Amazing store! Staff is always knowledgeable and ready to help. Large selection of record albums and skateboards in addition to gaming. Not much Pokemkon or YuGiOh product when I was there but great selection of board games for everyone. Nice selection of tabletop games & models and role playing games.

My first time coming here was yesterday and all I have to say is WOW! From the moment I walked in, someone was there greeting me. One particular employee, Carolyn, followed up with me to ask if I was finding everything ok or needed help with anything. She helped me find a board game based on a list of games I previously played. She made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. Excellent customer service/staff, highly recommended to anyone looking for a diverse selection of games.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place. Best part about Third Eye is that everyone who works there loves their job, and it reflects in their customer service. Got a question about which board game to buy? (I did) They have a plethora of knowledge, and most of them play the games they sell so you know youre getting advice from personal experience. Need some kids games, books, card games, records, or even legit Halloween mask? They have it! and so much more. Oh, did I mention that their comic store is stacked full of mountains upon mountains of comics!!!

Amazing customer service. Very quickly greeted. Very helpful. You also cant ignore the absolutely obscene amount of product they sell. From Pokemon-MTG. 40k and warmahordes. Comics and so much more. As you can tell I go here first before ordering anything online.

First time visiting the store and I was immediately blown away. Not only do they have a large selection to cater to multiple hobbies, they treat their customers with a ton of care and respect.Several of us had lined up to get Monarch 1st edition boxes and they promised anyone standing in line would get a box if they had enough. At the price they were given, its incredible that they show this level of respect to the communityWill definitely be coming back 💙

I go here a lot for their miniatures selection. They are pretty fairly priced and offer a wide selection of gaming materials, hobby supplies, and toys. I was surprised to see they also sell vinyl records but their music selection is pretty good too. Theres a little something for everyone here.

These folks are reputable and clearly care about getting collectibles and games into the hands of players over making short term profit margins hand over fist. The space is incredible, the staff is extremely nice, and they clearly care about their customers.I showed up on release day for a highly scalped product - and they offered it at a very modest increase over MSRP. Put into perspective - they could have easily withheld stock and made 10s of thousands more online. Instead they offered it to the players at reasonable prices. Everyone won.They took phone orders for people who couldnt show up at opening in order to service the folks who had school or had to work, and told everyone who showed up before opening they would get a box (inventory permitting), making it fair to anyone willing to line up. This prevented a mass buyout from any one customer looking to scalp, ensured a wider customer based had access, and provided a very modest reward for the people who showed up earliest (some people camped out since 2am!).This kind of customer-focused behavior totally justifies the mild increase over MSRP. Everyone won in this transaction.I will make it a point to shop here again and play there in the future.Plus the box I bought had the card I really wanted for my deck, so they get brownie points :P.

Third Eye is amazing. Its got something for everyone. My daughter favorite is the big plush D20 she can roll around. Its more then just a board game and comic book store. We stop in every time we are in the are. The staff is always super friendly and knowledgeable. They also will get you a mask if you forgot one at home. Amazing place, HIGHLY recommend to everyone!

Great prices and great product. Awesome atmosphere and knowledgeable employees. On the card side they can be a little tough to communicate with but outside of that 10/10

This is the most insane hobby shop I have ever been to in my life. Apart from games/comics they have a really wicked selection of vinyl (and I mean its an impressive catalogue, better that the record shops local to me). It was like they squirted geek pheromones into the air - We couldnt help but splurge. Wish we lived closer, will be coming back!

Review №15

This is a tricky review to write. I love third eye games. The selection is awesome, the people are nice, welcoming and knowledgeable. I just wish the prices could be more competitive; Nerd stuff is expensive! Unfortunately for brick and mortar, they cant. Knowing this however, I still return regularly. Places like this are a dying breed and without charging MSRP they cant make it. Next time your here, talk to someone, join a game, make it an experience and feel better paying a couple of bucks more than you know you can get it on Amazon.This goes for any small business BTW...

I seriously love this place. The staff are so kind and knowledgeable. Greeting you right as you walk in and coming over to help almost immediately. I only had a few ideas of the general types of games I wanted and was led through the store given synopses of games. If they didn’t know the game, they quickly ran over to look it up. Great rewards system and they were very friendly about COVID protocols. Love you guys.

Review №20

This place has a bit of everything! Everyone is super friendly. There are easy rewards for repeat shoppers. Unless you are looking for something super specific like a really large plastic deck box for sleeved legacy MTG or a super specific LOTR model, they probably have it here.

Third Eye Games and Third Eye Comics is my favorite game and comics store. Their selection is huge and they almost everywhere you can think of. If Third eye games doesnt have it, it probably isnt worth your time. Third Eyes selection is constantly changing and being updated to keep up with their customers wants and needs. They also keep up with new releases of games.

