Canton Games

The store couldn’t possibly fit any more games in it. There might be a problem with overly specific items and availability, but otherwise it’s a really nice store and the store clerk is very friendly and helpful. Great place to pick up unique items for Christmas gifts. Walmart doesn’t have this stuff.

This seems like a cool little store. I’ve only been here once when I went to buy an expansion for Settlers of Catan but they have a nice selection of products considering their size. The cashier who was working at the time was very friendly and helpful and prices were barely any higher than Amazon’s. This is the kind of local business I enjoy supporting.

I definitely would have given this store a higher rating a year ago, but lately it seems like their game selection has really dropped off the map. They just don’t have the depth of selection I would hope for, which is really a shame considering this is the only store in the city at least ostensibly dedicated to games.
The owner is a nice guy and very helpful, but I don’t think the store is really concentrating on games much anymore. I plan to go back some time soon to see if the situation has improved, and I really hope that it does. This city needs a dedicated game store.

My boyfriend and I were bored on a dreary Saturday afternoon. We have a comic book store we frequent, but it didn’t have a whole lot of games. I was looking into some card games, and my boyfriend can’t pass up action figures. We went there and were immediately greeted and helped by Dan. He asked us what games we’ve played and made recommendations on what we may like.
The store is small, but it is stuffed to the gills with board games, card games of all types, action figures, Warhammer (there was probably more of this type, but I didn’t look deeply), RPG books, Magic, Cthulu and about everything you can think of. I used to play Magic: The Gathering ten years ago (Ice Age!) and I’ve been really jonesing to play again while my boyfriend had never played it. Dan was happy to give us some free starter packs (30 basic cards of one color to learn the game — he gave us one of each color) and recommended some theme packs to pick up.
Overall, he was very friendly and inviting, telling us of events we could go to and just making us feel welcomed. The only problem we faced was parking, but this is pretty regular for Baltimore. We will definitely go back.
