| - I would classify this store as a special hidden gem located underground in the Bloor-Cumberland Terrace area, away from civilization. The name of their store perfectly matches the type of business they are because they do have a variety of all types of games and hobbies. From board games, cards, jigsaw puzzles, science kits, crafts, and toys, you'll find a lot of specialty items here. Displayed by the entrance area, they carry their latest promotional toys, which is currently Star Wars and a few months ago, they were also promoting minion toys.
I was iust here 3 days ago to purchase our very own deck of Ammonia cards (a currently popular word game) and I was impressed with how everything in this store is nicely organized by category. In the same aisle where I got the Ammonia game, were other word games and I guess they set it up this way to entice you to buy more, which worked for my case, because I couldn't resist buying the Story Cubes game, which was within close range of Ammonia, so I unexpectedly left the store with 2 games instead of one.
The staff didn't approach me to see if I needed any help, but I think that's only because they respect the customer's space to browse freely without getting pressured. When I went to pay for my items, the lady I dealt with seemed nice and friendly so I'm sure if you approached them for help or with questions, they would be more than happy to assist you.
The only con I have about this store is that everything here seems a bit pricey. In total, I paid $45 approximately for Ammonia and the Story Cubes, which are pocket sized games so I can only imagine how much the bigger games cost. My ideal 5-star game store would be a place that carries a good variety of games but with more reasonable prices. On the whole though, I will return to this place again for convenience sake since it's close to my workplace.