Review №29

This game store is very cool. The employees were VERY nice and helpful. They had so much stuff from board games to RPG supplies to miniatures. We could have stayed there all day. The board games were in alphabetical order which is nice of you already know what you want. If you are looking for a particular type of game you should just ask the employees for their opinion. Overall, we will definitely be back.

Every time i enter, Im immediately greeted by the friendly staff. Has a positive and energetic atmosphere for all hobbiests. There are two stores for this one location, both are located in the same complex. The games side (warhammer, Tcg, board games, other model/miniatures, dnd/table top rpg, and paints) and then there is the comic side (Funko pop, manga, comics, and collectibles such as posters, dolls, and more). The prices are standard, and availability in store is hit or miss, but they are always willing to order the items you seek if available from their suppliers. The reward program is nice that you can get items or discounts for shopping with them (not many other hobby stores in the area offer this). Park in the rear parking lot for easier access to the stores and departures. The one thing that I find mildly disappointing is the manga selection hardly has volume 1.

I lived in Annapolis, MD roughly 2 years ago & my husband & I loved going to Third Eye Comics & Third Eye Games. During our time living in Annapolis we went maybe twice due to the fact we did not live her for a very long while. We came back through Annapolis & the gentleman who helped us before remembered us! They have the absolute best customer service & the coolest stuff! The staff is very knowledgeable & gave us great recommendations of new games to try based on our taste in games that we had previously purchased!

Staff and community is 110% hands down the absolute best. I’m not a very social person and I rarely leave the house but everyone there is so friendly and welcoming. The events they hold are so fun as well so if you’ve never been there before, I highly recommend checking the place out.

Third Eye Games is without a doubt the best game shop in Annapolis as well as for those on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Their selection includes the best and most popular games past and present, any expansion you could imagine for said games and the knowledge to give you the best buying experience possible. The customer service is absolutely amazing; you never feel out of the loop or patronized. The storefront is well organized and clean and the selection of events available is undoubtedly the best Ive found in Maryland. Im happy to say this is the pinnacle of tabletop gaming in Maryland.

I go at least once a week for dungeons and dragons adventurers league. Absolutely awesome place, decent prices, super welcoming atmosphere, great staff. Id like to say that I came to my first Dungeons and dragons meeting as a girl with zero experience, never felt ostracized for any of it. They showed me the ropes, now I do all my game shopping there. Loyal customer here. Third eye or die!

Review №77

Super clean and organized. The staff are super helpful and this would be a great place for the first time gamer to learn new games and to introduce their family to the great world of boardgames. My only complaint is organizing the games by alphabetical order, it makes it extremely difficult to browse and drop money on games that i hadnt already planned to buy. I would suggest new releases and then organize by genre.

A wonderful local game store. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and there has never been a question that they couldnt answer. I love the fact that they have open games and are more than happy for you to play a game before purchasing it. As with all brick and mortar stores, their prices are higher than some internet sales, but here you truly get what you pay for.

Place is great! Staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. The schedule is full of game nights, demos, leagues, tournaments, you name it. And lastly, the game room is huge! About a dozen huge tables for card and board games, plus 6 or so more for wargaming. Best place in the Annapolis area hands down for all your gaming needs. Oh and theyve got a huge comic store just a couple doors down too :)

Awesome store! Have the comic store on one side of the plaza and then the games store on the other. Have a ton of tabletop games and trading card games. We arrived about 10 mins before closing time but, the employees were happy to make suggestions and have a awesome nerdy conversation. I was happy to take some new games home to PA. If we are ever back in Maryland will stop by and purchase again.

I went there for my first time today. Very friendly staff. They make you feel welcomed the moment you walk in. Special shout out to staff member Matt. He helped me find All Might funko pop which I been hunting since I started collecting. It really made my day and definitely plan to come back and bring my friends.

Review №92

One thing I like about this place is that they have a game room, where they have extra copies of some of the games/products that they sell, so that you can see whats inside the box (and play it) before you buy it. The staff is nice. I went in once looking for a slightly obscure game (which they sadly didnt have), but the staff asked me what it was like and made some good suggestions of other similar games to try. They have tons of stuff for the MTG and DnD fans. I visit Third Eye Games every time Im in the area to see if they have any cool new games (and, of course, I stop by Third Eye Comics - right next door).

I figured I would just pile on to the already plentiful amount of 5 star reviews for this wonderful store.Events are kept up to date on all their social media, youd be surprised how many stereotypically geeky stores are atrocious at keep their websites and event calendars up to date.Tournaments and release events always have fair prize distribution.And they very often have amazing 20% sales on everything. 40k, boardgames, paint, RPG books, all of it. Which is basically unheard of in brick and mortar game stores.I live about 40-55 minutes away. Its worth the drive every time.
