Update time. They have moved locations and are now next to Church and State on 4th South in downtown SLC. It is a larger space and they now have a coffee shop! It is a cool place to just hang out and meet other people. Bring your favorite game (I don't like Magic but I love Settlers of Catan), get some coffee, and have fun with other like minded people. Parking is also easier at this new location, but you do need to know the trick. Parking is in the back and you need to enter from 300 east near the Church and State building. Then you can conveniently use the back door to enter Oasis games. read more

I went to sell my cards today and they low ballede so bad. Didn't even go through the he bulk of them just gave me an offer for 50 bucks for a prismatic new binder, box and over ,400 rares. Ill never go back there again. read more

One of the best game stores of all time! My fiance and I have been in multiple times to visit and partake in several purchases as well as sell a few items too! Oasis Games has a wide variety of games, but we specifically love to go and purchase Magic The Gathering cards. They seem to always have a consistently rotating amount of stock with cards ranging from the first series ever, all the way to the most recent release! They also offer a website for traded-in cards inventory that can be accessed from home, and you can pick up in person, or even access it with one of their available computers in the store! Most of their prices are reasonably close to MSRP, but where they really excel is in their sale value! They provide a fantastic store value percentage that is greater than every other game store I have ever been to. They also offer fun game nights and pre-release events (check their website for dates). Highly recommend Oasis Games for your next gaming purchase! read more

Oasis Games - Singles for days, if you're a collector or player this is the place that welcomes all! - Hobby Shops Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

Amazing experience for my grandson and me. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Great place to browse and buy.

Great selection. Nice people. Lots of games. They do internet sales. Decent prices. I was from out of town and was pleasantly surprised.

Nice people. I sold some cards here and their process was thorough and transparent. Great store. Kids spilled soda and they were very understanding. read more

Oasis Games - Hobby Shops Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

Purchased a card online and they cancelled my order 3 days later after it went up in price. They then reached out and asked if they could do anything to help after getting negative feedback and doubled down on claiming they wouldn't honor the sold price. Definitely avoid this shop as they value a quick buck over any customers. Judging from other reviews it sounds like they do this often and don't care about being a respectable business. read more

I recently placed an online order for MTG cards and I received an email confirmation and another email that payment was processed. The following day I received another email that my order was canceled and refunded. I went to their website and they had the *same cards* listed for a much higher price! Not cool that my confirmed order was canceled so the cards could be sold to someone else for more. read more

One of my very favorite places to go. Staff is amazing, always friendly, welcoming, and extraordinary customer service oriented. I always want to attend and always recommend to my friends. Besides being very family friendly oriented place, it's always a great environment to attend. I will always attend and will always recommend. read more

I don't know anything about this stuff but my son is way into it.Josh and his staff are super knowledgeable and can help you if your a beginner or a lifer.Glad this place is here looking out for my boy. read more

Regarding my comment about long waits in line, it's been quite a while that I've been coming here and it does not happen often anymore. It's a great game store with very helpful employees. And as far as Magic Singles, I have yet to find a better stocked store read more

Really friendly staff - I was asked to play a game of MTG upon entering the store "PAUPER?? You here for Pauper???" (I think they really wanted an extra player!), and when I said i didnt know how to play, the staff member introduced himself, shook my hand and broke off for a minute to go through basic MTG play. I didnt end up playing, but thanks to him, I am now probably going to start! They also have lots of expansions for tabletop games I have never seen and a really good selection. I am not from the area, but I will come back to this store next time I am in town and recommend others to do so as well! read more

The card shop itself is amazing, let's just start off with that. But we stood at the counter for over 10 minutes before one of the 3 employees acknowledged us. Like everywhere else, they had barely any Pokémon products in stock. Normally I look for sealed boxes but all they had left were single packs. I got 10 Steam Siege packs. Opening them, we noticed a few cards were out of order. I looked at the seals on all of them and none seemed to be resealed or ironed. But when I went to redeem the online codes for my PTCGO account, 2 of the 10 codes didn't work - they had already been redeemed by another account. So between some of the cards being physically out of order and then 20% of the online codes already redeemed, I'm convinced these packs I bought were tampered with. Wouldn't recommend this store for Pokémon cards. read more

Positives: Amazing location, lots of game space, very nice store atmosphere and coloring, a pretty nice collection of MTG singles and board games. Lots of different store events as well. Manager is really nice and knowledgeable. Negatives: Only some of the staff are friendly. A few of the front desk employees are rude, unhelpful, and sometimes just ignore people while on their phone. A lot of cards are overpriced and the conditions listed are not accurate with no refund options after receiving orders. This is the only game store I've been to that does random raffles to a very small selection of the player base for promos instead of giving out a promo to each person attending an event. Overall a great place to go and play board games and card games, but be careful about what you spend your money on there, and don't expect good deals or promos when playing commander. read more

