    Super friendly staff and a great local toy shop for the community. I was just browsing around and the staff made me feel welcome and there was no pressure to buy anything. They have a lot of children's toys for your young ones. I was looking for some Lego sets, they didn't have them, but this shop was definitely worth checking out. I wish them all the best!

    I like this little store. Very small and quaint but you can find a kind of stuff that you want. They have kids toys games hot wheels everything that you needed. And the service was great as well of course this is a small store but if you can't find it in a bigger store can find it I like this place. I found a Heartwell that I have been looking for for quite some time in the store.

    Our daughter checking out the amazing window display of stuffed animals shown off by the staff.

My husband and I are huge Pokemon fans and we love to open and collect cards. But with the surging popularity of this hobby, many stores such as Target, GameStop, and other collectible places sometimes increase their prices, so it's not worth it to buy them overpriced. Gamescape keeps their prices as MSRP and their staff is very friendly. They keep it simple and easy with their Pokemon trading card items behind the counter and if they have more, they'll tell you and if they're not, they're out. None of that "hiding items from customers" nonsense that you see from other stores because they want to keep it for themselves, and etc. I also appreciate them accepting our donations of Pokemon items and accessories such as playmats, dice, binders, etc. After opening Pokemon cards, my husband and I do not need 10+ playmats, bunch of dice, and countless binders. With all of these in "never used" conditions, we would rather donate them to kids who would appreciate them more and have fun with them. I definitely do not want to sell those to kids or others as well, since they are free items with the Pokemon cards. Gamescape accepted our donations and was very appreciative. Thank you Gamescape for being one of the few places who sells their Pokemon items at MSRP and allowing us to enjoy this hobby without burning our $$$ too much lol

Ironically, during this pre release event for a new set, the official store didn't have any products. ( Gamescape price are the best and they give free packs per win. I definitely recommend you to shop here for your TCG and figuring hobbies needs.

    Visiting San Francisco for the first time in 19 years, I made it a mission to find a game store…read more The closest one was about a mile away, so I walked from The Clancy in SoMa with one goal: buy the new 2024 D&D Monster Manual. That's my rule: if I step into a game or comic shop, I have to buy something. It's a hard habit to break at this point. From the outside, the store looks massive -like it might contain the multiverse. But once inside, the retail selection isn't quite as big as it appeared to be. BUT... it's got great stuff. Solid board game options. Plenty of space for RPGs and card games. It's the kind of store that's clearly built around social gatherings and play. Spacious and not cramped. A rare find in a city setting. There's an upstairs and downstairs, but those seemed more dedicated to table games you can meet up and play rather than shopping, so I didn't explore too much. The staffer working was friendly and helpful. She even checked if they had the new Monster Manual. Unfortunately, they didn't. That was a letdown. I mean, it's been out for months. If a game store doesn't carry the NEW core D&D books, especially right after a new edition drops, it stings a bit. They had plenty of the original 5e, but not the new. Still, I wasn't leaving empty-handed. Picked up a slick set of dice and the softcover Pathfinder 2E Monster Core Pocket Edition. Gotta support the cause. Overall? I'm glad I found the place. It's a real hangout spot. Honestly, throw in some coffee and comfy chairs, and I'd post up there for hours. Coffee and dice----- it just works right? Note: The 5-stars is a soft 5 because it really doesn't deserve a 4. I just wasn't floored and wowed by the place in general. 4.5 would be perfect. But a 5 it is DESPITE they didn't have what I came to get.

    They gave me out really weird vibe and uncomfortable atmosphere with staff or whoever is in there…read more I ended up paying for sometime anyway because I didn't want to walk out empty handed, especially with the attitude of whoever work there.

Though our kids are much older now, we love to stop in for blind boxes, collectibles, and to scratch the incessant NeeDoh itch. Parking is almost always a challenge, given the area. Weekend visits require serious patience. The store can get shoulder-to-shoulder packed with large strollers in narrow aisles and tiny tots having very big feelings whose parents are doing what they can to regulate, some more than others, so there are def moments of chaos. As a momma who had 2 under 2 at one point, I've been there and hella get it. For my own sanity, we aim for off-peak visits to peruse in peace. As you can imagine, service is more attentive when the staff:customer ratio is more manageable. But the last couple visits, it's been fairly quiet in the store yet no greeting upon my entering, nor a welcoming vibe upon checking out at the register. So much so that I didn't bother to have them do the customary complimentary gift wrap for all the presents I picked out for my youngest. It was such a bummer to leave feeling icky for what is normally one of my happy places, especially as a long standing customer.
