I was introduced to Games Unlimited through their videos and enjoy watching the game reviews and lists of top games. After watching a video about Magical Athlete, I knew I had to have it! I put myself on the waiting list and the moment I got the notification, I ordered it (along with a few more games, of course). They shipped everything the next day, and it arrived even faster than I expected. When I opened the box, there was even a handwritten note on the invoice from Kylie about two of the games. That kind of personal touch shows how much they care about their customers. I’m so excited for my next game night to finally try them out, and I hope to make it to Pittsburgh someday so I can visit the store in person. Games Unlimited has definitely earned a fan in Oklahoma.

Fantastic store, atmosphere and locations. They carry tons of titles, like, hundreds of them, yet they find a way to keep everything extremely organized and laid out in a pleasing way.

They had multiple games on display for patrons to try out, as well as them working on a upper level playing area (in progress at the time of writing). They also have a used/open copy sections with dozens of great titles at very good prices that are kept in very good condition. If I lived in the burg, I would spend a lot of time (and money lol) in that place. Please support game stores like this that go above and beyond in every aspect! Show less

Out of curiosity, I check their website the following day, it's in stock. Complete bullshit Show less

6 years agoAmazing selection of board and table top games. Staff is super helpful. Offered up proper suggestions for my boys and I to play together. Even found a used version to save a little cash.

Friendly employees and a great selection of board games. I really appreciate the games out on display so one can see the game components. They also got games to demo. Definitely worth checking out if in the area.

10 months agoMy mom and I were absolutely blown away by how many board (and card) games were packed into this one store! It’s definitely worth repeat visits, especially to browse their selection of used games. The selection is truly top notch and the staff seem friendly.

8 months agoKnowledgeable, friendly staff. Huge selection. Welcoming environment. What more could you ask for? Well, snacks maybe. Still a 5 star experience because game stores aren't expected to have snacks.

On a scale of cotton candy to Brussels sprouts, Games Unlimited is an array of snacks! Step through their sliding glass doors and discover a world of board games. While we were there, they had a few games out to demonstrate if anyone was interested (we played a round, and it was a fun way to experience a game before making a purchase decision). No bathroom I could see, but they did have a water fountain with bottle filler. Another nice option is their used games shelf where you can find family favorites for a discounted price! Parking is paid on the street, but if you drive around the block, you can find free street parking. Show less

4 years agoWent in to see their new location and was really surprised. It is a lot more open and items are displayed well. The staff was helpful and attentive. They had some games set out to look at and try. Pricing wasn't much different than big box or online and would definitely rather support small business

This place is a dream. My family's been coming here for 5 years, and plan to continue for many more. It feels like home. Constantly fresh new games, puzzles, and more to try. Full dice wall, etc. But what truly MAKES this place are the people behind the counter. How do they find such gems? Each one takes care to spend time with patrons, helping them find JUST the right pastime. Ask them any question, ask about any recommendation, they'll have 3 answers minimum, waiting for you. AND you can rent board games for $5! Try before you buy! If you end up buying, the $5 counts toward payment! Mind blown. Love this shop. Thanks for all the memories. Show less

I went in to check out what board games and tabletop rulebooks they had, and walked out with several amazing smaller scale tabletop booklets that I would have never found otherwise. Also, everyone who worked there was *so* nice and helpful. The vibe was very welcoming.
