2 years agoVery professional, friendly, and knowledgeable staff. Maybe one of if not the largest variety of nerdnom available I’ve seen in the Carolinas and Georgia. Bought supplies and Magic from them as well as tasty snacks and beverages. These folks know how to run a hobby shop. Recommended for everyone.

My first visit here was on 7/4/25. I was surprised at the amount of games, toys, puzzles and fun items that this store had for sale. We went to play pinball specifically and they had many options to choose from, as well as arcade games. It appeared that there were multiple Dungeons and Dragons games in progress during our visit. I ended up buying a great puzzle as a gift. I'm not a fan of cats, but the recipient was super happy. Show less

3 months agoGot some Army Painter Speed Paints 2.0, Malignant Green and Bony Matter, and a box of Nurglings. About done with them. My next visit, I picked up some Death Guard Blightlord Terminators. Great store but wish it was closer to home.

Very poor customer service this past Friday. Came in to trade in my PS5. The lady at the counter started off rude and offered us to leave the console and wait 3 days………..or they can do it right then. Of course I chose right then but she kind of sighed and took the console to the back to check it out. After a bit she caught our attention and told us it was ready and to get back in line to get it and I’m assuming left to go home which makes sense why the 3 day option was offered and she acted rude when I didn’t want to wait 3 days. So we wait in line, we get to the counter and say we have the ps5 and the 3 games and are offered…..$165 for all of it…honestly a joke (game stop offered $250 just for the console) but we were nice and just said no thank you. The guy also threw an attitude at that point once we denied the price and acted like it was a bother I guess. We were going to look around after but after having both employees act like that we just decided to leave and purchase the board game we wanted off Amazon. I’m all for supporting smaller businesses but when the customer service is this poor it truly isn’t worth it Show less

4 months agoA subculture all it's own. The largest selection of board & role playing games I've ever seen. Free tables to just play games with friends and family. Great soft drink selections.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE. I am a lifetime lover of board games with friends, and I am so happy to have found this jewel! Looks like they've recently expanded big-time. Front half of the store is full of purchase-able board games, tabletop games, figurines, cards, toys, etc. There's an arcade off the side of the store. Then the entire back half of the stores is FULL of giant tables where people can come meetup and play board games, including a GREAT selection of demo games to pull and play for free! (Photos shown of the demo game shelves) My husband and I went last night and played a round of Villainous. It was great to see so many people enjoying a late Sunday evening of games. What a great culture and environment they've created. We'll be back over and over. Show less

Husband and I were totally out of the loop and did not realize that its next to impossible to find Pokemon cards at major retailers these days due to scalpers. We have a young kid who is just starting to get into them. Thankfully at one of those retailers my husband ran into a friend who told him about Firefly and he booked it over yesterday evening. Absolutely wild to me that Firefly is only one of a few places instituting a purchase limit on cards but I am really grateful that they do! A small child was thrilled and got her first gold card. Thanks for prioritizing the real enthusiasts, of all ages, over the greedy. Show less

Amazing shop! Tons of board games, DND, miniatures, plush, card packs and accessories for sale, lots of table space to play, and an entire snacks section if your staying a long time gaming. If we lived closer, this would be our home game shop!

Huge Store! Something for everyone! Fashion, Fashion accessories, Tee-Shirts and Japanese Candy, Figures and Figurines. Card games and board games from all decades- baby boomer post WW2 through the present. Nostalgia and The New abound in this ten thousand square foot temple to the gaming gods. There is even an Arcade and space to play all your DnD type games with your friends while you argue Kirk or Picard or Janeway and, of course, the inimitable discussion of whether the original Star Trek consists of 168 or 169 episodes (depends if the Finale is a two-parter). And who can forget that steamy kiss between Kirk and Uhura. I found a DS Lite charger cord that I needed and picked up a really cool game called Ever Oasis 3DS that I had never heard of, but checked reviews and it's highly recommended bc it is made by the same creator house as Legend of Zelda. They have many of the now Jurassic game consoles and a nicely curated selection of Jurassic games. I also got some Japanese Matcha Candy and my dad found some Caramel Cremes. From Crumb Crunchers to Odiferous Incel Basement Dwellers, there is something to lure everyone one out of ones' basement or playroom and into Firefly. They are about to open a "Sister Location" (FNAF reference for those of you older than ten) on Harbinson BLVD...move over Gloria Swanson (Sunset BLVD) "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. Demille."

I mostly play Magic the Gathering here, and Firefly provides a massive play area where many groups can enjoy their games in a comfortable and convenient setting. Magic The Gathering Commander Precon prices are a bit high, but the value this place provides out weighs a complaint over those prices.

Just pop up here and play a couple games, talk to the staff about what they would recommend or browse around and see what gaming-geek find sparks your brain. The staff is super helpful and very friendly. And you always have a chance to meet new people - fellow gamers - who have never played a game to those whose expertise will guide to new corners of logic, strategy and fantasy. AND it’s family friendly! There are kids there of ALL ages - babies and toddlers, all the way up to grandparents who have their weekly tabletop game. Show less
