Well stocked, friendly staff. Large gaming area in the back

A bit outdated and focused mostly on what appeared to be minis, employees were helpful and they had a few hidden gems when it came to TTRPG handbooks.

Super friendly and welcoming. Went for paints and they had a good selection.

Everything about my experience with this store and the event I attended was terrible. I drove 2 hours from Orlando along with 2 other friends to attend the Road to Nationals flesh and blood event. Upon our arrival we were told that the event was not classic constructed like advertised and was in fact draft which upset us but we drove 2 hours to go there so we played anyway. My friend Alex and I made top 8 (1st&2nd after top cut) which was awesome but we were told right before the top 8 draft that the store did not receive the promo kit. They received the promo kit and notified us about it a week after the event. They told my friend and I that they shipped it to us around a week later. However my issues arises in the fact that I haven't received my promos in the mail and they have failed to provide a tracking number for the $400+ in promos they owe me. I just find it hard to believe it takes 3 weeks+ to ship to Orlando. With all that said I would avoid this store. Edit: I appreciate the timely response I just fail to see why you would even lie about shipping them out, fortunately I received them today but the letter was stamped August 16th 2022 at 4pm

Do they have/sell any TCG for Bakugan? Hard to find the cards

We don't. We've been open over 7 years and that's the first time I've been asked for that game. I'm a fan of a couple of unpopular games myself, and I know what it's like to always be looking. Best of luck with the search.

Do y'all buy game consoles

We don't buy or sell electronic games. We sell board games, role-playing games, miniatures, collectible card games, puzzles, paint & hobby supplies for the miniatures.

How do I find out if my Pokémon cards are worth any money

We don't buy or sell Pokemon singles, but many people use tcgplayer.com as a price guide for single cards from many different games.

What are the Covid safety practices like here?

We encourage social distancing, clean our tables and other surfaces regularly, and we require masks. Our health and safety advice comes from peer-reviewed scientific papers and a PhD with a background in epidemiology rather than social media or newscasters. We take good care of you. Stay safe!

Do you have the pendulum game

Friendly Local Game Store | Oct 28, 2021

We do not have it in stock, and distribution seems to be out at the moment.

Do you have ouija boards

Shelley Nevins | Oct 28, 2021
Friendly Local Game Store | Oct 28, 2021

We do not normally carry ouija boards. However, I do have a source for wooden games like chess and backgammon. I will see if they have a supply available because it's time for me to restock from them anyway. I will point out that both the manufacture and delivery of many products are still interrupted by COVID, and that we've had trouble getting many things in stock over the past year. Check back with us in a week or so and maybe we will have some.

Does Vortex usually have a Friday Night Magic?

I don't know the schedules of other stores. You would have to ask them.

Just moved to the JAX area and looking for a DND group. Do you guys host events for people to find groups?

Joel Diaz | Oct 28, 2021
Friendly Local Game Store | Oct 28, 2021

We do! We are the largest store in Jacksonville, and the best for RPGs. The owner has actually written official D&D material, and we carry every official D&D book, some third-party materials, and more miniatures and dice than everyone else in town. You can use the Facebook page to coordinate games or post on an old-school physical bulletin board in the game room. We also run a beginner game for people who have never played before. We do require masks for in-store play and encourage social distancing. We hope to see you soon.

Do you carry any miniatures: Bolt Action, Warhammer, etc.?

Richard Leclercq | Oct 28, 2020
Friendly Local Game Store | Oct 28, 2020

We have an extensive collection of Games Workshop models--nearly the full range for the two main lines (Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k) and a good selection of their secondary games, plus the full range of paint & hobby supplies. We don't carry any other miniatures game lines, but we do stock the entire range of Reaper Bones and WizKids Nolzur's line of pre-primed miniatures for D&D.

Do you guys buy used miniatures?

Rian Morris | Oct 28, 2020
Friendly Local Game Store | Oct 28, 2020

We buy used Games Workshop miniatures and D&D miniatures.
