Luck Factory Games — Local services in Concord

We stumbled upon Luck Factory in April of 2022 while visiting from the Atlanta area. My husband and I have played board and card games in the past so it sounded like a fun store to browse. That’s all we initially thought we’d do- browse. Well , we ended up spending hours here on our first visit and had such an amazing time! Nick, the owner explained the store and table reservation system and the system for asking for help with a game. If you’re not sure what kind of game you’d like and are open to suggestions he has an ingenious 3 question quiz for you to help you find that perfect game. We ended up learning Wingspan , King of Tokyo , and a few others that day and brought home a giant bag of new games. I am not exaggerating when I say this spontaneous visit to Luck Factory was the origin story to our current board game obsession and now we host monthly game nights back home. If we didn’t live 4 hours away we’d absolutely be VIP Members! One thing you need to know - this place is special. Since returning to the Atalanta area we’ve scoured our area for something similar and while we’ve found a handful of places absolutely nothing compares to Luck Factory and how welcome we feel there , the level of help we can get if we need it , the friendliness of everyone who works there and the HUGE library of games to play. They are very family friendly ! The places near us all are fine but each lacks something. Either they cater solely to RPGs (we couldn’t even get anyone to talk to us at one place bc we didn’t apparently fit the look of their target customers) , or another place with super friendly people and large library but no one to help you learn new games, or lastly just a big store with only one tiny shelf of games to play. So clearly Luck Factory is a gem and if you’re LUCKY enough to have this near you (or if visiting the area like we were) please go check them out. Even if you feel intimidated about learning a new game , Nick and his staff are such good teachers the way they explain things. You can learn simple or complicated games and be successful! To this day some of the games we learned at Luck Factory on that first visit and in subsequent visits since are still are go-to favorites- Wingspan, King Of Tokyo, Five Tribes , Splendor, Quacks of Quedlinburg and more. We joke that it’s both good and bad that we live 4 hours away. Seriously go . Just go. Take a friend , take your family. Meet Nick, answer his 3 questions and find your next...

When we had first discovered this place we were in heaven. Something near our house to escape to. We were told that magic players got free entry friday and Saturday nights. So that following weekend my girlfriend and I came and had a blast playing magic with strangers. We bought beers and took home some goodies from the counter. A couple weeks later we came back with our family for another fun night. We played magic, bought beers and as we were closing our tab the total came out to nearly double what we had paid the previous time. We asked why and the lady said it was because of the entry fee. We said that we were magic players(expecting she'd give us the free pass like she had done the weeks prior) nope. She looked at us like we were crazy and trying to scam her. Keep in mind this is the same woman who told us about free magic nights.....as a customer I felt lied to, manipulated, and cheated. I had bragged to people about this place and was beyond excited to being the family. Never again. If the free Magic night was limited then say that. Pretending like it was never a thing is just plain wrong. Yall need to figure out whats real and what's not. Lying to a customer to promote your business is...

An amazing game store always kept tidy, with extremely friendly staff. I come here specifically for dnd. It's a bit of a drive for me but so worth it. It's the only game store I've found that run consistent dnd games and they are very newbie friendly. The first time I showed up to a game a few months ago I had no character, no dice, no experience, and I was 20 minutes late, but Steph went with it in stride giving me a character sheet, one of the other players had extra dice they let me borrow and everyone helped me through the process of learning to play. Even if everyone else is a higher level they will try to accommodate you with giving you some hits without taking damage or a special ability to help you stay in the game or they will let you know if you should prepare a higher level character if you talk to them in their discord server. That's were all the rsvps for their game nights are anyways. There's also food and drinks. The food comes from one of the restaurants upstairs and there is a Veggie burger available for vegetarians. Lots of non-alcoholic options to drink as well. The space feels very inclusive and welcoming. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I look forward to...
