Look. It's Humboldt County. I didn't expect a legitimate game store and this place delivered. I was…read moreimpressed by the selection, offering board games from the classics to the traditional to the innovative. The store is in a wooden structure that looks like it should hold power tools, but never judge a book by its cover (or a game). We have bought several birthday and Christmas gifts here and the staff are some of the most knowledgeable about board games of varying types. We have also been introduced to new games here, and the prices are competitive with other game stores across the country. Instead of jumping on Amazon and enriching Jeff Bezos and his union busting ways, drop in to NCR and support local games stores. Also, Jesus Christ is Lord! Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff who offer a lot of help and advice without being condescending.read more

This fly-by-night card store sold me products on their website that were paid in full. I drove over…read more100 miles (gas, time, and wear on my vehicle) to pick up my order in person on Monday only to find an illegibly scribbled note taped to the door saying they were closed. I emailed and called. Was told in an email reply later that day that they were short staffed, but how was I to know? Their website clearly states open until 3 on Mondays. I also had noted in the 'comments' section of my online order that I'd pick up my order on Monday. I reluctantly rescheduled to make the trek again on Thursday. Tuesday passed. Then shortly after noon on Wednesday I received and email saying they were unable to fulfill half of my bought and paid for order. I immediately canceled the remaining items. Currently awaiting full refund. Trust broken. Flaky business practices noted. Lack of responsibility and accountability to customers. Website/inventory control nonexistent. Shame. What a total waste of a potential customer's goodwill, time and money. Dude probably sold my bought and paid for items to his pals for more money. Why even post rare items online if you cannot honor the sale? Typical slacker run business. Avoid Northern Realms, it's just a headache!

I tried to go there twice within the listed store hours and both times they were closed.read more

One time one of my kids knocked over a row of toys and was starting to panic while I was on the other side of the store and the people working were suuuuper kind and helped him feel good about himself while we picked up. That was huge for him. They carry some stuff made locally which is awesome. The prices are the same or better than Amazon, even on LEGO.

This toy store caters ages of 4 mos and up. A wonderful selection of wooden toys to choose from. Many of the toys are Eco friendly and made from recycled materials. There is a selection of books as well as stuffed animals. There are clothes available too. Super cute store but super expensive. It was a little to "ritz" for me. I wasnt down to drop $30 on a onzie. Check out the attached photos. I hope it helps. Stop in if your near by. 4 stars instead of 5 because I was constantly followed. Maybe they thought I was going to steal?
