I had a high nostalgic level. Played so many games. If you want the vibe of going to your friend’s basement and playing Goldeneye this is the place.
A fun and unusual spot to visit in downtown Austin, with fun for all ages! We loved the scavenger hunt and the variety of toys, including D&D and Magic the Gathering, and the chance to jam out to Guitar Hero and play some classic Galaga. Will recommend to all sorts of nerds and kids alike!
Definitely worth dropping in here when you're in Austin next. It was like a trip down memory lane. Such a good collection of toys, consoles and arcade machines. You can even play the machines and pinballs for free!

Walking into this toy store felt like stepping into a time machine. From the moment I entered, I was surrounded by shelves packed with toys I hadn’t seen in years—action figures, classic board games, vintage dolls, and even the same building blocks I used to spend hours playing with as a kid. It wasn’t just the toys themselves that made the experience so special—it was the feeling. The familiar colors, the sounds, the little trinkets I’d forgotten I even loved… everything brought back warm memories of growing up. I caught myself smiling just looking at things I once treasured and thought I’d never see again. The store was well-organized, and the staff were incredibly friendly, clearly passionate about what they do. They didn’t just sell toys—they shared stories and memories with customers, making it feel more like a community than a business. This store isn’t just for kids—it’s for anyone who wants to reconnect with a simpler time. Whether you’re looking for something nostalgic or hoping to introduce the next generation to the magic of the classics, this place is a gem. I left with a few small items, but more importantly, I left with a full heart.
