About

Saltire Toys and Games on Pendleton Pike is one of Indianapolis's premier destinations for board games, card games, tabletop RPGs, and specialty games. With a 4.7-star rating from over 320 reviews, it has established itself as a trusted resource for families, hobbyists, and serious gamers alike.

What truly distinguishes Saltire is the caliber of staff knowledge. This isn't a store where games are simply stacked on shelves waiting to be grabbed — it's a place where the people working there have played what they sell and can speak intelligently about why a particular game is right for a particular family or age group. If you've ever stood in a toy store staring at boxes wondering which game will actually get played and which will gather dust, Saltire solves that problem.

The store carries an extensive inventory spanning cooperative games, competitive strategy games, quick-play party games, card games, and tabletop RPG starter sets. With hours running until 10 PM on Friday and Saturday, it's also one of the few game shops with evening hours convenient for working families. Whether you're a seasoned gamer looking for your next obsession or a parent hoping to find a game the whole family will enjoy on movie nights, Saltire is the place to go.
