This place is AWESOME!!…read more Knight Watch may be on the smaller side but holy wow they have a lot going on. Half of the main room is board games and accessories for sale, and the other is massive tabletop space to play said games. Every seat was packed when I went, about 8pm on a Tuesday, and the energy was infectious. It was noisy with excited customers playing games together and staff members were dressed like they were at the Renaissance Faire. I saw at least three private rooms to rent out for gaming, and I was surprised to learn that they also have a scullery?? The food looked and smelled AMAZING. I will note that there were not as many cards as I'd hoped, but that doesn't negate everything this place has going for it. I didn't get to stay for long but I'll definitely be bringing along some friends for game night next time!

I worked here for several months, and my experience ended in a way that I feel reflects poorly on…read moremanagement. To be fair, I was on my phone during a slow period, and I understand that management has the right to address that. I accept responsibility for it and would have been willing to have a professional conversation about my mistake. Instead, the situation became personal. During the discussion, I mentioned that I was stressed about finances, including a roughly $3,000 car repair, which was why I was on my phone. As someone making $12 an hour, that is a significant financial burden. Rather than acknowledging that, I was essentially told that my stress didn't matter because the owner has much larger financial responsibilities, including business debt and payroll expenses. I understand that running a business is stressful. However, stress is not a competition. Just because an owner has larger expenses does not mean an employee's financial struggles are insignificant. For someone earning $12 an hour, a major unexpected expense can be devastating. What bothered me most was being told to "grow up" and hearing comments along the lines of, "We'll see how you feel financially when I start cutting your hours and you see it in your paycheck." That felt less like coaching and more like a threat. Employees should be able to make mistakes, receive correction, and move forward without being belittled or having their financial concerns mocked. My issue was never being held accountable for being on my phone. My issue was the lack of professionalism, empathy, and respect shown during that conversation. I believe employees deserve to be treated with dignity, regardless of their position or income level. I should also add I have a literal broken ankle currently, and was still opening/closing and performing daily duties. This is how I was treated.

Very interesting shop right next to a bookstore I was visiting. It had an excellent selection of…read morecomics, fantasy/science fiction books, games and collectibles.

I never felt like they were over reaching but they definitely pay attention to what you are asking or want. The choices in hobbies AND options for each hobby are terrific and massive. Of course, we can't have that kind of discussion without bringing up the fact that they have a rewards program and an excellent one at that! Really, you're getting more than what you pay for.

Weird vibes, kinda felt as if my girlfriend and I weren't really welcome? We both had mentioned we…read morewere brand-new to the hobby of miniature painting but that didn't really lead into any help and had me asking more follow up questions whenever I was inquring about washes/wash mediums. Basically it just wasn't a great experience and it was super dark and kinda felt dusty in there. I think in a world full of shops, you should do your best to really be kind to new players. We won't be going back to heroes retreat. Pricing was probably slightly higher than it should be just to add-on. I did manage to snag a decent amount of little Ossiarch Bonereaper guys for literally free (not entirely sure why something to do with them supposedly retiring soon? It was extremely nice! but doesn't save the experience.)

I have absolutely no clue what Warhammer is or anything about figure painting or board game. So I…read morewas at the blood donation center next door, doing good deed:3, and when I finished I decided to stop by to take a look at what this store is about. The man in charge greeted me, and show me all around. Let me painted my first action figure, show me how to play a game of Warhammer, and taught me a lot about this game. I forgot his name but he has glasses and piercing and he's bad with name so am I. But overall great impression he was very nice and attentive, stop by here if you want to geek out on board game about alien and space marines.

This place is so neat!…read more Court of Gamers is absolutely packed with so many things to see and do. A dry erase board at the front by the register has a calendar of upcoming events to look forward to, and when you round the corner you'll see just how much this place has to offer. Board games and their accessories, plushies and candles, and several places to play D&D campaigns and other tabletop games fill the space in its entirety. It was so neat to see everyone there having a good time playing games together while perusing through all the neat stuff. I'd definitely like to return to support this shop! It looks like they had a sign-up sheet for D&D beginners, so I might see if I can join a campaign there sometime!

Even though the board game library wasn't very big, the games available had great options. There is a ton of interesting/vintage gear, but not too much in the way of new board games for sale. Also the play area is typical of a game shop and definitely sufficient but not up to the new standard set for San Antonio at Knight Watch Games. Bottom Line: I'd be back for a welcoming gaming environment and a small but might game library.

This place is SO COOL!!…read more My fiancé and I love stopping by regularly to see what's new in store. The guys here are the absolute coolest and have been so helpful, and the amount of awesome merch crammed into this place is INSANE. From board games and their accessories to giant superhero statues, they have it all. We've purchased almost all of our comic books here, several Pokémon and One Piece cards/packs, plushies, and a few figures from them. Their layaway plan is super reasonable and made it possible for us to bring home one of our largest figures, J. Scott Campbell's Alice, to date. I HIGHLY recommend this place if you haven't already visited. This place is an experience, and I'd be absolutely shocked if you can't find what you're looking for.
