REVIEWS OF CompuSoft and The Game Store IN Red Deer

Clayton Howlett

Big variety of games, models, tabletop games, and paint. Also has a good selection of computer parts. I went in looking for an SLI cable, and they were able to dig one out for me, free of charge! I would go for here before a big franchise store.

Mark W

Friendly informed staff who answer question clearly, if your looking for almost any board game, puzzle, model, or gaming PC this is the place to go. If your just walking around looking around its a really cool place to check out. Lots of interesting things.

Eljae B

Neat store for computer parts and board games. Computer parts prices are a little high compared to online retailers but the board games, puzzles, and other things are fairly priced and comparable. This is the place to go if you're looking for that board game.

shawn lee

Fixed my computer fast and reasonably inexpensive. Very good customer experience

craig leblanc

I went in here during the week for some airbrushing info and i didnt have a lot of time before i had to be at work. These guys were fantastic. They didnt blow me off because i wasn't buying today. They were very knowledgeable and the experience was fantastic. FFW to today, i went back and bought the supplies i was after and they were great. They showed me everything about the airbrush i could ever need to know and set me up with all the fittings and everything i needed to get it going. Fantastic customer service and im really happy i got to support local and know that of i need anything or have questions which im sure i will, they will be there for me and more than willing to share their passion with me. Thanks guys.

Kiel Lang

Very knowledgeable staff and will help you till you have all questions answered

larry Roth

It's a great little place for board and card games as well as RPS. They also have a great selection of puzzles and models. There is a huge selection for Warhammer 40K. The team is fantastic. You are greeted when you enter, and as you browse they ask if they can help or assist in your selections. I personally had a great conversation with Leonard. Highly recommend this establishment for your gaming needs.

Liz & Bob Bloos

Big Shout out to Obed, What a top guy. He is not only very knowledgeable and professional but also such a likeable guy and he truly understands customer service, he goes above and beyond and he was invaluable to me getting me set up with an upgrade from laptop to desktop. I would highly recommend him and I hope his superiors know and appreciate what they have in him. Thanks again Obed. You're the best. Liz Bloos Red Deer AB.

Seamus W

Great place. We get all our computer stuff here. It's locally owned, not a box store, and it's nice to deal with people who actually know what they're talking about. Great service, great products too!

Svenja

Great people to go to, and the prices are actually pretty decent. Husband and I went for board games, some puzzles and trading cards and definitely spent less than going to other stores.

That GM Guy

Been a regular for years, and the staff has always been absolutely amazing. Full of great insight, super passionate about the work, and all around great folks. Definitely worth a visit, even if you just want some more dice.

Emmet Marshall

man these guys know their stuff, and are always on top with friendly, attentive service. I come here at least twice a week with my friend to buy more dice and minis because I have a problem. I havent bought computer parts in a while, but when I did, it was a good time.

Jared Nikonetz

Best paint selection and supplies in town, tons of models, games, friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable staff. Always happy to shop here.

Busser

Great selection for computer parts and they have them in Stock not like a big box store in red deer, prices are a little high and computer stuff, but the techs know what they are doing when they fix ur computer. also if ur into board, card games, models they have some there u nvr heard of. Worth stopping by and taking a look

Joseph Leyk

Excellent place to pick up puzzles, board games, tabletop miniatures (including warhammer, D&D and Pathfinder), scenery modeling supplies and model vehicles. They also have a great team on the computer side of things who can help you with problematic units, build your dream gaming rig, or even just sell you a tube of thermal paste to do some DIY repairs! These guys are the closest thing to Games workshop and memory Express you'll find without going to Calgary or Edmonton.

Bender716

I like this store because I'm a nerd who plays DnD, builds my own PCs, and pretty much everything else they sell here interests me. The people who work here are the same so that's cool.

Steve Blomme

My first experience with Compuserve. Had them repair one computer and build one gaming computer for one of my sons. I’m impressed….knowledgeable, gave me options, answered my stupid questions and then executed the repair and build in record time the week before Christmas. Definitely going back there for future computer needs. Special thanks to Jeff and the build/repair team. Awesome.

Misty Torgerson

Lots a selection!! I thought they were just computers so I hadn't been before. The girl at the front was super friendly and eager to help. I will definitely be back soon!

robert sephton

Very helpful staff and great selection of models. Went in there with my 5 year old to pick out a model and they were excellent and helped a great deal.

Hockey Mom

If you're looking for models for your kids, this is the place! Great selection and the guys are very helpful. Prices are maybe a bit high but still worth it for the selection and service.

