Saw this store by a lucky accident. Did not know it was here I. A two story shopping center on Katella. Great for Magic the gathering players. They do other games too and have meetups and tournaments. If you are looking to check out some new places this is a great one to see. Check their Instagram or FB page for more details and information! read more

I came here for a pre-release event and for the event we were supposed to have prizing. The pre-release kits from the TCG company included 2 booster boxes. These guys kept the two boxes and didn't hand out any prizing for the event. They ended up selling the boosters from the event for 200% markup. Avoid TCG places like this, they are a cancer to the community. read more

Signed up for a gundam deck release event and the store jacked up the price of the starter deck from the msrp of $16 to $70 dollars and still charged $10 to get into the event. This is such a predatory practice and price gouging the community. Other stores are reasonable charging $20-$30 for entry and the deck. https://www.reddit.com/r/GundamTCG/comments/1nrdzgk/egregious_st05_event_pricing/ It was so bad that it made it to Reddit to highlight how abusive this store is. Don't support stores like this. read more

I registered for the Gundam ST05 deck release event, only to find out the store had marked up the starter deck from the MSRP of $16 to an insane $70 on top of still having to pay the $10 event entry fee. So that's $80 to play in the event! This kind of pricing is blatantly price gouging, scalper mentality and insulting to the community of local TCG players. OTHER STORES are hosting similar events for a much more REASONABLE $20-$30, which includes BOTH ENTRY AND THE DECK! The situation was so extreme it ended up being called out on Reddit as an example of how abusive this kind of behavior is: https://www.reddit.com/r/GundamTCG/s/qvCxI4Imfu Please don't support shops that take advantage of players like this. Stores like this should not be allowed to operate. My network of friends will be submitting formal complaints to Bandai about Spellhold.

Excellent selection of MTG cards at an excellent value, great customer service and a friendly environment to play MTG as well. I highly recommend Spellhold Games to anyone looking to play card games and pick up product and singles as well. My boys and I have been going there for a few years and it's one of our favorite places to play MTG and buy singles. Rob and his staff are amazing! read more

Came here because my son was looking for particular cards. They didn't have any but i ended up getting the Lorcana packs for myself. Everyone was friendly read more

I came in to this store recently with my girlfriend as we were looking to get into the One Piece TCG. This place has a pretty good stock of a lot of popular TCGs, and the two employees who helped me on two separate visits were both extremely friendly and helpful. This is a solid location if you're looking for sealed product at reasonable pricing. read more

First time customer and new Lorcana player. Was excited to hear that they game Every Monday & Wednesday nights at 7pm. They also host other TCG events. Place was kind of hidden in the back of a suite unit. Apparently you just go in if it's open. Staff and service was friendly and accommodating. Wished they'd give entry packs for tournaments. But at least we get a promo card. Other than that, they have a wide selection of TCGs to collect & play with. read more

Spellhold Games - Hobby Shops Near Me - Orange, California

I have been going to Spellhold games for 4 years since collector legion bought it. I did events 5 days a week bought all my cards there did all my prereleases there even though they are a little bit more expensive than some other places I could go. I always promoted and talked highly of the store. I was recently banned for supposedly harassing ppl when I just have adhd and anxiety which I manage through meds I just enjoy talking to and meeting new ppl and maintaining friendships amongst the community of which I am well liked and was told so I have a vocal tick which I have since got under control through going to doctors and finally finding the right meds to control it. So it hasn't been a problem for 3 years the doctors had me on psych meds when I needed treatment for Tourettes syndrome and finally switched to a doctor that understood my condition. I have been singled out by the management and have been picked on for years when I explained my condition to them immediately. If talking to ppl about magic decks, tournaments and cards is considered harassing ppl well you could have fooled me I called the owner to try to resolve this issue and get unbanned. He was in the store one day and I was making small talk with him while he finished up some business on the computer. Finally one of the other employees said to him this guy has been waiting 10 minutes for you to fill his order which he finally filled and when I spoke with him on the phone about the situation he said the first I met you that I harassed him since when is small talk harassing someone. I was seriously mistreated and was called a liar when I have always been straightforward with the staff. What ever happened to the customer is always right? I spend lots of money there just like everyone else, but because of my social awkwardness and my medical condition I have been considered "bad for the community" I have going to Spellhold since they were on Chapman and were independently owned. Even after the ban I still continue to promote the store even though I shouldn't but it is such a great community I still Send them business. Rob, Todd and Adam the owner are more concerned with the profitability of the store than have compassion for their disabled customer base. It just makes me sad that someone disabled would be treated differently than anyone else. Nuff said. I will no longer promote this store and recommend you don't go. Who knows you could be the next one singled out for making small talk (harassing) people. read more

My preferred store to be honest. They offer good prices on selling cards, and selling is usually slightly less than market. There is one issue...place can smell. It's not the stores fault, it's the clientele. Lol we all know some tcg players can have issues. But God damn yo. Staff is great! Inventory good. Nice place. Just wear a mask lol. read more

Great store! Very friendly staff and regularly fires 20+ people legacy weekly. Highly recommend!

Came with some friends to just play our own board games. There's a dozen or more long tables (you know the one) and standard chairs. Parking in the back and off street. Staff was nice. There was a MTG thing going on so everyone sorta in their own world. It's a bare bones shop focused on MTG and supplies but nice to know spaces like this exist. Will be back to play some games :) read more

This is my go-to location for Magic. Great store, friendly yet competitive atmosphere. Weekly events are 4 rounds with 120% store credit payout, and the weekend events are so well run that they just about hit capacity! I really enjoy the fact that hey stream the events too. It's fun to get camera time, and is fun to watch when I can't make it to the event. read more

I am still new to Magic, but I played my first two draft events ever here. The staff and players were kind in teaching me some of the ropes to paper draft. Prices are fair from what I saw at other stores. I have since done drafts at other stores and there really isn't much a difference, besides Spellhold sometimes having a difficult to read schedule. I would prefer they use weekly/monthly calendar as I have seen some other card stores do. read more

It small place, it very friendly the staff was friendly and helpful. It like a diamond in the rough.

Came here to check things out pretty clean and close to the freeway. Good availability of singles and prices are fair. Tournament scene is nice looking forward to Prerelease this weekend. read more

This place is AWESOME, the people there were really cool about telling me about the meta of standard format, and even gave me a little analysis on the deck i wanted to build since i was just so new to magic i had very little understanding. The employees are great, the location and layout are incredible, and the other customers there didn't feel like customers at all , more like friends I never met. Pretty happy after coming here though I wish I had come before going to SoCalMagic.. See Socalmagic if you want a piece of my mind concerning them... But WOw Spellhold Games is a real home run, hit it right out of the park! Great price great people, go here, that's all there is to it. read more
