Lots of different games. On football game days, they offere 10 percent discounts for evey one who shows them their ticket stub. The only thing I don't like about it is that we have to sign in our backpacks. It makes it appear as if they don't trust us, and the workers don't seem to have a nice attitude. Overall, if you can think of a game, it has it here.

Im not an avid board gamer, but I went to Games of Berkeley a lot when I was a college student coming home from school. Its a great place to pass time, because there are just so many different games, most of which are unheard of by even the most die-hard gamers. Be sure to check out this place if youre looking for a neat gift. Or if you think youre a Magic the Gathering master, test your skills amongst others during their tournaments, which are held throughout the year.

Games of Berkeley is a good compromise between a true gamer's store and a mainstream game/toy store, It has a lot of things that appeal to non-gaming familes as well as some 'transitional' games to invite such browsers to the world of more serious games. There is also a good selection of European games that are difficult to find at mass retailers. There is a decently sized section for roleplayers with books and miniatures from different publishers. Conveniently located across from the BART station, Games of Berkeley is worth a good browse (at the very least) now and then,
