Uncle’s Games

A Pacific Northwest gaming institution since 1978, housed in downtown Spokane’s historic Liberty Building alongside Auntie’s Bookstore — carrying board games, card games, puzzles, and an expansive demo library.

Uncle’s Games has been a pillar of the Pacific Northwest gaming community since 1978, and their downtown Spokane location in the historic Liberty Building is a destination in its own right. Nestled next to the legendary Auntie’s Bookstore and the restaurant Gander & Ryegrass, this shop offers Spokane’s largest selection of jigsaw puzzles, board games, playing cards, party games, dominoes, and chess. But it’s the demo library that truly sets Uncle’s apart — you can try out games before buying, turning a shopping trip into an afternoon of discovery. The shop runs a full schedule of events with open tables available anytime for casual play. The staff brings decades of collective gaming knowledge and is genuinely enthusiastic about matching you with the right game, whether you’re a hardcore hobbyist or buying a gift for a 10-year-old. Uncle’s also carries collectible card games including Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon TCG product. With a second location in the Spokane Valley Mall and a strong online community via their Discord server, Uncle’s has built an ecosystem that keeps gamers connected across the region.
