Game Preserve - Indianapolis, Indiana

CounterProductive Games

I'm from out of state and went there while visiting a friend. It is very comfortable, very well presented with nice wooden shelving, carpeting and a nice area in the back for gaming. The games were well displayed and the staff were very kind and helpful. Next time I visit, I'll definitely come again.

This game store easily clears all others in Indy (perhaps excluding its own second location). Great selection and knowledgeable staff, their points rewards system is the only one that's actually worth your while! Great place to play warhammer and magic the gathering on tournament nights. The redesign really brought new life, I love the fantastical interior.

In my unscientific estimate, there's probably a zillion different ways to have fun in this store. There's just so many games! No matter what genre of tabletop gaming you're into, whether you're a casual player or dedicated gamer, Game Preserve will definitely have something for you.

Beginning in the front of the store, you'll find the familiar family favorites. As you work your way in, you'll discover rows of dice, cards and what seems like every board game under the sun. If you have a favorite movie or TV show, they have games for that. Like historic or sci-fi themes? They have those games. Party games? Yep. Popular new releases? Got those. Miniature games? Yes, plus all the paints and brushes to customize your set.

Staff is always super friendly and helpful when you're looking for something specific or trying to choose between their many titles. I've bought several gifts there plus several games for myself, all have been a huge hit. In the evenings, they open up their huge side room for games (I often see people playing Magic the Gathering and I know there’s open game nights too). Plus there's a rewards program for repeat customers. I'll definitely be back!

You might be thinking to yourself, "I know it smell crazy in there." And depending on the day and density of gamers present, you might be right. But that's part of the atmosphere that comes with the territory, and when it comes to tabletop gaming, CCGs, miniatures, and related hobbyist paraphernalia, the Game Preserve is the absolute one-stop shop. One can frequently find dudes running TTRPG campaigns or Magic: The Gathering card tournaments in the large connected game room, which is a blessing for avid gamers of all ages looking to satisfy that anytime itch whenever GenCon isn't currently happening in Indy. Go buy some games for your home there, and you'll almost certainly be able to find someone who can explain it to you in great detail.

My go-to stop for board game shopping, other than online retailers. They always have an amazing & extensive selection of board games & TCG collectibles for the Indy area. Usually everything is sold at full MSRP, but it's worth it when I can find rare gems (i.e. Three Sisters & Stalk Exchange) when they are sold out everywhere else. Also, they have a great rewards program ( I think it is 1 point per $1 spent, then spend 100 pts to get $10 off) so you can rack up discounts.

I'm not a gamer but if I was I'd shop here. Came in to get some Christmas gifts and was blown away at the selection of games. Super friendly staff.

They do have a nice, alphabetically organized inventory of Magic cards but won’t tell you if they have specific cards in stock over the phone, and ask you to bring in a list. I brought a list and the guy picking my cards seemed annoyed and barely said a word to me while I was there. Nice store, but the staff could be more accommodating.

The two game preserve stores are easily some of the best, more gaming stores I've ever been to in the United States. Their selection of board games is unmatched to most stores I've ever been to.
