Drexoll Games
Local owners Darcy & Tamara Paulin, opened Drexoll Games on West 4th Avenue Vancouver in September 2002. After a few successful years in Vancouver, they felt the need for more space, so they expanded to a second location in Port Coquitlam in July 2006, with more square feet and room for extra inventory. They specialize in the best board games from around the world (over 600 board games and card games for all ages), chess sets, backgammon, collectible card games, wizkids games, rpgs, dice, gaming accessories.
Games That Guarantee a Good Time
From classic board games to all-the-rage German strategy games, Drexoll Games offers something for families and adults of every stripe. Check out their selection of over 600 games from around the world; even try one out in the store. If you’re looking for something new, you can purchase one of their Guaranteed Games risk-free. Each month they guarantee approximately twenty games that change on a rotating basis for the curious but hesitant shopper.
Cozy Corners and Gaming Booths
This charming board game store will have you browsing for hours. Designed with cozy nooks and crannies, endless wooden shelves laden with games, unique paintings, booths and gaming tables, the décor invites you to take your time in deciding what to buy. Need a party or role-playing game? Or maybe you need to add to your collectible miniatures games. Either way, you’ll find what you’re looking for as well as games you’ll never see in a department or toy store.
Free Games Night
Every Friday night from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. Drexoll Games hosts a casual, drop-in games night at both locations. There’s no fee, no reservation required and you can come alone or with a group of friends. Newcomers and regulars mingle around the tables and booths for an unusual night out. Bring your own snacks and coffee or purchase chips, chocolates bars, water and pop at the in-store concession. Either way, it’ll undoubtedly be an unusual and fun night out. They also run Magic the Gathering booster drafts on Saturdays at the Vancouver store.
I first met Darcy in 2002 at a gaming event when he was promoting his newly opened store and I can personally vouch for him and Drexoll Games. All class!
