Really cool place! They host all kinds of games. I went for the Tuesday night chess club, there’s a great group that turns up. Really organized and they have players at all levels. Even if you’ve never played chess, this is a great place to learn!

Good selection, friendly and helpful staff; always enjoy going here. They'll even honestly tell you if there's a better game shop for playing your less popular game! Am considering joining their magic games.

I love this place. If you are a board gamer this is the store you want to browse. A great selection of the top (euro) games, and everything related to the hobby. Tons of tables in 2 large rooms, with seemingly events every night. Definitely check them out.

The largest tabletop, board and rpg game store in town, maybe in NorCal, with a huge room and huge stock of diverse nerd stuff. Main downsides are hard to find for the first time, smallish parking lot shared with a crowded gym making parking hard during high volume days, miniature paints can take a while to restock, staff knowledge for less mainstreams items can be hit and miss unless you're talking to the longtime staff. Plus sides are you can find almost anything you want, tables always available when event isn't scheduled, big community.

What are the Covid safety practices like here?

Anonymous | Sep 4, 2022
Gary Lane | Sep 4, 2021

We follow state guidelines in our retail area in regards to masks (staff wear them, customers not exempt under Ca guidelines wear them, etc). Store is sanitized, practice social distancing, etc. We recently ended temperature checks as studies have not found them not useful (and some medical facilities have stopped doing them such as UCD). Staff that are not feeling well or display any symptoms are required to stay home and get tested before returning to work.

Gary Lane | Mar 8, 2022

Hello Kyle. Pathfinder 1st Edition has been out of print for a few years now. We still have some 1st edition modules and setting books in stock, but not much else. We occasionally get some when people want to trade in their old books, but there have not been that many of late.
