Had an amazing experience with Mike and Michael today! They had fabulous recommendations for family games (6 players). They also wowed my out of town guests with their knowledge of battletech, with long conversations that were honestly over my head but my guests loved. Amazing customer service, they clearly love what they do. I will be back! Show less

3 years agoThis store is fantastic and it's the staff that makes it that way. Prices are decent and in line with what you'd expect, but the employees make this place truly great.

This store is fantastic and it's the staff that makes it that way. Prices are decent and in line with what you'd expect, but the employees make this place truly great. I used to play MTG, but haven't in almost 12 years. I recently wanted to get back into it and Alex made that incredibly easy. Helped me pick out new products to get me started, answered all of my dumb questions, and even ran through a quick game with me and my friend to show us the ropes of the new preferred play style. My only complaint is the beverage fridge could be a little better stocked and a little colder, but that's really it. Even then, it's not that bad and the drinks are reasonably priced. Overall, this store is great. Everyone, including other customers, have been very welcoming. Which is not how it was with MTG back in the day. Keep up the great work and you will have certainly gained a new customer for life! Show less

Funkatronic Rex is such a great place to hang out, buy Pokémon items, and play for fun. We've been coming here for about two months, mostly for the free-to-play events, and the atmosphere has always been welcoming and enjoyable. This was our first real tournament at Funkatronic Rex, and we were excited to join in. The location is fantastic, and the community is really friendly. However, during the tournament, we had a frustrating experience with one of the judges, who was unprofessional and dismissive. This was only the second time we encountered this particular judge, and her attitude was a real letdown compared to the usual positive environment at Funkatronic Rex. It was clear that she treats participants unfairly, applying penalties inconsistently and being rude to those who were just trying to follow the rules. She acted as if she owned the place, and it felt like no one felt they could stand up to her—meaning she must get away with this behavior regularly. Despite this, we’ll definitely continue to come back to Funkatronic Rex for future events. It’s a wonderful place to be, and we look forward to many more fun times here! Show less

Store is good lots of space, staff was a bit pushy on making a sale. they do sell pre-painted and used miniatures for Warhammer and battle tech that are in my opinion fairly well priced. Their game selection is fantastic if you like any of the typical wargaming selections.

Highly recommend for gaming enthusiasts. Whether you are a casual gamer looking for a fun game for date night or a serious gamer with an army of miniatures or custom card decks, this place has something for everyone. Stumbled into Funkatronic Rex after picking up food nearby. Was immediately impressed with the Owner’s enthusiasm and passion for games. The store is broken down into various sections and includes a wide variety of puzzles, miniatures, boardgames, card games, and role-playing games. The store also has a number of accessories for miniatures, collectors, and gaming enthusiasts. After spending almost an hour browsing the store and its immense collection, we purchased a number of games for our ever expanding collection. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, we were not able to enjoy the play-before-you-pay experience or participate in Funkatronic’s Friday game night. However, we are very much looking forward to returning when things get back to normal and joining this wonderful gaming community. Highly recommend. Great prices. Great inventory. Great people. 5/5 Show less

Stopped by right after they opened on a Thursday, took a look around, took some pictures, talked to one of the people working, they don't charge you to play at their store which is pretty neat - so you can grab some friends and come here and play board games or trading card games and have a good time without breaking the bank. Looks like they have an active calendar with gaming events and have a wide array of things to do for the space they have. I'd recommend stopping by and checking it out. Show less

A great gamer's game store. Friendly staff, great tables. Lots of organized play, and some of the best customers I've had the pleasure to board game with. Miniature games are very popular here (Warhammer, Battletech, D&D are especially well attended).

This place was pretty okay. Not a huge amount of room in it, maybe could get rid of a couch and put another round table or something. For sure need to do something to give More option for play.

This place was pretty okay. Not a huge amount of room in it, maybe could get rid of a couch and put another round table or something. For sure need to do something to give More option for play. When I was there 2 people got in a huge fight about mtg(never seen this before) the workers kicked out one of them who seemed to have been kicked out before, she was asking her time period before she can come back so she already knew how they do it. They sat and talked to her outside for like 3 hours... imo not a good player the way she acted should have been immidiate GTFO. So I do fear this is a repeatable thing that will happen. They have a normal card selection nothing too crazy. Getting a promo for playing is nice. Drinks in the way back should probably be more accessible. Overall vibe was just not the best. Might go back if friends force me to play there otherwise probably not. Show less

Funkatronic Rex - Games & More is an awesome gaming store with a fun, welcoming vibe that makes it perfect for both seasoned players and those new to tabletop games; the moment you walk in you’re surrounded by shelves filled with board games, CCGs, RPGs, and miniatures, and the friendly staff are always happy to point you toward something great or set you up at a table to try before you buy. The free play library and regular events make it easy to spend an afternoon with friends or meet new ones, and I’ve always felt right at home whether I’m picking up the latest Magic: The Gathering packs or settling in for a long D&D session. Highly recommend this place if you love games and community! Show less
