in. The table reservations are for 2 hrs I believe. They also do events in the store like D&D.