Birddog

I had inquired about a sold out video card series. The 3080 couldn't be found online to buy, i emailed and asked if there was a waiting list i could be put on should they get some. They responded and l was told I'd be notified. 2 days later they responded that they had one for me, i was able to etransfer the full payment. I want sure if I'd make it into the shop after i finished work, however if it was a bit after their closing someone would wait to hand me the card. Very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Any pc gamers in Central alberta i would recommend checking them out before traveling to the bigger cities. They had quality inventory you'd be looking for.

Mark Edward Randall

Was having a rough time with some wifi issues. Not much of a tech person and had some questions about cables. The staff here are extremely helpful, things were explained in a clear manner, and the cable I purchased worked perfectly. Thank You!

Leigh-Ann Martin

Great service, very knowledgeable staff.

Shae-Lynn Schultz (Shae)

I absolutely love this store. Huge puzzle selection as I am a puzzle person. They have all sorts of things to computer stuff,model cars, board games , puzzles. This is the kind of store red deer needed. Plus everyone is so helpful and kind. Is a place I love to shop.

Micheal Chizmadia

The best gaming store in Red Deer. I go there regularly for all my tabletop needs and enjoy a good conversation with the staff every time. Never had a problem finding what I'm looking for, and when I wasnt even sure what I was looking for they helped narrow it down to the right item. Whether it be dice, war games, warhammer, dnd, or board games, this place is the place to go in Red Deer.

Ryan Carey

The most over priced store i think I've ever been in. Selling things for a 40% mark up from other retailers. Brutal. A few bucks sure. But 40%... for example my friend bought a 1TB Crucial SSD from them for 199$, exact same drive on Amazon 129$, mem express 143$. I'm all for shopping local when they aren't that much more expensive. They could have bought the drive from Amazon with free shipping and marked it up 20 bucks and that would have been better. But 70$... come on.

Laurence Cruz

They have lots of over parts and offer a variety of random stuffs , but the staffs aren’t all that friendly

Marissa Korth

The staff is great there, very friendly, and have a great variety of product. Honestly my favourite place to pick up anything pathfinder or board game related.

Dustin Lawtey

I've shopped here for years for board games and various computer parts. Didn't mind paying the markup because it was supporting local. Since the GPU shortage I've been calling weekly or more to try and get a modern GPU. I've got friends who know the staff personally and they get a heads up and get cards no problem when a shipment comes in. I'll call immediately after a friend is informed compusoft has cards in and the staff give me the same old " no we don't have any in and we don't do wait lists". I'm fully aware I'm being lied to about both, but never raise a fus. I'll not be shopping here anymore as hard to get products go to VIPs only apparently.

TriderFox

Their prices on pc parts are crazy $50 to $100 more than MemoryExpress or online alternatives. If your looking to upgrade better off looking elsewhere.

Kiefer Campbell

Usually the first and last place I check for PC parts.

Roger Bakes

I have been buying computers here for years -- for myself, my wife and my wife's family. I have found both the sales staff and technical services staff to be friendly, helpful and full of good information. I plan to keep on buying from this shop. While some of these reviews are complaints, their experiences do not reflect my own. I also like the computer department of London Drugs in Red Deer (where I buy Apple products). I am not being compensated or receiving favors from either outlet (nor would they likely know me as a person) but I feel good service should be recognized as much as poor service is. I would rather buy a computer from the vendor that built it and is always available and helpful rather than a brand name who lack personal service.

John Loney

Fun store. Excellent and friendly service. The stock changes frequently. Always see something new

Janice Lickers

Have done there twice now for presents for my youngest. I had no idea that D&D grew this much from when I played it as a kid(70s). The guys there actually take their time to explain. They show me things that are fabulous. I'm actually going there later today. Need to figure out Christmas presents again. Keep it up guys.

Karen Davis

This place is amazing. Such a fantastic selection of jigsaw puzzles (what we were shopping for) as well as board games (some of which i have never seen anywhere else). Very friendly staff, knowledgeable and helpful.

Jon Ramer

Friendly and professional. Needed another audio production PC. The build took a day and was affordable considering the quality I needed for the studio. Thanks guys!

Scott J Douglas

Absolute best computer shop in Red Deer! Very fast and staff very intelligent as well as absolute best service around! Such a pleasure to shop here! Seriously recommend

Mike

Lovely staff there. Even though I haven't purchased anything there they were helpful and had a professional attitude. Would recommend for new customers as well as encourage pre-existing ones to do business with them. Prices could be more competitive, but they weren't outlandishly out there either. Would recommend.

Dwight Hickey

Big box type store. Needs gaming area. Stock rotation is fairly slow. Friendly staff, very helpful, and kind. Decent prices. I've seen better, but I've seen way worse too. The best in Red Deer.

