Editorial Review for Gamescape – by Kim Cooper

In Short
Since the early '80s, Gamescape has provided hard-core gamers with everything they require to lose themselves in play. Chess fans can choose from a basic magnetic traveling board or a carved set featuring "Alice in Wonderland" characters. There are tiny metal monsters and warrior figures to populate the role-playing games carried, high-end jigsaw puzzles that transform into games as they're completed, dart supplies, bingo sets, backgammon boards, tarot cards and more.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

The stock is 100-percent old-fashioned board, card and role-playing games. It doesn't stock computer games, so don't ask.

Save Time

Inhabitants of the outer reaches of the Bay Area should know that Gamescape has a branche in San Rafael.

Look Good

Ask to see the $1,000 imported Go set. It's a foot thick, made of a single slab of wood, and makes a special sound when a piece is properly set down.

My kids and I discover great games here, games that we all play or take with us on vacation or teach us stuff. The staff is supportive. The selection engaging. I hate to shop. But, I love Gamescape.

Great gaming shop in San Francisco! From Checkers to Warhammer 40K. This a great shop for the hobbiest. Wide range of paints and hobby supplies available. Staff was helpful and polite. Downside is the parking. Parking seems best on weekends.

Pros: Customer Servic, Variety, Price

Cons: , Location
