Wholesome packaging style
Board game arrived perfectly, but didn't expect the nice suprise of the packaging to be wholesome with a little extra snack and a handwritten note :)

Quick delivery. Very well packed. And a surprise mini bag of sweets - what's not to like? Can't comment on the game as it is a present.

Excellent service from the Gaming Circus!
Thank you Gaming Circus for the 1ST class service you provided on my recent order. From your wonderful website full of how to play clips and reviews to the excellent package I received my games. Nothing was left to chance meaning they arrived in perfect condition. Add the personalised note and bag of Haribo in my parcel, I couldn't ask for more. Will be certainly buying from them again. Thank you Gaming Circus!

I bought rolling heights board game and the new asterix card game.
Rolling heights was in their sale and was the cheapest I could find by far.
When I got home the delivery guy had chucked the box over my back fence and put a note through my door. It had rained all day.
Luckily it was well packaged and the games were dry.
Good price, quick delivery, well packaged.

A more personal experience
Items arrived on time and well packaged, with a handwritten note for a personal touch, along with a little bag of sweets.
Price-wise, it's comparable to the behemoth named after a river, and it supports a much smaller business. Top marks!

Helpful videos about games
From looking at the videos on their Instagram I knew I wanted to order a couple of new travel games to keep in my car. After listening to what our favourite game usually is, they recommended a great travel option. As a local business I chose to click and collect and my order was ready very quickly!
Thank you for the great service! We love our new games 😊
