Demo Games

You can try games before you buy them at Here Be Books & Games. There’s nothing worse than plunking down $50 for a game only to discover when you get it home, unwrap it and start reading the rulebook that it’s really not for you. We take the guess work out of finding the right games for you and your family and friends by maintaining a large and current Demo Game Library.

At Here Be Books & Games, you can:
- Ask for a game demo.
- Check out the board and bits.
- Browse the rulebook.
- We’ll even teach you how to play!
We know board games. We’ve played most of the games we stock on our shelves. So, we can make good recommendations based on your tastes. Think of all the money you can save by trying games before you buy them or by getting advice from someone who’s actually played the game.
