I visited for the first time the other day! It was really nice, clean, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They have a wide selection of product, they have computer kiosks that have their full library. The spot is spacious and it has a second room where I saw people playing super smash bros and mtg. I love all the Pokémon stuff they have. Can't wait to go back again. read more

My family and I stopped by today after Brunch and this store is awesome! the staff were friendly! It was super busy and they also have an area in the back to play cards with others! Super cool! They had sooooo many options in here! So many cool things. The pricing is also very reasonable! Whenever we are back in the area we will return! I love the ambiance in here and there is such an amazing selection! read more

We learned about Amazing Discoveries at the Festival of Books. They have a great selection of Pokemon cards! We went with my 7 year old son and he had a blast sifting through boxes of pokemon cards. The staff were so sweet and kind. They gave us all kind of complimentary gifts and it really touched my heart, especially now a days when all you hear is negative news. Hector is the best!!!!!! read more

Honest about market value % payed when selling. Honest trading/great service. Great trading advice.

I had a recent online experience that was stellar! Ordered a game from a friend and had an easy time interfacing with Flo to pick up my item locally. I have also been in the store as well and it is always a pleasant experience. Friendly, knowledgeable service, good product selection and value ( games galore and disc golf!) I love this local establishment and definitely recommend for your gaming/ disc golf needs. They also have snacks/ drinks available for purchase and host gaming events! It's a one stop shop! read more

I have been to and purchased from Amazing Discoveries a few times now and have grown to not be very fond of the place. Yes they have a ton of product but it is certainly more expensive than other game stores I have been to in town. Customer service is so hit and miss, one time the employee could be nice and helpful and the next time a different employee could be very rude and just a straight up A**hole. I have heard from friends that they have also had bad experiences with customer service and will only shop here for singles and make the orders online to try and avoid dealing with the employees as much as possible. Most of my interactions with this place have been negative. Great if you are looking for individual cards but the customer service absolutely needs work and sealed product prices are a little too high, I would definitely recommend looking elsewhere. read more

Got a glimpse of their prices and dipped. Insanely above MSRP for pokemon cards. Just buy singles online or wait for restocks.

Expected more from decent reviews but it's just a scalpers shop. Saw a bunch of stuff well over double the going market rate. Don't support scalpers Went down the street to Finders Keepers and found pretty much every card they had displayed for 50-75% cheaper. read more

This is the place in town to catch a Magic league on a Friday night. Excellent card game selections. Nice variety of strategy board games and the venue was organized with a friendly staff. Could be your favorite local area game store. read more

Great selection of Disc Golf Disc's that keeps growing every time I visit. Bags, towels, lights, T-shirts, carts, and baskets. Great place to check out! read more

We were in the mood to do a puzzle so we called Amazing Discoveries. They gave us a brief rundown of what they had in stock. We asked them their COVID protocol and headed over. They don't let more than 6 people in the store at one time. Parking and entry is in the back due to roadwork and construction on Broadway. They have a table with sanitizer in the entry hallway as well. The staff kindly directed us to the puzzle shelf when we arrive. The store is super clean and spread out. Staff are friendly. We were in and out in less than ten minutes. We'd definitely come back again! They do have online ordering but it does not appear that the in-store inventory matches what they have online, so if you're looking for something specific, call first! read more

Amazing Discoveries is great! The new location is much roomier and feels a lot more fresh. The staff is always helpful and informative. They've been expanding their inventory and we always find something we like there - from Magic cards, to disc golf stuff, to board games. read more

I frequently visit Amazing Discoveries in Gilbert for all of my MTG and Pokémon needs so I figured I had to check out the Tucson location while in town for the day. When I first entered the staff were so welcoming and friendly and helped me find everything I was looking for. They are so well stocked and have a plethora of items for all of your gaming needs. Plus as an added bonus they have disc golf stuff too! I ended up picking up some Pokémon cards while there, the computers they have set up in the back are so convenient for you to see their store stock and select the cards you're looking for. They also have plenty of tables and space for you to hang out and play with friends. Definitely will be back the next time I visit Tucson! read more

So many fun cards and things to see and explored. Patient and knowledgeable staff. Really late awesome hours... and a Yelp check in freebie

Awesome place and great people! The owners are stepping up to the plate for the disc golf community which is greatly appreciated!!

