All online orders are processed from our dedicated warehouse. We take great care to ensure your ordered items are securely packed before shipment. Whenever possible, we reuse cardboard boxes from our suppliers, though we also utilise new boxes and wrapping materials when necessary.

For orders placed before 1:30 PM, Monday through Friday, we aim to dispatch them on the same day. If this isn’t feasible, they will be sent out on the next working day. Orders placed outside of our office hours (Monday to Friday) will be dispatched the following working day.

We offer free delivery on orders totaling £65 or more. For orders under £65, delivery charges are as follows:

• £4.50 for Royal Mail Tracked 48 (delivery within 2-3 business days)

• £6.00 for Royal Mail Tracked 24 (delivery within 1-2 business days)


Please note that shipping times are estimates and not guaranteed. Occasionally, unforeseen circumstances beyond our control may cause postal delays. In such cases, we cannot accept responsibility and will not issue refunds for shipping fees.

At this time, we do not offer shipping outside the UK.

At checkout, you will have the option to collect your order from our cafés in either Oxford or Bath, allowing you to avoid the shipping charge. We will notify you by email once your order is ready for collection. Please allow up to 3 days for orders to be available at the Oxford location and up to 7 days for the Bath location.

Orders will be held for a maximum of 21 days before being returned to our warehouse.

Important Notes: 

1.   Meeple Stars can be earned on retail merchandise purchased through both our webstore and café shop.

2.   Most of our prices include VAT at 20%. Meeple Stars are not earned on the VAT
portion of the price. For example, if you buy a game for £50, you’ll earn Meeple Stars on the net amount of £41.67 (the remaining £8.33 goes to HMRC), which would give you 125 Meeple Stars.

3.   Cover charge payments and food and drink purchases at the café do not qualify for
Meeple Stars.

4.   Meeple Stars can be redeemed either during webstore checkout or when purchasing games
at the café. Each discount can only be applied to a single purchase. If the value of the item is less than the discount amount, the remaining balance will be forfeited.

5.   Discounts cannot be used for shipping costs, only for merchandise.

A Classic, get it whilst you can.

Certainly a classic in Gaming terms, and whilst some of its ways have since been bettered by newer games it is certainly still worth getting hold of if you can.

The Base game alone offers a LOT of gameplay, plenty of fun tough scenarios, one off or campaign, lots of replayability with the different roles that come in the base box.

Expansions are far to expensive now this is out of print, although you can still pick up a bargain now and then (I managed to get Nerekhall and Bilehall for under £100 both new - I was lucky!) However the Base game itself without any expansions will give you a ridiculous amount of content.

I was expecting to enjoy the game but perhaps not as much as I did, not only that my kids always ask to jump in for a quick scenario against the evil Dungeon Master (me)....

Absolute gem of a game and well worth its classic status, easily one of my top 10 games of all time.

A classic, get it if you still can.

Sadly the second edition of Descent is no longer actively in print, meaning finding a good price copy of the base and expansions is becomming impossible.

Luckily Thirsty Meeples had the Base available and it was bought without hesitation.

The game is wonderful, it becomes so much more with all the extras you can buy, but the base set alone will give you days and days (months) of fun. Add the brilliant App that adds an AI Dungeon Master and it extends that playtime indefinately.

Just pure fun, great concepts, great replayability due to the mix of characters and monsters at your disposal.

The models are fantastic, they are begging to be painted and well worth doing so.

Cannot rate this highly enough, especially now as you can even manage a campaign solo.

Just a shame that so many of the excellent additions are no longer available (apart from Ebay and its inflated prices) but there are still a few deals to be had.
