I have spent way too much money in this store; it is fantastic that the business has never shown a sign of struggling continues to be one of the core places to find great games. Even comparing prices with Amazon and eBay, Gamers World is only a few quid extra. The price is worth it to know that it is going towards the business and keeping something special alive in Dublin.

Was visiting from overseas and was considering purchasing some items. First off the first clerk was busy playing Pokemon cards with his friend and was impossible to catch his attention. After talking to another clerk I asked for a VAT refund form and they told me I just needed to present my receipt to VAT refund. Well went to the VAT refund desk at the airport only to be told I needed the refund form. If you’re part of the normal crew I guess this is the place to go. If you’re looking to check out a new shop I’d be careful — you’re either going to be ignored or taken advantage of.

Dropped into gamers world on a Tuesday(as they open late) with a couple of friends to look into getting a d&d boardgame. The first thing you notice is that they have tables set up and are running tournaments. Despite a magic the gathering tournament and other things going on the service from staff was amazing. Gave great friendly advice over which boardgames would be suitable aswell how to expand on them. A nice varied selection of stock and a friendly atmosphere. TL:DR: If you are interested in getting into or currently play/collect minatures/boardgames/magic the gathering, this is the place to go in Dublin.

Fearing the worst, I went into this nerdy man-cave to see if the good folk within could advise me on starting a role-playing game. The guy behind the desk was on the phone, ordering arcane items so while I was browsing I could hear him saying things like ‘three ineffable dragon swords… yeah…one balebrush of doom… one manifesting horde…’ and so on. After he hung up, I asked him about d&d and he couldn’t have been more helpful. I was tempted to go all out and buy the really expensive stuff but was advised to get a starter pack and see how it went before really investing. The different types of games available was explained to me clearly and blessedly free from condescension. This is exactly what I want in a situation like this, and it’s the kind of salesmanship that creates trust and loyalty. I was going to go to Amazon for my future purchases but the really cool customer service means I will be back at Gamers World. Recommended for anyone starting out.

As an avid gamer, one of the first things I do in a new place is check out if there is a games shop. Dublin was no different. I’ve been a long time writing this review even though I have been going there for a while now. Like most games shops they can be a bit intimidating to say the least. But its not too bad here. The selection is pretty good, there’s always something I want to buy unfortunately. Prices can be a bit expensive. but that’s generally the way. Overall if you want games go and have a look!

Ok, I’m a fair weather gamer and a novice when it comes to games shops, but I can tell this place is the real deal. There’s is usually a long table setup in the main shop floor for people to play at when we pop our heads in. Then there is the gaming room out back too, which I’ve never been brave enough to venture into. The selection appears to be quite good, but remember I’m a novice, so I could be wrong. As for value, the games and extensions are pricey — 30EUR for four card board extensions — but this is endemic to the industry from my limited experience of gaming shops. Even online these types of games and extensions are pricey. Staff are always polite when paying, but I’ve not had a chance to converse properly with any of them. They usually are chatting to others when we are milling about browsing.

Prices are pretty high, staff were pretty standoffish to me. A bit of a novice to a lot of the stock so when I asked a few questions about a board game I was buying I got sarcastic, condescending answers.

The place to buy table-top games, models, RPG, paint, dies, and more. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable, and yes, there’s no problem getting them ordering games for you. If you decide to go in one evening to play some games, you can rent games to try out with your friends. It’s quite central, and opens 7 days a week. Regardless if you are gamer, new to gaming, curious about what’s table-topping or RPG and so on… check this place out. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Definitely the best shop in Dublin for board games, role playing and table top gaming. I’m a board gamer and role player but I really appreciate the table top stuff going on there too, there’s always someone either playing or painting. They are open late most nights and have space to host gaming sessions.

I just had to drop in to see what a ‘Game’ store in Dublin is all about. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint! When I saw the 2 dudes painting little figurines and drinking coke in the corner I knew I have found an awesome board game store! This is not scrabble(though I love scrabble) or monopoly game store, this is a full on awesome fun board game store that carries Arkham Horror, BGS, etc. I definitely will go back there to pick up some board games!

It thrills me that Dublin is at the point that there are two table-top gaming shops within a street of each other, which means that the stigma attached to the likes of Warhammer is fading away and is one step closer to being socially acceptable. It also means the number of geeks in Dublin is growing at a rate the likes of which have never before been seen. WEARETHENERDS. WESHALLINHERITTHEEARTH!!! Once we have conquered asthma.