Tailspin Two

Best locally owned and operated computer, model, diorama suppies, computer gaming, D&D, puzzles, board games store. Awesome.

Cameron Bland

Great store with lots of board games and a good amount of niche hobby stuff. Fair prices for most things and great staff, great jigsaw puzzle selection, I almost always walk out with one every time I go

Mint Nirnroots

Walking into a store of this type and not being bombarded with D&D5e products was so refreshing. Picked up the Alien RPG corebook and the Cyberpunk Red Starter box. Staff was friendly and helpful. Store is clean and has a great variety of very cool products. My nerdness was very satisfied. Four out of Five Stars, would roll a d20 again.

Mark Cherkowski

This is a very dangerous place for nerds. There are a TON of board games (the good kind, not like Monopoly). There is a ton of modeling supplies, kits, paint, and other material for hobbyists. They have a large selection of miniatures, RPG material, and some collectables. They also have a bunch of gaming computer stuff, and misc PC parts. Prices are a little on the high side maybe but they are local, and they have a lot in stock so you can have it the same day, which is worth a few dollars to support a local business.

James Matthie

I bought a gaming computer here after returning a system from Alienware. The service, build quality, and prices at Compusoft were so much better. When you have a question, there is a local expert to help. Their selection of games, models, and paints is also extensive. This is a great local shop.

Eugene Keller

Great place to buy models cars planes tanks they have a huge variety and good pricing the staff is very helpful have a great command this place to go and have a look around if you're into it model building dirts dartboard and darts accessories great place to shop

Ben Oldham

Easily one of the best selections of games (board, card, dice, pen/paper, miniature, etc.) I have ever seen. The staff is always incredibly friendly and helpful and they are more than willing to do everything they can to get their hands on any item you might want.

Robert Mudde

The game selection here is the best in Red Deer with the best informed staff ever. They pull stats and ratings for you online, and try and make sure you have the best purchase that suits you. I looked to see if I could get a better deal on a particular game online and I couldn't. Theses guys were cheaper by $5. They have models, role-playing kits, and three huge walls of board games. Not to mention all their computer stuff.

Zach Klassen

Love this place, excellent selection of games and puzzles! The staff are awesome, very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful! Reasonably priced, and even if their product is a bit more expensive than online (which is rarely the case), I'd rather spend a couple bucks more getting games and dice from them.

Stock Reaper

People say not to go there online, but I had bent chips on my CPU and it wasn't working anymore, I brought my PC there to finish the build. They finished the build, fixed my CPU and made it work instead of just saying it's broken and sell me a new one. Took the guy two hours to fix that CPU. The amount that I paid was more than fair and they saved me from paying another $500 for a new CPU. Plus I told them I would be able to install windows myself and update the drivers myself, but the tech did it anyways. No complaints and contrary to what people say online, the prices are fair.

Davey Greenley

Had my Pc custom built here a couple months ago, staff were friendly and experienced. I would recommend anyone looking to up grade or replace their PC to shop here!

Drew “Dusty Mtl” Doyle

Great store! Friendly staff, decent prices. Lots to chose from, board games and to scale toys. Paints, computer components, repair services. A great store!

Peter R

Great selection of board games! They also have random roleplaying games and computer parts if you're into that. Cool store to browse, always great service and they had the computer screw I needed and gave it to me for free!

J

These guys are great to deal with! They are friendly and helpful. They will advise you, without pushing a sale of something you don't need or want. They have a really good selection of components, PC's etc. I love the new location they are at as well. Easier to get to and better parking. They also have more room. I would like to see them expand their stock a tad but otherwise this is a great store!

AviatorDude

Amazing store. They are always so knowledgeable and willing to make sure i get the best quality parts for my PC. And when they say it will be done in 1-3 days it's always safe to assume it will be done the next day.

Carson O

Large selection if board games with good prices. Lots of figures and geek things. Great place to be at to find gifts for yourself!

jay long

I recently bought a Gaming pc from Compusoft and it has been a great experience. I had a some very annoying sounds coming from it and compusoft stopped at nothing to fix it. The service on my new computer was fast and well done. Haveing faulty parts isn't there fault it's mainly the manufacturers. The two computer techs there are amazing and always will to help no matter what with any question or concern. If you are thinking of buying a gaming pc from compusoft I highly recommend it. The quality is outstanding and is going to be better then any pre built you can buy from Best buy by far.

Franciska Elle Bakker Sephton

This store has EVERYTHING! Very well priced and helpful. I was in the store for maybe half an hour and was offered assistance from each employee. Even just walking through the door was a pleasure. Seriously. Go there. Games, Puzzles, Model building supplies, accessories and way more.

