Games Shops in Berlin
This list was taken from r.g.b in 2001 so I don't know how up to date it is. I do remember that the
Karstadt store at Hermannplatz is only 5 minutes walk from the
Spielbrett shop in Körtestr. I also remember that the "big box" games were cheaper in the department stores than in the specialist games stores.
•
Spielbrett Körtestr. 27, 10967 Berlin
Phone +49-30-6924250
Nearest Underground station: Südstern (U7)
Excellent range of German games plus a few imported games. And they know what they sell, too! Probably the best of the Berlin shops. Usually a bit more expensive than department stores, though.
•
Spielbrett Berliner Str. 132, 10715 Berlin
Phone +49-30-8731535
Nearest Underground station: Blissestraße (U7)
2nd shop of same company.
•
Serious Games Bundesallee 83, 12161 Berlin
Phone +49-30-85962903
Nearest Underground station: Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz or Walther-Schreiber-Platz (both U9)
Large shop, German games plus a good range of imported games. Mainly, though, role-playing and tabletop games. Also comics and paraphernalia.
•
Kreatiwiti Spieleantiquariat Parkcenter, Am Treptower Park 14, 12435 Berlin
Phone/Fax +49-30-6232937
Nearest station: Am Treptower Park (S4, S6, S8, S9)
Excellent little shop- they have a large stock of German boardgames (used, plus a few new ones) and are prepared to do mail orders. No catalogue because of the quick turnaround of stock. Definitely worth a visit. Shop used to be closed on Mondays- maybe it still is.
•
Comics und Spiele Baruther Str. 10, 10961 Berlin
Phone +49-30-6943855
Nearest Underground station: Mehringdamm (U7)
Used German games and comics. Impressive supply in a dusty cellar shop- don't be afraid, just dive into it. Also CCG "stock exchange".
•
Beutelsend Karl-Marx-Str. 30 (corner of Reuterstr.), 12043 Berlin
Phone: +49-30-62370-60, -66
Nearest Underground station: Hermannplatz (U7)
Specializing in role-playing and tabletops, but also some imported games that fit into the range. Also fantasy books in German and English language. Staff knows what it sells, too.
•
Drachenschmiede Schönleinstr. 29, 10967 Berlin
Phone +49-30-69042017
Nearest Underground station: Kottbusser Damm/Schönleinstr. (U8)
Probably the best supplier for the LARP addict, and run by such. Everything you need, including beverages like mead.
•
Grumpf Brunowstr. 10, 13507 Berlin (Tegel)
Phone +49-30-4339605
Role-playing games.
•
Department Stores (e.g. Karstadt, Hertie, Wertheim, KaDeWe) Most of them also also carry a reasonable range of current German games, and sometimes you can find real bargains there. I'd recommend a visit to the Karstadt store at Hermannplatz (underground U7) and to Hertie at Karl-Marx-Str. (underground Rathaus Neukölln, U7).
Hope this helps.
