The people that run this place make it feel like home. I travel up from NJ just to see them. 10/10 would recommend. -Shiny Zubat

I drove more that 3 hours to enter a tournament here, and it's not the first time I've done it! I've been playing in video game tournaments for almost a decade and I've never been to a better venue for regular local gaming tournaments. They have two gender neutral bathrooms, lots of space for players / TVs, and everything was clean and they went above and beyond current COVID-19 guidelines. They sell small concession stuff like snacks, drinks, and whatnot, and they don't overcharge for them. The communities they're fostering are extremely friendly and inclusive. Like seriously, there's no clique mentality. Just show up, even if you've never entered a tournament before. You'll probably make some friends because everyone there is a homie. Even the owners are devoted members of the community, and not in a cheesy business way. I can really only speak for Super Smash Bros tournaments because they're the only tournaments I've entered here, but HoG events are amazing. If you're in the New Haven area, and you've ever considered entering a gaming tournament, go to something at Hall of Gaming. You won't regret it.

I go here on Thursdays for Smash bros melee, and it is truly a perfect venue. Lots of setups, always comfortable temperature, and perfect people. Absolute love