I came here to buy a Pokémon pack for my son who is a Pokémon fanatic. We bought a "Chilling Reign" Pokemon pack. Little did we know the $4.00 pack was resealed! How do we know it's resealed you ask? Its card for ten free random online Pokémon cards said 2015, it was also really scratched up which showed it was not recently created by the Pokémon company. But everything else was fine. But don't recommend buying Pokémon cards there. read more

Wife and kids are in town for vacation. We thought about getting a new game to play, as I own about 400 games and review and do videos, but only brought a couple. When we went it, the place looked big and nice, but we were greeted rudely and my wife asked to leave. I said let's just look for a minute. The rude employee ended up following us and again asked, in what I can only say the least friendly way, can I help you. My wife again asked to leave and my daughter said "why is he following us?" We left after a few minutes, and we took our $$$ to a more welcoming store read more

Josh Wii, the owner, is one of the most friendly and personable people I've ever met. Every time I go in he's always friendly to both his staff and his customers. He loves what he does and he wants to make sure you have as much fun as he does. Not to mention the professional and efficient manner they run events and tournaments at their location. The environment is very friendly and welcoming. Not one bad thing I can say about the place other than the parking on busy days. But that's the hallmark of a great place. read more

I always have a great experience here! Employees are all knowledgeable and are happy to help you as best they can and provide well thought out recommendations to games you might like. For MtG and Pokémon they have a great selection of singles in store and they're on TCGPlayer as well. They also have some real old mtg packs if you wanna try your luck at some vintage packs :) highly recommend. Will definitely visit again read more

Wonderful employees, very nice and helpful. Wide variety of games from ttrpgs to board games and mtg.

Buy booster packs here at your own risk. They have a nice display case full of beautiful holographic cards, including the ultra rare rainbow and gold Pokemon cards, which they sell at mint condition market prices. I'll never be able to prove it due to pull rates not being disclosed by the manufacturer, but this leads me to believe they could be weighing out all their booster packs and opening the ones with the best chances of containing the ultra rare cards to sell at high prices. If they do it, that's their prerogative but they still charge more than boosters cost at target. At least there you are only contending with the possibility that other customers might be weighing or checking the packs somehow. That said, there is still a nice selection of board games and accessories, as well as a cafe. I've never had the chance to play games there, I only bought cards until I realized what *might* be going on. read more

It's a great place to pick up singles for Magic, Pokémon, and other TCGs, as well as a wide selection of board games. At one point I was visiting the store once or twice weekly for organized games and tournaments. However, I have decided to avoid the store because of its horrid smell due to its patrons. I am amazed at the lack of hygiene, as well as its enforcement. The scent is nothing short of putrid in the play area. Another reason why I'll take my business somewhere else when I can is because of the quality control of trading card singles. Either the staff is hoping that patrons will not notice, or they don't bother to verify the condition of the cards, but either way, YOU WILL NOT FIND NEAR MINT CARDS AT OASIS GAMES. read more

Horrible customer service. Went there once recently to play a game with a friend. We wanted to support the business by buying something at the food counter. The sales guy said it was closed and acted irritated that we asked to buy something (this was at lunch time), so we ordered delivery instead. I later asked a sales person at another counter about a game module I was thinking of buying. I saw it on Amazon for sale but wanted to buy it locally. He ignored me initially because he was on the phone talking to a friend, and then acted put out once I was able to get his attention. He said he'd never heard of it and that they'd have to order it, if he could find it in his system. He obviously didn't want to be bothered with it and wanted to get back to his phone call so I didn't ask for him to look it up. I went to blow my nose later because our food was spicy. The bathroom was closed for repair but I just quickly grabbed some tissue. An employee saw me and gave me a lecture about it on the sales floor, even though I explained it was just for some tissue. I then heard, over the shelving, that same employee and another employee complaining about stupid customers not reading signs. That employee later loudly announced to us across the sales floor that the bathroom would be open a little later but not to use it until then. It was all incredibly embarrassing and I was blown away by how rude everyone there was! I've honestly never had such bad customer service. I went to the manager and complained. I'm usually willing to give people a pass, since we all have our bad days, but every single person there was rude and seemed to have no customer service skills, except for the manager. I'll never go there again, even though I usually make it a point to support local businesses. Fortunately there's a game store close by in Sugarhouse, Game Night Games, where I've had a really good experience. The store there is nice with a good selection of games, and best of all the employees there are friendly and welcoming and they are happy to chat and answer questions. I'll definitely be supporting them for my gaming needs. read more

Josh and the boys at Oasis are great. They keep me updated with new products coming out, and the online ordering couldn't be easier. Quick shipping too. Love this store. A must visit!!!!! read more

It's an amazing store! Super friendly and supportive of finding board games that fit every need. Has constant new things, along with a fairly extensive used games for sale. Events happening at the shop constantly, with an friendly feel. read more

Truly an amazing store. Huge with tons of options and the best prices I have seen around the city. Really enjoyed my time here. read more

Good place to sell MTG cards. I'm currently selling my collection and have dropped off two stacks of cards to sell and both times have been pleasant. Good offers on what is being sold and a cool spacious place with a lot of MTG, Pokémon, and board games. Just finished my final run through the collection so I will be back soon to drop off another stack of MTG card to sell in the near future. read more

