EndGame is a comic book store in Oakland, California. The store sells board games, card games, and miniature figures.

History
Endgame was founded in 2001. Founder Aaron Lawn, a data analyst, opened the store after losing his job during the dot-com crash. In 2004, Endgame moved into the old Swan's Market building in the historic district Old Oakland. This move was followed by a nine-month construction project aided by a redevelopment grant by the city of Oakland. In March 2014, Endgame announced a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for $25,000 to turn the abandoned storefront next door into the Endgame Cafe. It received $21,000 in the first 24 hours.

In September 19, 2016, nerd-folk musical duo The Doubleclicks and musician Lucia Fasano (Portlandia, Catty B's) played at EndGame as part of their Snakes On The Radio concert tour.