Mark Olsen

helpful, knowledgeable staff and exceptionally well organized inventory. a huge selection of models in various scales and all the tools, putties, and paints you could ever ask for. all vetted by people who use and appreciate quality products.

Sons of Arnor

Excellent store and very helpful-knowledgeable staff. Games are priced a little high but they have a very large selection.

Megan

Love this place. We buy all our models here. The board game selection is really good as well as paints and accessories! Very good customer service as well. Lots of great ideas and different ways to use your paints! Will continue to shop here for our gaming and hobby needs!!

Scott Jamieson

When you first enter the store you are greeted by an employee who makes you feel welcome but doesn't try to pressure you in any way. The store layout is done in a logical manner and it is not hard to find what you may be looking for. If you have any questions about what you need, the employees are definitely knowledgeable about what they sell.

Khaladras

Check the prices before you buy hardware from here. As of this review they're selling a video card at near release price, a full ~70% markup over Newegg and Memory Express. I'm not saying avoid them unconditionally, but I strongly recommend checking your facts over any amount you'd lament losing.

Joab Jamieson

A hobbyist Wonderland for anyone with even a budding knowledge of anything fun. Whether it comes to PC gaming, dungeons & dragons, puzzles, board games, and so much more. Even wandering around the place that fills you with a whimsy and professionally from the multitude of products.

Cristian Pinzaru

Amazing customer service and prices. We were able to swap the parts from an Alienware R10 into a H710 and add a 360mm AIO. CPU went from 100°C under max load to 72°.

Michael Zufferli

Good selection or paint and model supplies. Really informative staff when it comes to colors and painting techniques. Way more reasonably priced cards for Magic and Pokemon than Walmart or Chapters or EB games. Do yourself a favor and purchase them here.

Brian Vossen

Enormous selection of tabletop games and DICE! Staff generally leave you alone but are ready to help if needed (a style of service I like). Always enjoy shopping here!

Tamara Borley

Amazing store, tons of games and a Dungeons and Dragons players Dream land. They also carry Models and more. 100% worth the stop and shop.

Deren Nickerson

Great selection of board games, card games, puzzles, and more! If you're into model building, look no further! Warhammer? Look no further! Computer components? They have everything the nerd in all of us could ever want!

Steven Cleall

Excellent staff. Knowledgeable both in the game/hobby side as well in Compusoft. Yes maybe there prices may be higher than the chains, but I will pay the extra for the service and expertise. Also remember the box stores will sell you what they want you to have. Compusoft will sell you what you need.

Randall Mullin

You pay more for components compared to buying online but the service makes it worth it.

Lisa Krenn

We got a gaming laptop here and the staff was really helpful when we had questions. They have a huge selection when it comes to dices, paint and figurines. In addition, they also carry board games and other gaming equipment. From chairs, to keyboards, headsets and monitors.

Christina G

My husband and I entered this store without our masks; immediately upon entrance an employee asked us to put them on, which we had absolutely no problem with and did so right away. He then mumbled a bunch of stuff under his breath about people not wearing masks and laughed rudely about the situation. We decided at that point we’d rather just shop somewhere else and I mentioned I really didn’t like the laughing/mumbling. He then sharply and loudly responded “well we don’t like YOU” … honestly, obnoxious behaviour and we won’t be going back here again. Apart from that unnecessary altercation, they’re also very overpriced.

Mark Warkentin

Fantastic selection of board games and puzzles. Knowledgeable staff helped me fix a complex computer issue as well.

Cam Woz

I’m in the middle of building an expensive gaming table. And wasn’t sure about the availability on a very large grass mat (100inch x 50)) they had no issues try ing to cypher my wrong part numbers for it and found what I was looking for. Pleasant ,easy to deal with and quick. Wish I got the employees name thank you for your help

Ethan Borle

They've got a great selection of games, puzzles, computers and accessories. I much prefer to go to a local store like this then a big box store as well.

jim patterson

4 out of 5 stars because the selections of paints, model kits and landscaping supplies are fantastic. Just over priced on some kits, especially the 1/700 scale ships. Should not cost you $6 per inch of plastic.

Matthew Kuehne

Can I just use ????‍♂️ emogi and call it good? This place is pretty meh, and if you are going there for trading cards or board games know that there are FAR better options in town. On the computer side of things they're pretty awesome. Prices and selection are good, and they won't sell you trash.

Cayd Neilly

Comp U Soft always has great customer service. When ever I go in there I am always greeted with a "hello" and a friendly smile. The staff are knowledgeable and personalable. All in all they are an amazing business, Thanks Comp U Soft!

