Rune & Board

An outstanding local game store in all the ways a local game community can be outstanding. You read that correct, the fact this is a store that sells things is secondary to the value this location provides to the community.

This is the reason Rune & Board is so highly rated, and why everyone from the Portland area seems to want to get on the TriMet blue and come down here; to buy the things they could buy anywhere at Rune & Board.

Knowledgeable, informative and very friendly customer service. Found a wonderful game for my daughter, 'Here Kitty, Kitty' and my husband and son enjoyed the 40K tables. Great in store selection and a huge selection of tester games. :-)

Great gaming store with a wide selection of boardgames, tabletop to rpg books, dice, minis, cards... the list goes on!

You'll go in and see people playing boardgames and card games sometimes.

Parking is relatively easy and I've always found a parking spot within a block. Their employees are knowledge and friendly. The store is clean and their prices are fair.

This is my go to local gaming store even though there's technically closer stores to me!

My partner fave game store second thing she did when we got vr headset is go look at the store building in Google vr lol

Great game environment. Nice crew and happy to help. Nice people attend TGC events regularly. Over all by far the best game store I know.

Staff here are pleasant and attentive, very relaxing atmosphere and plenty of amazing games and decent sized play area.

best local game store - tons of options from affordable to collector’s items. everything you need for MTG, Warhammer & all the accessories in-between. best collection and even carry secret lair items. very reasonable prices. there’s always lots of events going on that are easy to keep up with if you follow the store instagram. easy to jump into games with inclusive and friendly people. nick and fox are kind, approachable and helpful!

One of my fav stores. Great energy in the store, great selection of gaming supplies, and great staff.

Amazing selection for D&D, Warhammer age of Sigmar, Warhammer 40k, and a countless number of board games. Warhammer 40k is usually my main focus when coming here and they have a great selection of any of the factions you might want to play as, either feom 40k or from the great Horus Heresy in 30k, as well as any paint you might want to detail your models with. the workers are very knowledgeable and it's always fun to chat about what techniques or tips either of us use for various models.

R&B is one of my all-time favorite game stores. The staff is always helpful and friendly, and they carry a unique selection of games and gaming accessories. If your friends or family love games, this is a fun place to take them. I highly recommend it!

It's a lovely game store with friendly staff. Their D&D, Magic, Miniatures, and board games are on point!

Just passing through town and enjoyed stopping in here. Some great deals in their clearance section!

Even with several wonderful shops throughout Portland, I still make time to travel to Rune and Board when I can. The staff is thoughtful and knowledgeable, able to help you find just what you're looking for to scratch that gaming itch. The community is large, friendly, and passionate (especially if you're looking for a game of EDH), and they host a variety of events all year.

Parking is ample on the weekends, and the MAX stop is less than a block away. It's walking distance to food and a bunch of lovely shops in downtown Hillsboro. This is a place I'm very happy to support when I can.

Great local shop with affordable prices! They have a clearance section with a variety of board games (which I personally haven't seen anywhere else) and they do sell Pokemon stuff. No singles though. They also host weekly events. Staff are all friendly and helpful.

Being in Portland for work, I was extremely bored on the weekend. I went to this store looking for a good solo game. Jay was quick to help me with a great suggestion and very polite. I had a wonderful experience here and am happy with Jay's suggestion. Would highly recommend this store. As an avid board gamer, this is one of the best game stores I have visited.

If you're looking for a fully stocked board/table-top gaming store, this is the place to be. The employees are friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. My son and I went due to the large assortment of miniatures they have for tabletop games. We were not disappointed.

Also have a few bookshelves filled with TTRPG sourcebooks. It's a wide selection of systems as well, so if D&D 5e isn't your thing, they probably have something that is.

While we weren't there for board gaming, they do have a very large selection of board games as well.

I moved to the area recently and attended my first Magic The Gathering prerelease event at Rune & Board over the weekend. It was an absolute delight. The store is filled with great products, has ample event space, and is clean and organized. The staff is extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming.

I look forward to attending more events here in the future and it will be my LGS of choice as long as I'm in the area. Highly recommended!

Great place, very friendly staff. Lots to look at from board games to take to table top.

I love this store! The staff is always helpful and friendly, and I never feel like I'm being spoken down to or belittled (as a woman, this is sometimes a problem within the gaming community). They carry several different brands of specialized paint and supplies for minis and terrain, which is also really nice.

Team was extremely cool and helped me find all I needed for my DM starter kit, very good selection of DnD stuff & anything else TTRPG related.
