I think it was NASCAR and trucks going fast and loud with only a little bit of crashing. pretty sure the format is total laps over time and everyone has to run on each lane. crazy fast cuz it's wide open all the way and hopefully the car sticks except when it's supposed to slide. meanwhile on the flat track it's all practice practice practice.

I think the new owners are taking the store in the right direction and I really like the changes I…read morehave seen. I have had a lot of great interactions with them, and am optimistic about the store's future. New layout is much better. It's still a small space so their ability to play larger games and their selection is limited, but they are doing a great job with service and their prices are more reasonable than what I previously encountered.

Took my boyfriend to Dragon's Den after seeing a billboard for it on the highway. The place was a…read morelittle hard to find in a strip mall-esque location in Boone off a frontage road, but the GPS did take me right there. Overall, the store is a little small, but they were able to make really good use of the limited amount of space made available to them We stopped in close to store close, and it appeared we were the only guests at the shop during that time. One or two employees appeared to be there (playing a game with each other and customers, but still very welcoming and attentive to us and our needs) and two other presumably regulars were hanging out, as well. The one person working that evening had no problem getting up and looking for our requests (Tasha's Cauldren of Everything for DnD and Volo's Guide to Monsters) on the floor and in the back room and found it with no issue. He was clearly very knowledgable on all topics, including quickly and accurately speaking to what they had or didn't have in store. In asking his help for this review, my boyfriend described Dragon's Den as "what you might expect from a local gaming shop." While I am not 100% what that means, I guess I get the gist. The store had a wall with some small shelves of board games, a good variety of rulebooks for TTRPGs, miniatures, a small but interesting comic selection, and tables for playing. For those living in the Boone community, there appeared to be a lot of signs and ads right upon entering about upcoming games or events at the shop or in town. I enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back, but I would say this is not a store for people without specific interests in these types of games (aka me) or looking for specific items, as the "other" stuff (i.e., generic board games) is rather limited (which is fine). .

Small shop, but extremely well stocked. If you are a model railroader, they have a well-balanced…read moreselection of track-side structures and models, rolling stock, and locomotives from O scale to N. All the equipment is from top-notch manufacturers: Walthers, Atlas, Lionel, MTH, and many more. For other hobbies, they have a selection of model planes, ships, and cars. They even have models from movies: Star Trek, Star Wars, and all the figurine models from the classic horror shows. They also stock rpg materials, and a variety of paints, glues, and tools for every enthusiast. A decent selection of Estes rockets and kits, engine motors, and launch equipment round out the interests. In fact, every square inch of available space is utilized, without appearing cluttered or over-packed. Service was also top-notch, as the store assistants were well-versed on the tools, equipment and various hobby interests. Finally, the prices were good value for your money. And they have a thriving mail-order business, too! I will return in the future. Two thumbs up and five stars!

I went into the store this evening to pick up a copy of Winning Moves Risk 1959 Edition. I called…read moreahead to inquire about it, I asked if they price matched and the lady said yes. So I arrived and picked it up, took it to the desk and the lady said she needed to get approval for the price match. I looked up the listing from walmart to show her the listed price. She said that the price, including the shipping, has to be lower than their price. The listing says "Free pickup, Fri October 11th." She took a picture of the listing, including the shipping details and sends them in a message to her store manager, no reply. She called the manager, no answer. Time is burning. She messaged the store owner, no reply. She called the owner, no answer. We are now at 20 minutes of waiting. I figured "It would be a shame to leave empty handed, i mean after all Ive waited this long." She keeps messaging and calling until finally she gets through to someone, but they hang up on her. Finally, 30 minutes after I arrived, she makes contact with someone that can approve the discount. She is than told the manager has to confirm the price and is hung up on. So we wait even longer. Finally she gets a call, they wont match the price because walmart's free shipping is only if I spend $35. Walmart clearly ships this item to the store for free. The lady at the store was very nice. I cannot recommend her more highly. The manager of the store was both unprofessional and demeaning in the way he/she treated the customer and the lady at the counter. Later in the evening the owner called me to apologize and offered to deliver it to my himself.
