My brother is a big gamer, and I also enjoy board games, so my family swung in here while having…read morelunch in Downers Grove. There were lots of board and card games of all sorts, as well as dice, miniatures and paints, and a gaming area for community games. I appreciate that the rules for the space are clearly posted on the wall behind the register, so the expectation for everyone is established (I would imagine it makes it easier for staff to enforce as well, because they can just refer to the sign). The clerk was very friendly and gave me some info about a game I was interested in (a collaborative version of "The Fox in the Forest"; my fiance and I love the original version), which I ended up purchasing! Glad to support a local business! I'll be back for more games.

I'm not a "regular" patron of Fair Game, but it's a shop I love to pop into every couple of months…read moreto pick up hobby supplies like paint, brushes or the occasional model kit. Every time I've ever stopped in, I've been treated kindly & with respect by the staff working there - which is *not* a given when you're a solo guy with tattoos shopping alone, trust & believe that. A really helpful & nice gentleman named Jackson showed me the "buy 1, get one 1 free" deal they were running for some of their paints. He made the process of shopping for/choosing different colors or different formulas really easy, & honored the deal fairly! He was helpful & cool. Anyone who is into wargaming, table top miniatures etc KNOWS that any kind of buy 1, get 1 deal on high end paints like Citadel, Vallejo or Army Painter is an insanely good value. Also, there has always been some kind of community gaming event happening whenever I've stopped in; which tells me it's *clearly* an important hub for the TCG/TWG community. As a hobbyist, grateful to have the store around. (PS, if you stock the new GW Aeldari kits for Lhykhis, Baharroth, or Swooping Hawks, I'd buy them)

I just experienced my first and last time in the store. The card selection was a bit overpriced,…read morebut the real disappointment was in the way that fellow card players have shown themselves to be a toxic and a loudmouthed community. One player in particular went out of his way to more or less yell that people playing a particular deck are "pieces of $hit.". Well needless to say I have far better things to do on a Saturday night then be verbally berated. I won't be back to this store and will actually be reporting them to riot games.

They also will rub their fingers over the surface of the card for an unknown reason. I hope they will be more careful in the future when handling expensive cards, including when pulling the card out of the toploader. They handed the man-handled card back to me raw. They had a great selection of modern and older sealed product. The computer was a awesome and can look up cards for sale. They "dont do foreign languages" for trade in

I have been to plenty of hobby stores and never have seen cards organized the way they have it set up. No sleeves. Many cards in one binder slot.

Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area, or if you're looking for a great place to find gifts for birthdays or the holidays.

Love these guys! If…read moreyou're looking for old/retro console games this place is it! Large selection of various old console games. If you're into magic they also have a huge selection and a pretty sizable player base with events hosted weekly! I go there mainly for Warhammer. They offer a good discount off of MSRP and have a wide selection! They have a lot of "old hammer" boxes and sets from the early 1990s! Very cool! Lots of current models too! They have free gaming tables and some of the best terrain I've seen on those tables in the area!

It's very convenient to know what's in stock and to get timely answers. Most hobby places I've dealt with in the past are very slow when it comes to responses/non existent.

To the fun stuff - it's a classic card shop with a great selection and cool memorabilia as well. They also do very fun raffles as well which is extra reason to continue to spend money on your hobby :) Keep up the great work!
