Customer Reviews

Great place to find some cool games! Pokemon cards and all kinds of things. Gabriel was very nice to talk with!

I took my nephew (11) here a few months ago and ever since then, he said he wanted his birthday party here. So, that's what we did! They played for hours and had so much fun. Gabe was absolutely phenomenal and has so much patience. We will definitely be back.

Even tho there wasn't much pokemon to pick from. The guy was really sweet and very helpful, even with other customers in the store! - first time there and from NWA! Great experience!!

Could be a cool place to hang out, but I never see many people there.

They have really nice set ups for pc gaming, Playstation, Switch and board games. There are drinks for sale and small snacks. There are also tables that can be used to eat food if needed... The staff is super friendly and will help you whenever problems come up. Highly reccomend this place if you want to play together with friends andor need card packs, board games and more! They also host gaming tournaments and events so check their Facebook page for new ones popping up. Super happy to have something like

I like this place but I'm not sure why they are closed when it says they are open. I went a good way out of my way to come here to get my son something for his Birthday since today is the only day I have to get him some so it's disappointing.

I've visited this place a few times with friends and if you want a place to hang out with your friends and play some games (either board or video games) or just have some snacks and chill out, this is the place for you. As of writing this, they have Nintendo Switches with Smash Ultimate (granted they didn't have all the characters and none of the DLC as of writing this review), PS4s with Street Fighter V Champion Edition, The Division 2, etc. and they're eventually going to have gaming PCs. They have a rewa

It's a great spot to get together and play all formats of MTG video games D&D and more I definitely recommend stopping by if you haven't

Great, friendly atmosphere for all sorts of gaming. Whether you're into board games, TCGs, or e-sports, this place has a little bit for everyone.

2/3 employees I've dealt with are pretty unfriendly and I felt rushed to get out of the empty store. Pulled a good card though so +1 star.

Very limited and horrible selection on ttrpgs and magic the gathering.

Never open and don't ever have Pokemon packs

This place is amazing. I have extreme depression and I never feel happy. Though, I went there with friends and immediately it lifted my mood. Just being inside gives me this warm feeling. They are so friendly and I feel like family there. It truly is a sanctuary.

Awesome place to go and hang out with friends that like to game or just watch others play.you can buy card games there such as pokemon magic the gathering and others theres tables where you can play dnd. There is a computer station to go in and play online games as well and yes that can include if you have a switch xbox games playstion as well not to mention customer service is awesome and they are willing to show new players how to get started. Very friendly and hust awesome place in general will deffently

I had never been to a place like this. I highly enjoyed the layed back atmosphere, and since i dont have a gaming system anymore, i was in heaven. Lol. Awesome place.

Top notch location. Excellent selection of Magic the Gathering singles and sealed product. Pok?mon and Yu-Gi-Oh sealed product as well. Lots of board games to both rent and to purchase. The eSports cafe aspect is absolutely mind blowing. 20+ fully optimized gaming PCs, PlayStation 4?s & 5?s, Nintendo Switches, and the Xbox Series X. Warhammer and Dungeons & Dragons accessories and figures as well! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Always smiling and willing to teach people how to play something

Best place in Texoma for MTG, Pok?mon, packs and singles. They also have board games, table tops and PC time! Great place to bring your friends and family!!

Went for a birthday party. Wasn't sure what or expect. All games are on computer. Everything is available. Great experience. They even have a snack area.

This is a great place to meet with friends and play board games as a group, or go solo and play some pc games on top of the line gaming rigs. Recommend for all ages

Was a great experience especially from a gaming consoles + PC and the D&D games standpoint! I give it a 5+ good people

Great place to have a lot of fun and great people running it. If would definitely recommend checking it out.

This shop and community are amazing. This is my go to place for anything magic, pokemon, or esports related.

Friendly staff and fun environment! Great place to get together and game!

Guy that works the evening shift that wears glasses is a super edgy douche. Probably the unfriendliest guy I've met in a while

Really good but it needs pc's

Awesome place, my kids love going here and gaming

Not a lot of merch and the bathroom is so gross!

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
