Their prices aren't much cheaper than the actual company's that made the models/paints but what they do offer is a rewards service that will keep you coming back. Earn enough points and you'll be getting $10-20 off your next purchase, which can really go a long way. The staff is super friendly and they have built a great community in the Hoover/Birmingham area. If you are looking to get a game in, or try out a board game, over half the store is dedicated to just that. Can't say enough good things about Gear Gaming!

This past weekend we had the honor of checking out Valhalla Board Game Cafe grand opening. Most…read morepeople that know me know I am not much of a board game player but will always join in and play some cool board games! I was mainly here to support friends and of course eat some food! So Adam Valentine, the other co-owner, and his staff have been working hard getting this place ready and it definitely showed! I mean every last detail was covered. The art on the walls were spectacular as well as the decor and custom tables with their logo on it. They even have merchandise for you to check out and purchase. Easy 10/10. The staff was amazing everyone was all smile, very helpful, and very quick. I didn't feel rushed or unwanted it was super welcoming. With all the people that were there they did a great job. Staff gets an easy 10/10. Now I'm sure you guys want to know about the food that's what you're here for right? The food was very simple but very high quality. They were working with a limited menu for the opening so this menu may change or just have more options in general in the future. I ordered the chicken sandwich it was kinda like a club sandwich (I don't remember the name of the sandwich sorry) it had cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and a huge pile of deli sliced chicken. Not to mention the super soft brioche sliced bread. Did I mention the meats and cheeses are all the Boar's Head products?! The sandwich was absolutely delicious the only thing I would have wished I could've had done was have the bread toasted. Other then that it gets a solid 8.9/10. You also get a pickle and a choice of chips baked or regular and your choice of different coffees, soda, or water. I want to point out we also got a charcuterie board with lots of meats, cheese, fruits, and vegetables. It was really good of course just wish it was a easier way to get the deli meats of the scewers like tongs or something without everyone touching it with their hands when sharing it. I really enjoyed my time here and plan to be back especially to try more stuff on that menu and play games of course! It was so fun and I encourage everyone to go check this place out and show these guys some support. They are located in the Campus No. 124 building.

Their selection is low for what some people might think of as a general game store. Many games are simply not offered. What is there tends to be older and not particularly well priced. Positive reviews appear to be mostly from when they had different management. Thankfully, there appears to be new competition in town.

Shelves that used to have no room for another box of mini's now only hold a few boxes of a random selection. Glass cases that held thousands of cards now only a single layer of 10-20 cards displayed. A shop that used to be Visions Cards and Games, now known as "Blurred Vision with Cards and Lames." I don't make that up someone standing outside the store did.
