About
HRAS — the World of Board Games and Puzzles — is exactly the kind of specialty shop that board game enthusiasts dream of finding on a trip: a dedicated, knowledgeable, well-stocked store where the staff actually play the games they sell and can make genuine recommendations based on your family's specific situation.
The selection covers the full range of modern board gaming: family games for mixed-age groups, cooperative games that work well for younger children, strategy games for older kids and teens, party games, and a strong puzzle selection across difficulty levels. Czech editions of popular international titles (Catan, Ticket to Ride, Wingspan, and dozens more) are often available at prices that compare favorably to what you'd pay in Western Europe or North America.
For families who travel with board games or enjoy them at home, a stop at HRAS is both practical and enjoyable. You can browse at your own pace, ask for recommendations, and potentially find a new favorite game at a good price — one that becomes a lasting reminder of your Prague trip every time you play it.
Puzzles deserve special mention: they travel well, they work for a wide age range, and they're excellent for rainy days both during and after your trip. A Czech-designed puzzle from HRAS makes a more interesting souvenir than most tourist-area alternatives.
Staff recommendations are genuinely useful — describe your family size, ages, and preferred game complexity, and they'll point you toward something you'll actually enjoy.