Callum S

I had to change my review from a 2 star to a 4 star. Not sure if they saw my review and fixed the problem but their Pokémon and trading card selection has gotten a bit better. They might not have inventory all the time or much of it when they do but the prices are very fair compared to a lot of other places. I would recommend this store. Friendly staff non the less

Cale Green

Where to begin....they helped me get ahold of the new AMD graphics card and processor for my first build. And when I had issues getting the system to post I was able to drop it off and by noon the next day they had fixed the issue, even though they were very busy. When I came to pick it up they took the time to show me where I had made the mistake so that I would know for any future builds. In addition they also corrected the ram speed and installed an update free of charge. These guys worked fast, were super helpful, and went above and beyond what I expected for service for a very fair price. Definitely will be going to them if I ever need something in the future. Oh and I got some DnD stuff there as well.....

Leah Elliott

If I could choose zero I absolutely would. Absolutely rude to my 9 year old that saved his birthday money for a model. Disgusting.

Darcy O'Dell

Friendly, knowledgeable staff that truly care for their customers. I'm impressed at the level of service each one of the employees gives and how far they go for their customers. This is my new place to shop at for anything PC related.

Antonio Mance

I brought my pc to Obed for service and he got it fixed. He's very friendly and professional. Other staff are friendly as well. I will definitely recommend this store

Erik Strong

Fixed my PC super fast! Estimated it to be done in 2 days and they had it completed within hours of bringing it in! 11/10 would goof up my pc build again to have their services!

S. H. (Crocheted Nana)

The most helpful friendly staff. Fixed a computer issue quickly. A bonus to find they have the largest selection of jigsaw puzzles I have ever seen.

Chris Joyce

Helpful and polite staff always go out of their way to help me out, Klod is the man when it comes to information on RPG's and always takes the time to connect with his customers. Always a good time, support this local business before looking online, you wont be disappointed.

Gerald Carr

Great store! Very clean, super helpful and friendly staff! My now go to store for all my PC and boardgame needs!

Alkhemist 95

If you're looking for newer GPUs and CPUs you may as well try other stores. The staff here doesnt seem to care about the locals coming to them for service. The guy who orders parts wont even accept people backordering any GPUs and CPUs. I guess it's too much work for him cause he wont be able to stand around and talk with a coworker. It's not like I'm the one losing my business if no one comes through the doors. The store is having some sort of identity crisis. It doesnt know whether it wants to be a dnd/warhammer/collectible store or a computer store which makes the visit very confusing.

Griffin Sand

Always friendly, always have an amazing selection of models and tools. Best place for Hobbyists to take a stop off at.

Sean Bertoncini

Good customer service. Respectful and friendly. Vast amount of board games, models and an array of other fun nick knacks to take a look at. More than enough to spark anyone's interest.

nick gurov

got a corsair k55 keyboard for 115 dollars after I got it home I found average price of it being 80 dollars on multiple web sites. I got ripped of. and when I was looking around all of the computer parts were at least 30 dollars more then suggested msrp. I don't recommend buying pc parts here. I will be returning this product and buying a step up model for the same price.

Alex Swenson

The selection of board games and figures is quite good, but prices on PC components are not competitive with online markets.

Mackenzie Clews

Very knowledgable staff. I went in to talk with someone regarding a gaming PC, and get all of the basics (literally, asking what makes on processor better than another, why RAM is needed, etc.), and the gentleman was very helpful, and spent over an hour with me walking through what all the components are, how it all works, and what I would need to get started. Very, very helpful.

Cody Nilsson

Love this place. Very knowlegable, helpful staff and great selection of computer parts. I haven't dabbled in the hobby section much but they have lots to offer! Prices on some items seem a bit much but that is expected with the economy nowadays. Tis it

Eugene Lund

One of the best stores in central/Southern Alberta for plastic models and board games. Friendly helpful staff and competitive prices make it worth the trip from High River.

Conrad Cherrington

One of the few places in red deer equipped to sell tabletop games and accessories which is disappointing as they seem to charge quite a premium for that fact. Order online and save yourself at least 20%. As a plus the staff is knowledgeable and friendly.

William Quamme

Great employees here willing to help with most everything. Fairly good custom builds for gaming PCs. Slightly higher prices on individual components than most other places though.

Ryan Best

Best place in town for all you gaming computer and board game needs. Great selection and friendly staff!

Tina Howard

We shopped at the game store side if this business. Great selection of games and books. The people are so friendly..

Sarah Desdemona

I love the huge selection of card and board games. Wish I had more money to spend here.
