We were drawn in immediately, wide-eyed at all the tabletop and RPG items. We hung out at the back tables and played some demo tabletop games to kill time. I love their rating system, and the staff of course are very knowledgeable with recommendations. We ended up buying a few of the games when we got back home since we didn't have room in our suitcase. Since my fiancé is the DM of our D&D game, he got inspired by the books, minis, and scheduled games that take place at the shop. Such a neat place... We'd definitely be regulars if we moved here but for now, we'll settle on making this home base on our future trips to Vancouver.

Just discovered this fairly new little board game, card and role playing games store next to the…read moreMeridian Street UPS. The staff are attentive and quick to serve and offer suggestions for whatever a customer might be looking for. There's a tower dice game at the front counter a patron can roll dice once a day for a possible discount. They have plenty of tables set up for open game time for people who bring their own and Saturday nights open game time with games provided for those who might need one. I was looking for simple and easy to play games for family get-togethers and found what I was looking for on the consignment Shelf

After spending over $800 on Hanayama brand Huzzle puzzles & having one puzzle clearly defective &…read moreneeding a actual hammer to get it to move/work, they were not willing to help us exchange this one defective product & sent us on our way literally holding the bag so to speak & still taking all our $$! Clearly not willing to do anything because it was opened yet was totally defective & willing to overlook our big $800 purchases & future business for a single $19 Huzzle puzzle product! Pure stupidity to also lose out on future hundreds of dollars of purchases from us, while not exchanging one single $19 product & not wanting to take the $19 hit perhaps, idiotic & we would not recommend buying anything there & even they suggested next time to buy Hanayama Huzzle products online at PuzzleMaster.ca & avoid buying from them alltogether, how stupid can a business be, sorry Mind Games Not an intelligent move or mindful thinking!!!

Situated on the top floor of the massive Metrotown Centre, Mind Games always somehow ends up being…read moreone of the last places we visit in Canada before heading home. An absolutely absurd amount of FunkoPops is the least exciting thing about it (well, besides the resident gamers with questionable hygiene habits, but that's pretty much *every* game store), but they do have a sizeable selection of board games, CCGs/TCGs, figures, models, dice, RPG books, fidgets, toys, puzzles, posters, and more! It's clean, well-organized, well-stocked, and well-staffed. In short, better than most hobby and gaming stores out there!

I stopped in to The Book Rack today and decided to have a light snack at the Cafe inside…read more I chose the Mushroom and Olive flatbread and Autumn Heat tea. The flatbread was nice and crispy with a good flavor for something pre-made and just needed to be heated. But the highlight of my visit was the Autumn Heat tea. The "Heat" refers to the spice level (one of the ingredients is Hot Honey), you can choose for it to be served hot or cold. I chose to have it served hot. I really enjoy spicy food and drinks. This tea was very spicy! If you enjoy spicy foods you should give this one a try. Otherwise, I recommend you pass on this one! As normal, the staff are very friendly, knowledgeable about what they sell, and polite. Always a pleasure to shop at The Book Rack.

What a great store for board and trading card games! As a lifelong fan of various CCG / TCG and all…read morethings fantasy / sci-fi related, I've been to quite a few of these types of places over the years. This is one of the cleanest and most well-maintained gaming establishments I've seen. Even though Screen Free is a bit more family friendly in terms of their overall products compared to other tabletop gaming stores (they have games and puzzles for all ages, not just for fantasy / sci-fi fans), this shouldn't be a reason for the other places to operate without a basic level of tidiness. I would have no problem busting out my decks here for some pick-up games, unlike some other stores I've been to that were just downright NASTY. Nasty as in, even though my cards are all in deck protectors, I still would not be comfortable laying them out on those other places' stained and sticky tables. Yes, thank goodness for personal gaming mats, but then I still gotta clean the bottom of the mats afterward, ya know? Thankfully, I would not have that problem here... I could share some truly horrific experiences at some of those other establishments, but I'll refrain for now. Staff I interacted with were all very friendly too; none of them gave me the vibe of l33t nerd status, which sometimes runs rampant at similar places. The store is located in a shopping mall so there is plenty of free parking. An awesome first experience and will definitely be back for future CCG needs!