I've taken my 12 yr old cousin here several times because he plays Pokemon TCG. The staff is always welcoming, knowledgable, and overall good feel to the store. He's also participated in a few tournaments and they are run smoothly. It's a specialty game store with a great selection of board games and other card games too. I had played a game at Maker's House called Power Grid and the store was able to special order it for me. They also have a game library, so you can play games without buying them right away. One game I was considering buying was Ascension. It's a deck building game and there were other people in the store that new how to play and wanted to help teach. Definitely a positive, welcoming environment for new gamers like myself and the advanced gamers alike. Very fun. Would definitely come back, even just to hang out. :) read more

Amazing Discoveries - Owner, Dusty Ochoa, in the middle of a remodel in the miniatures room. - Tabletop Games Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I've been at their previous location on broadway and it was small and clunky it never felt right but since they moved stores and locations it is awesome how they have the store set up and I went in to buy some Pokémon tcg decks not really knowing anything and a gentleman came and helped me with everything and didn't try to over sell me on anything will be returning 10/10 read more

Stopped by for the first time and to my surprise they had lots of DnD stuff. So many dice! So many minis! They have miniatures painted/unpainted, pretty cool. If you're starting to get into Dungeons and Dragons, this place has a good selection. read more

Ever since they moved to their new location it has just smelled so bad like a busted sewer pipe or they haven't changed the mop water in months. read more

Visited from out of town and found some really awesome puzzles. Friendly staff and ever in the city, would visit again. Love to support small business and this one is GREAT! read more

I went with my family to try and find a gift for my cousin's baby's mama's stepson who's into D&D and WoW and was immediately hit with the stankyest smell. It smelled like used wet socks mixed with urine. It gave me the biggest headache. I didn't find anything and wasn't offered any help. I'm glad I found this place though. I use it as a suggestion when coworkers ask for a 'cool' place to get gifts for their children LOL read more

Incredibly rude dismissive staff. Prepaid for an online order that ended up being incomplete. Still unclear whether the order shortage was malfeasance or just gross negligence. When I made the staff aware of the disconnect they were clearly annoyed I was requesting rectification. Instead of immediately apologizing and offering a refund they insisted I take store credit as a form of compensation for the product they falsely advertised and charged me for. When I insisted on a refund they grew even more disgruntled and eventually gave me my money back after I made it clear store credit would be unacceptable. I will no longer be supporting this organization with my business as this is the final straw. I have a litany of issues and bad experiences them. read more

Meets nearly all my game needs, comparable prices to Amazon, friendly knowledgeable staff. Happy to special order items they don't carry, seem to be particularly centered around magic and other deck-based games, including special events and tournaments, long tables in the back for casual game play, too! read more

Amazing Discoveries ("Amazing Disco" to its friends) is a great game store. They've embraced the idea that a local store can't compete with Amazon and online retailers on price, but instead must become the center of a community. They have a large and generally comfortable play area (a few chairs are in bad condition, but that's to be expected with the volume of people they host) and they host events frequently for card games, miniatures games, and other games. The staff are friendly and approachable - they have different areas of expertise, so the person you find may not always be able to answer your question, but they'll definitely know who on the staff to ask. The big draw here is their events. They publish a reliable calendar of events on their website, so it's very easy to answer the question that always comes up with games - "how do I find someone to play with?" Also making events better are the wall murals, the display of prints by a local fantasy artist, and the availability of water, soft drinks, and snacks. Some of their infrastructure could use a little investment - those chairs again! - but it's almost always easy to find a place to play whatever you've come to play. Amazing Disco is a great example of the Friendly Local Game Store and I'm glad it's here. read more

I got to say Amazing Discoveries is one of my favorite places in tucson. I been going here with my friends for the past few years I believe. Honestly have not been disappointed once as it cause of this place that I got to relive my childhood and get back into Yugioh again. Funny enough me and my friends are getting some of our other crew in as well. Meaning I shall be going back more :) read more

3 stars is perfectly befitting. Nothing special, yet nothing to really complain about too badly. Their prices are comparable to any other store or internet venue. The place has inconvenient parking in the front, but more parking in the rear. Nice big open tournament / play area, lot's of cards to choose from. When you are selling to them, they give you about half value, which everyone believes is fair I guess. I think you could make more selling on eBay, but if you need it right away I guess this is the only answer. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable, but the lines are long - and even when the lines aren't long, there is still a hefty wait to get helped. This is due to the nature of the business - the help has to meander through collections of cards whether the customer is there to purchase or to sell, so this takes quite some time. So like I said, there is really nothing to rave about here - nor is there a reason not to go. It just exists. read more

This review is more about trust than anything else. I had never been in this store before but I took a look. It was massively busy. I was inquiring about MTG packs on sale and all their standard was 6/$20 and that's pretty good. I wanted 6 packs of Eldrich moon. Eldrich moon has been proven to be 100% searchable but I love the set. I purchased 2 booster boxes and confirmed they are searchable. When I watched him pull the 6 packs out of an open box, I notice it was only 2 arts. When I cracked the 6 packs, I got 3 non-flip mythics and 2 foil rares. This place to me seems honest. Hope to do more business with them. read more

This place is AMAZING! By far the best game store in Tucson!! The staff are super helpful and go out of their way to help you feel welcome. They have tons of games in stock to browse and lots of tables for playing card games and miniatures, along with some super sweet terrain. The staff helped my kids hone their Pokemon decks and play their first junior tournament. The other players were amazingly nice and after playing a match, gave my kids advice on what cards to add to their deck to make it better, and even gave them some free cards to fill out their decks. At the end of the day, all the kids couldn't wait to go back again because they had such a great time. read more