The customer service here was wonderful at first; everyone was nice, great selection of products. My mother went in and spoke with the manager Alex, and she offered to paint murals on the windows for him for free; she did this because her son, my brother, committed suicide and he always loved board games and card games, and she wanted to do something special to honor his memory. Alex agreed, and gave her money for supplies. My mother offered to do this all for free. Today my mother went in to speak with Alex about finishing the murals, which she hasn't been able to do because of the cold weather and her health. Her murals have been scraped off the windows in anger, and the employee Casey yelled at her and kept telling her to leave when she was outside on the public sidewalk. I cannot even begin to describe the hurt and disrespect that we are feeling. My mother did not deserve that treatment, no customer or any other person does. I cannot believe what has taken place. This is a horrible place to work with, and I no longer will ever shop here or tell anyone else to. This is a horrible situation. While being yelled at and scraping it off, the employee told my mother it looked like a $4 painting anyway. Absolutely outrageous. To see the painting as it was, click here: https://bit.ly/2RryfmL My mother's name is Marelle Couture; she is a world-renowned artist. Shame on you, Oasis. read more

Oasis is not friendly. If you need products, there are much kinder and better priced LGS in the area such as Game Night Games, Nerd Store, and Mythos. I will update my review if there is ever a better experience. I once saw the manager completely turn down a new card community at an event that was advertised. 14 people showed up and were disappointed to hear how they were withholding Armory Kits intended to promote local events. read more

Oasis games has a great atmosphere. Also, very nice people work there. A great place to go.

The atmosphere was great! It always is when I check out this place. The reason I leave a 3 star review because if you want cards, be ready to have that wallet ready to go because they Jack up their prices by 40% here. The premium charizard box is usually $120 but they sell them for $175? I never have seen that EVER and I go to shop way too much for my own good. Absolutely ridiculous and I know what they sell for wholesale as well. No need to be like this with the prices. read more

The new space downtown has a good set up but parking is a pain. We arrived for a game night group meetup and the back rooms were nice but full. We staked out a table and service was overall great. The clerks are helpful and there is everything you could want if you're a magic the gathering player. There is a cafe with basic menu options and a slow but thorough barista, clean seating, clean bathrooms, and all the best tabletop games for sale. Drinks were reasonably priced, sandwich at 6$ and lots of dessert options. The store was fairly busy for a Friday night and it's nice they were open so late. read more

Working next door at Church & State for the next few months, and my friend said this was the closest place for coffee....in a game store?? Ok, I'll give it a shot. I felt strange walking in because I'm not a game person at all, but the barista Rolland was super nice! Ordered a vanilla latte, and it came out perfect. Nice, smooth flavor. $4.50 for a 16 ounce, which seems to be the norm downtown. Be sure to sign up for the coffee rewards app! Don't be scared by the uneventful store front. read more

I really did like coming here, but last fall I had a homophobic incident with another player. I handled it myself, but I really don't want to go anywhere where there are people talking about how they believe gay people go to hell. Not for me! read more

Me and my husband frequent this place a lot! It was our main hang out while dating, and the staff have been nothing but kind and helpful! There always seems to be something going on, and a group for every type of gamer. read more

Great game store. One of the guys can answer questions about any game in the store. Huge selection. Much larger than the games shops in Los Angeles. read more

If you are into Magic: The Gathering and are from the Salt Lake City area, you have probably heard of Oasis Games. Oasis Games truly is an oasis for MTG players, boasting the largest inventory of MTG cards in stock and being a space for players to gather, play, and hang out. For those like me who are not into MTG or have no knowledge of MTG, the store has all types of board games, tabletop games, and gaming supplies to choose from. All games seem fairly priced, and the staff members are knowledgeable. The store also has a cafe and plenty of tables and chairs so it a great spot for people wanting to hang out regardless of which game they are playing. There are events or tournaments daily for people to gather, and the schedule is posted on the store's website. Most are centered around MTG, but there are events for other games too. The store hours are convenient, and parking is available in a garage as well as on the street. While Oasis Games has a huge focus on MTG, it is open to anyone with an interest in tabletop games and is a cool place to check out. With so many games to choose from, something is bound to catch your eye. read more

It was one of the only places I've had to wear a mask in months, but overall it was a really great place. Tons of games and wanted to buy even more. The parking is rough near downtown salt lake so be prepared to walk a little extra. read more

Really cool spot. We were looking for a coffee place and when I saw it was a game store too, SOLD. Lots of games and seating. The coffee was good and we rented a game to play for a while. We ended up buying the card game. If we were in the area longer, we would return! read more

I love this place, SLC is a really shallow city and it can be hard to make friends here but I have made some good friends playing Dungeons & Dragons. The cafe make great sandwiches and the coffee doesn't suck (It's hard to find good coffee here in Mormonville) Also has cheep munchies for when you want to snack while gaming. read more
