Fortress of Gaming in Albany, NY

the staff are super nice and make you feel welcome as someone who has really really bad anxiety it’s nice. Shout out to the worker who’s a judge ( shame on me for not remembering their name ) it was them who made me feel the most welcome and comfortable there which allowed me to start Makeing new friends so thank you…

An amazing place to go if you're into board games, card games, tabletop games, wargaming, etc. I drive an hour and a half to get here just to play at Magic events. Love this store. They also have a café that sells snackies and drinks. Bright, warm, large, inviting space to hang with friends & play some cool games.

I was visiting the area for the weekend and decided to give this place a look. The parking leaves a little bit to be desired, but the actual facility itself is wonderful! When you first walk in, the store area itself feels a little on the smaller side, but is super well-stocked with a ton of cards for various games.

I visited for the first time last Friday and everyone was really friendly. The staff helped me pick my first Magic the Gathering decks and I got a Fallout themed card holder that I was THRILLED about. The person working the cafe was really nice and brought the food I ordered to me.
