    Workers are an absolute delight and were willing to help us learn any game we were interested in. Steven asked what board games we liked and recommended games that were spot on! We even ended up buying the game he recommended. New favorite spot!!!

    Love this place!! An awesome venue to go and try out new board games. They have a really quality library of diverse games including hot new ones. They continue to add to their collection and even host an event on Tuesdays to try out new games. Sunday afternoons are a great time to go and meet up with new people and join in a game. There is an event via Meetup in the East County Tabletop group from 1-8pm I believe every Sunday. Also, they have gone all in on providing a positive experience for their players. The tables have quality surfaces, the chairs are very comfortable, and there are plenty of little bowls available for game pieces. The whole place is very clean and the games are organized alphabetically. Very friendly staff. Snacks and drinks available to buy, and you can simply open a tab and pay at the end. $5 entrance fee or they offer a $25 per month membership option. Definitely check it out!

    Many many games. Some of which are available to play in store

    Welcoming board game store not only for browsing and recommendations, but also for community hang outs. I'm so glad this place exists!

    OMG. It's great place for playing Board Games! The number of games available is cray! Coming again and again!

    Gaming space with huge tables and new hot games!

    On a random search for new board game stores in the area I happened to find Off The Shelf Games and I am so happy that we stopped in to check it out! A lovely little game store in the front of the space and a huge selection of new and varied board games to try in the back for the low entrance fee for day use (or membership). The tables were a perfect size and there was even a selection of little bowls to use for components, etc!! I loved this detail. The staff was super kind and helpful and gave us a tour on our first stop in which prompted us to come back later in the day to actually game. They had great safety protocols in place, only a few tables set up well over 6 ft away from each other, all employees masked, hand sanitizer and a game quarantine of 72 hours for any game played there. They also had a game rental program which is something you can't find often around here. We played for several hours and afterwards chatted about new games coming to the store in the upcoming weeks. Such a delight and the other people gaming were very respectful and it felt great to hear the voices of other gamers again. So glad to have this and hope to come back again soon.

    My gaming group always has trouble finding a good place to meet. No one's house is ideal, this place doesn't have big tables, that one doesn't have good lighting, this one closes too early, and that one doesn't like us hanging out for long periods of time. Off the Shelf Games is exactly what we've been looking for. They have good hours, great lighting, lots of comfortable chairs, and tables big enough to really spread out all your pieces. If you don't have your own games, there are plenty here to choose from. They have an extensive game library with lots of the modern classics along with plenty I've never heard of before. There's a good selection for both kids and adults, with a wide variety of types. They skew more toward light and mid-weight complexity, but there are some brain burners in there too like Through the Ages. No outside food is allowed, but they sell reasonably priced snacks and drinks, along with a small selection of games and accessories to take home. There is a use fee, but they're positioning themselves (legitimately) as a cheaper, more interesting alternative to a night at the movies. Unfortunately, the location doesn't work for me, but if I were more local, I would definitely buy a membership!

    Hmm what game should we play next   so so so many options!

    See all

    Do you carry any Games Workshop products?

    Hi! We do not carry Games Workshop Products. You could check out Warp Rider Games, Game Empire, or At Ease Games. I believe that they all carry Games Workshop products. Thanks!

I didn't catch her name -- she wore glasses -- but she was incredibly sweet to my girls and even gifted them each a Pokémon Trainer Box. It absolutely made their day. They haven't stopped talking about building decks since. They spent the rest of our visit carefully picking out their favorite cards from the mixed singles boxes -- Jigglypuff and Pancham were top picks -- and wide-eyed staring at some of the wildly priced cards (definitely made me wish I'd held onto mine from back in the day!). Here's hoping their new Pokémon passion doesn't completely drain my wallet... but this shop made 2/22 a day they won't forget. Thank you -- especially to the kind employee who went out of her way to make two little girls feel so special. We'll absolutely be back!

They have sections based on what your looking for: War games, painting, dnd, and board games. There are very clear sections of the store.

We only ended up leaving with a Trans mimic sticker (queer friendly!!) and had a lovely interaction with staff members before leaving.

It was more than time to find a local game store. I started the search and came across Brute Force Games. They had a pretty decent website. So I gave the store a call, and asked stupid questions (is this in stock?). While they didn't have what I was looking for, the staff was super helpful and didn't mind the questions. I decided that I would have to stop by the store in person. The overall aesthetics of the shop were amazing. Much larger than I was anticipating - but the layout was extremely well setup. With the cashiers being in the middle, they had 3 different registers going at the same time. While there was still a rather large line, it went by rather quick. The store also had a great selection of products, I was able to find the Alien RPG expansion - which I haven't seen in most stores. They also had a wide range of TCGs, Board Games, Trinkets and Warhammer stuff. While we were shopping there were running a Magic the Gathering tournament - there was plenty of space for both shoppers and players. The entire stuff was quite helpful, and we were able to find everything we were looking for. Overall a very solid experience - certainly one of the better game stores I've been to. Not only is it clean, but there is plenty of room. You most likely find something you are looking for, and the best part is that they are local.
