I really like their large touch screen to check their inventory on singles especially for Lorcana as not many stores have singles and it's much easier to find that digging through a binder or box. However, since lots of people use it since it is the only one, there can be a wait. We have bought from them several times and never had a bad experience. The staff here are friendly and informative. The space is organized and well kept, as well as a handful of regulars or TCG players at tables playing. They keep prices pretty fair even on some rarer cards and it's nice to support local stores rather than dealing with the hassle of online card shopping. They also have better stock than other card shops as my boyfriend was looking for specific TCGs and no one else had them until we stopped by here!

As a long time board game and TCG geek, I finally took the time to check out, Next Level: The…read moreGamers Den in Graham after driving by for a few years. This is a nice game store with a ton of board games, card games, tabletop accessories, and other various geek and gaming wares. They also feature several TVs with gaming systems that I believe you rent by the hour. The store is clean and well organized and the staff is attentive. They are however, not at all friendly or generally welcoming. Additionally, there are no prices posted on any products which is a strange practice. With that said, they do offer a loyalty program that earns points towards free goodies or "chair time" with the video games. They also feature a 24/7 private access system which I am not really familiar with, but is widely advertised in the shop. The shop gets kudos for being clean and in a nice location! Pricing would be nice though and the gents behind the counter are never anything close to welcoming or friendly.

John, the co-owner also sells drills. My gaming buddy came with me shot the breeze with John to find he had a shared love of a wide selection of games. So we highly recommend for statue and craft needs as well as games. They have parking, a bathroom, and a big shop. They are in the popular alleyway behind South Tacoma, in the old bank at the corner. I would post a photo of John but I forgot to ask his permission - maybe someone else can take his photo and get his permission. Knows a ton.

They do have One Piece, Magic and Pokemon cards as well as TCGs as well. Their calendar is also stacked with all sorts of different TCG events. The staff here are knowledgeable and professional. They do offer snacks, cup noodles, and a variety of beverages to enjoy while you are there. In addition, they have dice, mats, deck boxes, sleeves, and other TCG accessories that you may need. The prices here are very fair and they also buy cards for a fair deal too. The set up here is nice and they have plenty of room to browse and walk around, they have several long tables with chairs to accommodate those who want to play or host events. Overall a great TCG store in Tacoma and definitely one to check out if you're into Magic, Pokemon, One Piece or others!

This of course led my husband and I through a sea of nostalgia and the kids watching endless "card pull" videos. This was our first time at Metro, and my 6 year old son was lead by destiny to find the coveted "God pack" or golden Charizard (his words, not mine). While the kids "ohhh'd and ahhh'd" over the cards and played their hand at the claw machines - I asked the guy working for the info on the different packs. He was so patient and sweet to my 5 year old daughter who was a tad too energetic and excited, and the boys who acted as if we were looking at the answer to world peace through a glass case. He was full of knowledge, answered questions about uncommon Pokemon, and let my son pick out which of the Pokemon boxes he felt was "lucky". In a time where my kid has to compete with adults to even get the chance for a Pokemon machine to release a few items... always leaving empty handed because they emptied it out as he stood behind them in line... you made my kids day. Thank you Conner, for making our first trip there so special.
