I'm a private Pokémon card collector that has never ventured into the world of buy/sell/trade, so I decided I'd call a few shops in the area to see what they'd recommend, and this is exactly how this conversation went. Guy answers phone, i asked him if he had a minute to answer a couple questions i had. "i mean i have a few people I'm helping right now but yeah sure" I proceed to explain that i was looking for guidance or advice on how to offload my extensive Pokémon card collection as I'm moving out of the area, and i was wondering if they had a buyer or something of the sort that would sit down with me and run through it to see what they're willing to buy, etc. He responds, "oookay. Are you planning on paying someone for that?" Confused, i asked what he meant? "Basically what I'm getting at is no, we don't do that. I have a guy here that's really knowledgeable about that kinda stuff but i wouldn't wanna waste his time" I thanked him for his "candid" (read: completely rude) response and that i would look elsewhere. Needless to say I'll never step foot here again.

I have spent hundreds of dollars on product here, on sealled MTG product, deck accessories and DnD books when they first opened. I have gone to multiple pre-releases since then and I do enjoy going to commander here. But with their rising cost for pre-releases and the insane low balling they have given me when asking for trade ins I have been going to other stores more now especially since their move into Northridge. This is a great place to play, especially when your bringing your own deck but any limited format is a higher price than average. We shouldn't let these stores normalize these prices. I can only speak on MTG pricing and trades I have no idea if this is the same for Pokemon and Lorcana etc. I do build Gunpla and their Gunpla pricing is pretty fair but I feel like the Gunpla is really just an afterthought at this store and the sets they have on display are not anything to write home about. I don't remember seeing them selling a bunch of tools to help builders step up their building either. I would much rather buy from a Hobby Shop that's actually dedicated to the craft.

This is a late, but important review! We were invited to my child's classmate's birthday party in…read moreearly October. We didn't know the family or child well, only that he was turning four and has an older brother. I purposely wanted to shop local and support an independent business, and a quick search on Yelp led me here. We arrived about an hour before closing on Saturday, which was great because parking meters end at 4pm and we found parking out front easily. We were greeted by an employee behind the desk as we walked in. She asked if there was anything she could help us find, and I let her know we were first time customers looking for a birthday gift with the details mentioned above. She let us know the layout of the store, her suggestions, but let us look freely. Over time more customers arrived with small children, and received the same courteous service. The store is clean and curated. I appreciated seeing well made toys and items inspiring imaginative play, rather than cheap plastic with distracting lights or sounds. I eventually chose a doctor play set as well as some items for my own children, such as animal figures and stamp markers. They offer free gift wrapping, which is a nice touch. The one alarming fact that stood out is that there were many empty storefronts on their block, so it's more important than ever to support our local economy. Their prices reflect investment in well made items, so I would not come here expecting big box store deals. In a world full of Target and Amazon, I would rather spend my money supporting a local, independent business. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back with our kids this holiday season.

They have large open tables with outlets ideal for working or playing tabletop games, a cozy couch corner by the window for reading, and bar seating for a quick bite and coffee. They offer a huge selection of drink options including a seasonal rotation of really interesting flavoured drinks. It was hard for us to decide as everything looked really tasty. We appreciated the baristas patience and recommendations and finally landed on trying Ryan's chocolate orange and the pear latte. We enjoy both the drinks we got, the flavours were well balanced and not too sweet. They also have really fun shaped ice cubes which added an extra layer of whimsy and delight. We had a great time sipping our coffee, having great conversation while enjoying the rare rainy view of LA. I'd definitely recommend coming by AND Destroy, especially if you like board games or table top games! I definitely want to come back again to try their other drinks and delicious looking Ube pie.

It was creamy and decadent. I also wanted to mention that they had pastries and empanadas, too. They were so welcoming and made me feel really happy to be there, especially with the cool music and atmosphere. They have Wi-Fi, and it seemed like many people were working while also enjoying the café. I am definitely going back to try other items on their menu and add inside pics the next time I go back.

Staff here is great. They're friendly and very informative which is always a nice sight to see for newcomers. In the back, you'll find many tables where people visit to play all types of games. Ranging from board games, cards, DnD, and list goes on. Best part is that you can try all types of games for free. My wife and I visited with some friends and we had such a wonderful time playing board games. Time flew by so fast as we were all having fun. I'd say the tables could use some cleaning but very spacious overall. Parking is out in the back but it's pretty limited. Street parking is also available but watch out for time slots. Overall, very happy about Odyssey Games, very much a must visit spot if you love board games. Place can get packed as you'll often find plenty of people here.

I love this shop! My friends and I were looking for a place to play Modern. These guys run a Cash Event on Mondays that has been an absolute blast to play in. The crowd that attends is good-natured and the tournament is well managed. The singles for sale are well organized and the staff is highly knowledgeable on MtG current events and trends.

This spot has been the most friendly and welcoming to me as a total new guy jerk to magic. The atmosphere is super fun and not full of 12 year olds that get dropped off by their parents and then destroy you in two turns and make you feel super awkward and sad about your life. Sometimes people bring you mountain dew and pizza. Super fun and lots of different nights and formats to play.

I am not sorry to give such a poor review but vaccination cards are NOT being checked when a player registers for an event. That is against the state mandate. Also, when I used to go to turn zero games, the playerbase there are mostly smokers/vapors. At any given day, there could be upwards of 5 to 10 people smoking/vaping out side the store. The amount of profanity that is used in that store is astounding. be warned of a horrible gaming experience read more

The downside is they don't have cards for you to sift through so you can't really discover new cards for purchase, just have to have a list prepared in mind. They also have a rewards system so you can gather points to spend on your next purchase as a discount.
