There was an event taking place, with many patrons playing a card-based strategy game toward the back. Good crowd and everyone seemed to be having fun. Retro game selection was impressive. Plenty to look through if that was your goal. However, we were hoping to pick up some newer games and simultaneously support a small, local, business. Selection of newer stuff was nominal, which was disheartening. Staff said hello, but never approached, never offered to help or strike up conversation. Prices were a bit higher than anticipated. However, I'd willingly pay it to support a local, non-chain, store. However, there wasn't much for me here when I visited.

They also have card matches and the place is organized CONS: scarce street parking, owner can be a bit snippy, and most items don't have a price tag so you have to ask each time you want a price OVERALL: I will continue to come here since it's the only store of it's type and it does a good job supplying and buying games

I have been stopping at a board game shop in every town I have been visiting. This was the best one…read morenear Parsippany, NJ we were visiting for a convention. This was in Booton, NJ, on the way back to Syracuse, NY. The shop was a large room with tables for open gaming and tournaments, and the walls were lined with merchandise for sale--ranging from board games to trading cards. There was plenty of light, and the people playing Magic towards the back were very friendly and welcoming. The gentleman behind the counter was very nice! The coolest part is you can ask for the secret password, based on a quest posted outside the space down the road a little bit, and you can get into the Gaming Lounge addition. When you go in to the Gaming Lounge, it feels like you're stepping into some kind of hobbit hole, and the further back you go, the more space there is to play games with friends. There is even a fireplace! The space is super cozy and features a huge wall of games to play with friends. If I lived anywhere near by, I would go to this shop all the time! The cards they sold were even reasonably priced, so I also love that.

I felt welcomed, the place is clean, and for a Saturday afternoon during COVID, the place was…read morehopping! But I've definitely seen places with a bigger selection and more game knowledge. The shopkeeper listened intently while I told him what kind of gaming experience I was looking for. But it didn't go a lot farther than that. I wanted something narratively heavy, with less rule complexity and overhead than Lord of the Rings: Journeying through Middle Earth. He didn't really have an answer for me, and I felt I gave him a lot to work off of. To give you an idea how small this place is - the pictures in this review represent half the games in the store. There's one extra bookshelf that I didn't catch and there's a display case in front with CCG cards. Shopping experience aside, you can tell this place has a good community. There were four tables occupied in the back around 4 PM on a Saturday - maybe representing 10 people - and there's a big communal shelf you can draw from if you want to play in house. I'd come back to play and make new friends.

The owners came out and chatted with us about pokemon cards, figures, and other collectables. They were so nice, and gave my son a few cards for free to start his collection, as well as a kit to put them in. Overall a great experience, and I will definitely be coming here for any future collectables.

I gave them a call because they put a cone infront of my car door for absolutely no reason because I wasn't even parked near the front of the parking lot. This is not my first bad encounter with this establishment. The lady I spoke with on the phone seems miserable and bored. Mad over a parking space meanwhile there's two other cars in the parking lot.

From awesome items in stock to such a friendly, warm & welcoming vibe provided by the employees.

I couldn't thank the staff enough for everything they had done for me. I'll be sure to stop in here anytime I'm in the area

And You better believe I can schlep with the Best of 'em. Especially now that everything is getting back to "sorta kinda normal" it's like I'm making up for lost time. Like I'm getting My schlepping on in double time which is cool too because 'T' Shirts are on sale here for buy Two Get One Free!!    Now hopefully these types of stores stick around for a long time because I really wouldn't wanna hang out in a Mall that didn't have a Hot Topic in it. I mean it's a pretty crappy thought, but with everything going the way that it is, the possibility is real. If any of that ever does happen My Mall schlepping days will be over.   5 Stars for this place and the Super Cool Staff that operates it. Come And Get Your Shopping On!!

The prices of the store I think should be dropped some because most of the things in there are tad bit too pricey. I don't like the clearance section much, because everytime you go back there you never find anything that fits you. Well it would probably fit you, but not me. I also go in there for there Corsets as well they have some hot corsets as well as skirts. I mean smokin hot. The sales assoc. are very nice/ friendly helpful people. I the store is about medium sized. They have a wall that has band t-shirts on it. I'm pretty sure you can find any band that you can possibly think of on this wall. They have neat looking sneakers. I like there sneakers alot because i can get away with making the checker pattern out of my laces. Well if you have money and you're into the punk/ sk8er/ goth scene then Hot topic is for you.
