2 months agoI want to love this place, as it's the only place in the DMV where you can rumage for MTG uncommons/rares to bulk out decks and discover new concepts, but there's often nowhere to actually do it, and the staff act like you're a major inconvenience, even when you're making other purchases along with ...

I want to love this place, as it's the only place in the DMV where you can rumage for MTG uncommons/rares to bulk out decks and discover new concepts, but there's often nowhere to actually do it, and the staff act like you're a major inconvenience, even when you're making other purchases along with the uncommons/rares. This is a shame because it otherwise has the average selection of MTG, Pokemon & accessories at priced at online market levels. Normally the chance to rummage and randomly encounter unfamiliar cards is what brings me into a shop like this, but over the past few months the emphasis appears to have shifted to online orders and events. Wish they would do more to preserve the magic of shopping for and discovering MTG in person. Otherwise, why am I going to a store anymore instead of online? Show less

Labyrinth is truly a hidden gem of small business here in DC. As someone who has been getting into more board games over the years, it has been wonderful to have a store with such a wide selection of games to choose from. The staff is very friendly and helpful: whether you are someone who is relatively new like me or someone who knows board and card games, the staff will guide you to what you are looking for. If you are looking to shop small and get a gift for family and friends this holiday season I would highly recommend checking Labyrinth out! Show less

I have always been an avid fan of Labyrinth, but this weekend they fully turned me into a customer for life. Like so many others in the DMV and across the country, I'm a federal employee trying to navigate the current government shutdown, and my colleagues and I have been puzzling during breaks in the workday to keep ourselves sane. I reached out to Labyrinth to see if they offered any discounts on puzzles so we could stock up, and instead they offered me a HUGE pile of puzzles that have been donated ahead of a puzzle swap in January. I almost teared up when a Labyrinth employee brought out the massive stack. Huge shout-out to Melissa from Labyrinth for helping me out. Labyrinth team—I cannot even begin to tell you how much this kind gesture means to me (and my colleagues). And for those who like any of the puzzles in the picture, I will be bringing them to the January puzzle swap! Show less

Truly an incredible experience every single time! I recently visited a *less* incredible game store while traveling and realized I had to review my hometown game store — each visit, the staff direct me to AMAZING recommendations based on exactly who I’m trying to gift to or what I am looking for. They’re always friendly and on the nose with their recs and willing to go one step further (ok, like this but we could travel with it… like that but for kiddos). I LOVE being able to try most games before buying them and how supportive they are of new game designers! 10s across the board for Labyrinth — what a gem! Show less
