9 months agoGreat place to shop. They have a wonderful selection and have always been willing to look up games on request to see if they can order them if not in stock/carried. The staff have always been fantastic and willing to talk about games, supplies, etc and answer any questions or recommend games.

7 months agoI have to commend Just Games Rochester for there customer service. I recently placed an online order and there was a small mix up with the product. After contacting the store, they took care of the issue in a very timely manner beyond expectation. Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate it!

2 months agoGreat staff. Great boardgame selection. Perfect atmosphere to try some games. Do wish they had a deeper stock of recent mtg packs but they do have most of the newest stuff now.

Lovely atmosphere and so many games! Board games, puzzles, trinkets, cards, dice... they really have it all. It's super nice to visit. I love that they promote other places to try games out. They even have a Discord! Talk about community focused.

I've been an infrequent customer for the past six or seven years, and it's one of my very favorite stores in all of Rochester. The staff is without a doubt incredible, and are always willing to make recommendations on board games, CCGs, and/or role-playing games. New games are always hyped and ready to demo, and there's an extensive library of games you can rent. The owner is a phenomenal communicator, from the emails to the newsletters, to the social media posts. If you have questions, they have answers. The staff are also focused on serving their community, hosting Used Game Swaps twice a year, allowing people to sell their games for store credit. While the prices can feel steep at times, but that's a price I'm almost always willing to pay for a friendly neighborhood game store that feels like visiting family every time I walk in. Show less

First time visiting today and I'll certainly be back. I was looking for some suggestions as my family and I are relatively new to gaming. Lilly offered some fantastic suggestions any of which would probably have been a great choice. But in the end she suggested I rent a few games to try them and told me I could use turn the rental fees into cash toward the purchase of a new game. What a fantastic idea! So, we're trying these three out and I'll be back for more rentals and purchases. What a great find! Show less

My ranking is that this place along with most others is more focused on making money. All be it better the most others. I do not believe it should cost anything to get a table and play with your friends. However it also appears space is limited but unless you have money to spend they don't want you here. 5 dollars to rent games is resonable but if you own the games and you show up you still have to pay. Sadly if someone damages or takes a peace of my game your or I in this scenario are out of luck. But I still would have to pay. Sorry I am not made of money. I wish there was a free space to use which is why I am forced to use the ymca on Thurston ave. Its free and I invite others who can't afford 5 or ten dollars a week to use the free locations whe you can. Show less

The selection of games is larger, and there is significantly more space to play games as well as a little lounge area right by the door. Check them out! Just Gave has been one of my favorite places to stop for games for a while now. They have a good selection of board games and card games with role playing as well. The game rental shelf is also a great idea, allowing you to try it a game before you buy. I was also very impressed that they set up a table in an elementary STEM night to show off some of the more recent educational/problem solving games for kids. Show less

This is a really nice LGS. I actually really like this place. It's got a comfy atmosphere, good lighting, friendly staff. Only been here once, but I certainly can see myself returning simply because of the staff. However, holy hells is this place expensive. Everything that I browsed is at or above MSRP. I genuinely can't see myself paying the prices asked here. Mayhaps that'll change if I find myself attached to the store in some way, shape, or form in the future. Until then, I can't see myself really coming in here to buy specific product. I must've been spoiled by my old LGS as this specific store doesn't quite hit the mark. However, looking aside from the prices, this is the better of the stores between Millennium and Just Games. This is the one I'm going to give a chance here in Rochester and it's the further drive for me. Plus the staff are great. That can't be understated. Show less

This is a great game store that can be overshadowed by millenium games. If you are in the area you owe it to yourself to go to both stores. This is a smaller shop but it holds up to stores that I have been to in much bigger cities. The thing that makes this one different is the huge library where you can rent games. Nice play area that is definitely used heavilly by magic players, but there is plenty of room for board gamers. This place is also great for its sales (recent sale had 15 off on all games with some 50 and 75 off...including seti for 50 percent off). Also keep and eye out for their game swaps so you can get used games or sell some for store credit. Show less

I've been an infrequent customer for the past six or seven years, and it's one of my very favorite stores in all of Rochester. The staff is without a doubt incredible, and are always willing to make recommendations on board games, CCGs, and/or role-playing games. New games are always hyped and ready to demo, and there's an extensive library of games you can rent. The owner is a phenomenal communicator, from the emails to the newsletters, to the social media posts. If you have questions, they have answers. The staff are also focused on serving their community, hosting Used Game Swaps twice a year, allowing people to sell their games for store credit. While the prices can feel steep at times, but that's a price I'm almost always willing to pay for a friendly neighborhood game store that feels like visiting family every time I walk in. Show less

It's also crazy how much merch they manage to pack into a relatively small location, without it feeling overwhelming or claustrophobic. A great place to come learn a new game, strongly recommended for kids, people new to the hobby or those who have been put off by the vibes at other game stores. Show less

First time visiting today and I'll certainly be back. I was looking for some suggestions as my family and I are relatively new to gaming. Lilly offered some fantastic suggestions any of which would probably have been a great choice. But in the end she suggested I rent a few games to try them and told me I could use turn the rental fees into cash toward the purchase of a new game. What a fantastic idea! So, we're trying these three out and I'll be back for more rentals and purchases. What a great find! Show less

My ranking is that this place along with most others is more focused on making money. All be it better the most others. I do not believe it should cost anything to get a table and play with your friends. However it also appears space is limited but unless you have money to spend they don't want you here. 5 dollars to rent games is resonable but if you own the games and you show up you still have to pay. Sadly if someone damages or takes a peace of my game your or I in this scenario are out of luck. But I still would have to pay. Sorry I am not made of money. I wish there was a free space to use which is why I am forced to use the ymca on Thurston ave. Its free and I invite others who can't afford 5 or ten dollars a week to use the free locations whe you can. Show less

The selection of games is larger, and there is significantly more space to play games as well as a little lounge area right by the door. Check them out! Just Gave has been one of my favorite places to stop for games for a while now. They have a good selection of board games and card games with role playing as well. The game rental shelf is also a great idea, allowing you to try it a game before you buy. I was also very impressed that they set up a table in an elementary STEM night to show off some of the more recent educational/problem solving games for kids. Show less

This is a really nice LGS. I actually really like this place. It's got a comfy atmosphere, good lighting, friendly staff. Only been here once, but I certainly can see myself returning simply because of the staff. However, holy hells is this place expensive. Everything that I browsed is at or above MSRP. I genuinely can't see myself paying the prices asked here. Mayhaps that'll change if I find myself attached to the store in some way, shape, or form in the future. Until then, I can't see myself really coming in here to buy specific product. I must've been spoiled by my old LGS as this specific store doesn't quite hit the mark. However, looking aside from the prices, this is the better of the stores between Millennium and Just Games. This is the one I'm going to give a chance here in Rochester and it's the further drive for me. Plus the staff are great. That can't be understated. Show less

This is a great game store that can be overshadowed by millenium games. If you are in the area you owe it to yourself to go to both stores. This is a smaller shop but it holds up to stores that I have been to in much bigger cities. The thing that makes this one different is the huge library where you can rent games. Nice play area that is definitely used heavilly by magic players, but there is plenty of room for board gamers. This place is also great for its sales (recent sale had 15 off on all games with some 50 and 75 off...including seti for 50 percent off). Also keep and eye out for their game swaps so you can get used games or sell some for store credit. Show less
