TL;DR review: Selection isn't great and it's pretty obvious that employees aren't exactly invested in helping their customers. Showed up at about 4:30 fully prepared to spend about $100 in board games I was looking for. When I walked in, it seemed the one employee had just gotten off the phone with a customer who had called to let them know the parking lot was full, and if there was any other places to park. The employee seemed to be unreasonably angry about this interaction and proceeds to rant about it to the group playing at the table next to him. They then proceed to bad mouth this customer together talking about "have they never been anywhere before? What do they want me to do?" And "you were a lot nicer than I would have been." This conversation went on VERY out in the open the entire time I was browsing. The selection of board games was very limited and a lot of shelf space was empty. I say this respectfully, I have literally found more variety inside Target or Barnes and Noble. I was really excited to finally check out a board game shop, but this seems to be more of a Magic/Warhammer store that also carries a few board games staples. I looked through the entirety of the store twice and didn't end up finding what I was looking for, nor received any sort of greeting or assistance. The visit definitely left a sour taste in my mouth and I left with not too many reasons to come back. Selection isn't great and it's pretty obvious that employees aren't exactly invested in helping their customers. Show less

Came in on 3/3/25 , with intentions on looking thru some bulk cards . I’m greeted by “Galen” apparently he’s the owner or something .

Came in on 3/3/25 , with intentions on looking thru some bulk cards . I’m greeted by “Galen” apparently he’s the owner or something . When I asked to go thru the Aetherdrift bulk , he first told me that the store doesn’t carry bulk. I then let him know that I came to the store Saturday night and an Employee by the name Brent , who was very accommodating, let me go thru the cards and find what I needed. He then proceeded to tell me that they just put the cards into the data base, so I go to the computer and attempt to find the cards I’m looking for but none of them are popping up , in fact they’re aren’t any “aetherdrift” cards popping up at all. Now I’m annoyed because this is the second lie. I ask him if the database is updated and he tells me yes, but still no results are popping up . He asks me to write down the card names I’m looking for and he’ll “put them to the side for me”? None of this made sense to me and I was hella frustrated at this point . On top of everything this dude had this condescending tone with every word he spoke. As if what I Was saying didn’t matter. I let him know to his face that his energy is garbage, and it makes no sense how someone like him is in charge. Plus there was a random dog roaming around? I don’t want to taint the whole store because the other employees have always shown me respect especially Brent that guy goes above and beyond for the the store . Galen you know exactly who this is, and if you ever want a gentleman’s duel with fist I would LOVEEEEE to take you up on that offer . Show less

Went there to trade my old boardgames after looking up online posting questions and calling the store informing me I can sell my old boardgames for credit. Uber there only to be told we only accept trading cards. So I had to Uber to half price books in Westminster I waited for a hour and half to trade my old boardgames for $ 3.75 back. You know what you're store is a literally a boardgame store you should allow customers to trade their old boardgames for credit. What a terrible marketing strategy you have going there. Show less

They let up play a demo of Betrayal at the house on the hill, even though there was a magic tournament about to start we were still about to get a table and play. Best of all was the unique drink selection that made things a bit more interesting! Will definitely come back next time we are in town! Show less

Today I even called looking for 5 specific cards and they took the time and checked their inventory while almost every other card shop was rude about it or hung up on me. Though Asgard didn’t have the specific cards I was looking for I can not recommend them enough! 10 out of 10 Show less

Gorgeous interior, friendly welcoming staff (Luke made me feel right at home - good people), and at noon on a Sunday, there was a lively buzz of about 18-20 people gearing up for a Pokémon card game tournament or playing their own, other tabletop games. Terrific vibe, wide selection of products and tabletop games and interesting architecture/space. I love Asgard Games! Highly recommend 🤓 Show less

Good place to play boardgames. Their main focus is Magic the gathering but I went to play from their free to play boardgame selection that it was pretty good. They don't charge any fees to play in the store and all tables have mats on them making it very comfortable to play games. They have a bar where you can buy beer, soda or snacks. Sodas and snacks are usually $1 each. In regards food, the location of this store is great because it is surrounded with a lot of restaurants and they also allow you to get food delivered as long as is nothing that they sell at the store (drinks). In summary it is a great boardgame place, so far 3rd place on top places to play with friends (#1 Battlehops, #2 Tea + Victory) Show less

Great store with a nice selection. Their staff was very nice and helpful. Looks like they catered to a wide variety of games and events in store, which is awesome. Nice to see that every hobby is being supported. Bright, clean, and inviting, just what every store should be like. They had some dedicated tabletop miniature game tables and a great selection on terrain to use while in store. Looks like they sold some adult beverages, I don’t drink but that might interest some people. I’d suggest taking an Uber or Lyft there, parking seemed difficult, but they may have had spots in the back we didn’t see. Overall, I’d recommend you stop by and start up a hobby there. Show less

I come here for magic and one piece. All the employees are very kind, and I consider them friends. Most importantly why they deserve a 5 star rating is that they were the only store in the greater Houston area that I know of that sold op14 boxes for $120. The next cheapest store I'm aware of was selling for $150. The only caveat was that you needed to participate in the tournament for the event and the box would be unsealed, which wasn't an issue for actual players of the game who wanted to open cards. The only gripe I have with the store is that parking is a nightmare. They can fit 15 cars max in their parking lot, after that you must park on the streets next to them. But if that's my only issue with the store, they're a great store. Show less