Great speciality store. Also a great selection of board games and other card games. The staff is friendly and knowledgable. read more

So we get to the store and the tell us we need to put a mask on our one year old. And if we don't our toddler is not aloud in the store. So get in there and the guy is talking about how his nephew is 2. How he can keep his mask on. And calling it bad parenting if you can't keep a mask on your small kids. If you not a parent don't put out your opinions when you don't know what it's like. Will never be going back there. read more

After successfully purchasing from them online, I placed a new order the other day. After a few days I received an email saying "CANCELLATION, FRAUD: BILLING ADDRESS SHIPPING ADDRESS MISMATCH" This is very odd considering I already used them before. After seeing the cards I ordered were now listed at 5 dollars from 50 cents it all made sense. I would have preferred an email saying sorry we actually want more money for the cards. Hire someone who can keep up with prices instead of canceling successfully made purchases and sending a BS response. read more

Husband called in this morning to sell his cards. The failed to tell him that Friday's were not the best to do any trade ins. We wasted our time going there. When we got there the guy at the trade in counter was pretty rude. We will not be supporting this business or going back. read more

In an industry being overtaken by online retailers consistently offering 30-40% off, Amazing Discoveries leaves me feeling indifferent towards them. If I really want a product today, and am willing to pay at least 30% more to have it, and can't find it at Isle of Games, then I will shop at Amazing Discoveries. As another reviewer mentioned, there's just nothing particularly special about this store, but also nothing to specifically complain about either. They are primarily a table-top gaming store that focuses on trading card games like Magic the Gathering and Pokémon, but also have a modest board game and wargaming selection, too. And they do it all fairly well. But they do not do anything better than another one of the 8 game stores in Tucson can do. The store used to have an odor problem caused by gamer funk and cleanliness issues, but since they remodeled, I haven't noticed the pervasive smell any more when I walk in. I hope management maintains the new levels of cleanliness. Stores like Isle of Games and Tucson Games & Gadgets really forced some of these older stores to up their game (so to speak). The new remodel looks great and is a step in the right direction. It feels much more welcoming and open when you walk in. The employees are polite and knowledgeable about trading card games, but if you have a question about board games, then Amazing Discoveries has the same problem as Tucson Games & Gadgets - there is no one who works there that knows anything about board games. However, the customer service is a few steps above Tucson Games & Gadgets. In summary, good store that will especially appeal to the trading card gamer, but may not offer anything that another store doesn't already do better. They are working on improving their store, and I've seen the improvements. Hopefully this store makes itself relevant again after these new games stores have been edging it out. read more

Are you looking for some amazing discoveries? Well this is the place to go! Amazing Discoveries has countless boxes in the back of the store to look through. You can literally spend hours sorting through some awesome finds at great prices! They are true to honor their prices .10c for commons / .25 c for uncommons. They'll continue to get my loyalty unlike some of the other card stores in town. read more

The store's focus is definitely magic and other CCG. It have a decent selection of board games, miniature, RPG, and a small selection of comics. I can't speak too much to the CCG side of things at the store as I am primarily a board gamer and I was there during the day. They certainly have plenty of space to play. Surprisingly, there is a decent selection of children/educational board games (HABA) as well. read more

Just awesome. Very impressed with their selection and variety of heroclix and other games. Very happy. 5 stars.

My girlfriend and I moved to Tucson last August and we decided that AD was the store we would make our LGS. Since we started playing at AD we have been exposed to an array of competitive players, formats, and game types. We have tried unique board games, multiple TCG formats, and had our highs/lows. While we are never really in the top we are still treated well, for the most part, by everyone we play against. The staff is quick and attentive. Everyone is good at their job, friendly, and helps maintain a competitive/professional atmosphere. The new changes the store has made are great. New display cases, a bigger card bank, moving the TV, and expanding their selection were just the beginning of the changes they have made. The improvements to the table-top room are really nice. Making the room quieter and comfortable was a great move. The new hallway in the back is looking great, too! We play modern, standard constructed, limited, and commander mostly and we are able to do all of those at AD. They also do some great promotions ;) read more

This store is not just a place for buying gaming materials and needs; it is also a very interactive hangout for gamers and artists. The front area includes every kind of Magic game and otherwise, and beyond that is a huge room where people gather to play against each other. There is amazing artwork on the walls from the people who game there. It seems like a nice safe and friendly hangout for people of all ages. read more

Best shop in town for Magic: the Gathering. Also good for other collectible card games like WoW and Pokemon. Good selection of miniatures and comic books as well. read more

Been here several times to meet with friends hosting games. The staff is friendly and the store front is neat. They keep their back room open for folks to host and run games. I have not yet been in their newly remodeled backroom, but the pictures look nice! read more
