This an amazing store, with a wide selection of product. The staff is very interactive and knowledgeable. Ive interacted with Jake quite a bit, and hes usually interested in what youre buying, and can hold a good conversation about it. They offer good trade-in value (currently offer 70% of value if you trade in your MTG singles for their singles), and their prices are quite reasonable!

This location is a fantastic game and hobby store to shop and play at. The entire staff is very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The shop is very organized and clean. Theres a wide variety of games and player communities such as Warhammer Flames of War, Dungeons and Dragons, Magic: The Gathereing and so many other games. Every player Ive dealt with has been super friendly, fun and welcoming. They have an amazing in-store selection when it comes to buying used cards, new cards, models, supplies for your models, board games, etc. This is the place to play and shop if youre interested in these sorts of things.

Bought a damaged deck box and the guy wouldn’t let me return it because the packaging was slightly torn (which he also tore trying to open it himself.) Honestly I’ve never had anything but issues here and their prices arent great.

I thought that this was a well organized and well stocked store. Their offering of card sleeves was good. Play space appeared more than adequate.The service really stood out to me. I asked about a hard to find game that Ive been chasing around the midwest. The employee that approached me to help had never heard of it, but he searched their inventory, the distributor site, and called a nearby competitor to help me find a copy. I would call that above and beyond. Well deservi g of 5 stars in my book.

More than helpful, but very busy. You can tell that they enjoy what they do. As a new player, they went above and beyond to help me. The customers were just as helpful. It has been a good experience every time I go in the store. Keep in mind that the store can get very busy.

I finally found an amazing nerd store. Just what I was looking for. My first words after entering the store I mustve died and gone to heaven Im so excited I found this place. Special thanks to the girl working the counter when I was there SO SORRY I CANT REMEMBER YOUR NAME (I suck with names) but you were so nice and helpful. I hope to be joining in on some Magic tournaments and D&D games real soon ^.^

Great store. The staff is friendly, helpful, and not at all pushy. They feature a large variety of games, catering the gamut of board gamers, casual gamers, Magic players, role players, and miniature gamers. As good of prices as youll find from a friendly local game store.

Ive been into this location a few times and loved it! The staff I talked with were really nice, the place was clean, and it had a good selection of games of a variety of types. There is a big area for gaming, and my husband I are going over there for International Tabletop Day on April 11th. There was an event happening the last time I was there, and there were many people participating as well as other customers coming into the store. This is a great place for your gaming needs!

A nice place to game. The employees wont breath down your neck just to make a sale, and they have a great selection. No doubt the best in the area.

Review №45

Far too specialized. They dont even seem to have a chess board or traditional board games. We were not greeted by anyone during our 20 minute visit. I even stood by the counter waiting to ask if they carried what I was looking for. I ended up going to the board game barrister. They were very helpful and I had no issues finding what I was looking for.

Review №52

If youre a casual magic player stay away. Theres a group of regulars here who are hard core magic afficionados. Normally this wouldnt be a bad thing but they seem to enjoy preying on newcomers. I played here a handful of times and cant say I had fun once. On top of this one of these regulars outright knowingly ripped me off in a trade as his buddies watched. I understand its your responsibility to know what your cards are worth but on top of the cliches and uninviting atmosphere I wish I could give 0 stars. Definitely wont be returning to give them business. Check out board game barrister down the street. WAY MORE FRIENDLY.

Third week attending Emilys Board Game Demonstration and had a blast as always. Quite a few different games available to try out for free on Monday nights as well. Only complaint is not quite as much of a selection as another local game store but other benefits make up for that. See you again soon!

It makes me sad to give this shop this rating. This used to be my favorite shop. Matt was such a friendly and helpful guy. However, since hes left, the atmosphere of the shop has become cold and uninviting. The guy who is usually in charge of the shop doesnt want to help and hes occasionally rude. I really miss Matt. Ive since found a new shop to play at.

Ive been to a lot of game stores in the area, this is my preferred one for miniatures and paintings. They have a great selection of board games but they excel at their table top RPG offerings. There is a plethora of dice and a wall of miniatures. They also carry MSP paints which have become my go to. I havent interacted much with staff as I usually know what Im wanting but they seem friendly and polite.

I was just in this store. I am trying to build a magic deck and when I walked in I told the man behind the counter and his response was theyre in the case, not really in any order After 15 min of walking around not finding what I was looking for the guy was more concerned about chatting on Facebook (I was the only one in the store and could hear the chat sound as he was typing) then helping me. NOT helpful at all!

Games Universe (Franklin) is a hobby game shop. (Hobby games are not typically found in places like Target or Wal Mart.) They carry many board and card games as well as a plethora of CCG’s. (They sell CCG singles’ too.) There is a play area in the center of the store where tournaments are held. When not in use for a tournament the area can be used for players of any games. Finally, they carry a very wide variety of dice that can be purchased individually or in bulk. The staff is friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Parking is easy and the store is handicap accessible.

I used to play AD&D 2nd edition and then got away from the game for a while. I went into the Franklin Game Universe with my daughter (it was her idea to stop in there) and noticed a group playing the D&D 5th Edition which sounded a lot like 2nd edition. I spoke with store employee Rob who was very helpful and got me, and my daughter, excited to play. We are now regular gamers on Tuesday and Wednesday nights!
