Ordered two items to be shipped to Canada...arrived in good time and communication with Diversions was excellent! A real stand-out in customer service! Thank you to Ian and the staff!

Would recommend Diversions to anyone! My family is really into board games and every time I hear of a new one I want to try, Diversions already has it in stock (or is willing to order it!). I recently called about a game I wanted to get as a Christmas gift, it was out of stock, but the woman who answered my call said she would make sure it was on order and less than a week later, I have the game in hand! They definitely keep up with trends and the staff is incredibly friendly. They've offered me suggestions for games based on other ones my family has enjoyed and have never steered me wrong. Cool store, great selection, friendly staff, and the good feeling of shopping local!

Called Diversions looking for a very specific puzzle (size, subject) for a friend facing a health challenge. Laura responded quickly and found a puzzle that totally fit the bill! Sent it to my friend who was thrilled! Great service!! Would recommend this store without reservation!

I attended Diversion's game nights almost weekly for quite a few years. I also tried to attend other events they held throughout the year. I am lucky to have such a great board game store so close by. What's not to like about this place?

Extensive and updated demo games to try out any time for free? Check. Friendly and knowledgeable staff? Check. Welcoming people during game night? Check. Exciting events throughout the year? Check.

I could go on and on but this is by far, one of my favorite places to go. As far as I'm concerned, Diversions is a staple in the seacoast that everyone should at least visit once. Learn about everything they have to offer, whether it is the tons of events they host and collaborate with local businesses, board games for all types of people, or a wide variety of puzzles to suit your needs. Diversions has it all and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Have great events. Participated in a blind puzzle race, and had a ton of fun! They really know their stuff too, Ian helped me find a great game for a gift for my family.

We really love Diversions! We've been coming here for years and love their selection. The downstairs where you can try different games is really great and the staff is fantastic! Best board game store around!

This is the best game shop around. I can't help but leave with a new game every single time I go in because they have such fun selections. Not only do they have games, but they have a huge selection for puzzles too. The staff is always super nice and they are very knowledgeable, especially in their suggestions. If you haven't been here you are seriously missing out.

Such a great store. We stop in every time we’re in Portsmouth. There are great staff recommendations and games of all genres. My son has placed a few special orders and Diversions always gets the item in quickly. I love their puzzle selection, especially the Charlie Harper ones. Always organized. Always clean. Always inspiring.
