★★★★★Featured review by Brayden

Me and my friend group came in late Thursday night, about two hours before closing. we played a couple games. the only employee there at the time was this guy named Jacob, he saw us having fun and offered to let us use the car he had (we were playing a racing game). we took him up on his offer and he stood behind us and gave us tips on how to play. he was really nice about it and later that night, he told me some stories about some people on the VR ride while some of my friends were playing it. He was extremely nice and an all round pleasant dude to be around. Jacob, if you're reading this, you're a legend mate. keep up the good work

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with primary-school-aged kids who enjoy arcade games and ticket collecting without spending heavily per play. The accessible pricing makes it easy to set a token budget and stretch it across multiple games. Families pairing it with a cinema visit at Event Cinemas get the most out of the trip.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Rooftop parking sits directly outside the venue — easiest entry point
⏰Step platforms around machines are already in place for shorter kids
đŸŽŸī¸Test a machine with one play before loading a large token balance
🚗Birthday packages include full game access — ask staff about current inclusions

“LOVED it! Games are mostly $2 which I think is so awesome. I saw some for $1 and another one for $3. I love that they have little steps around the arcade for the kids! It's not huge but it's enough to keep you occupied and I thought they had a great selection of games!”

“So much fun for the family $50 worth of tokens lasted us hours . I love the new machines you've put in. The kids love collecting their tickets and saving them up. I just wish the prizes weren't ridiculously over priced. After all it's all about the kids.”

“$20 worth of tokens will occupy a child for about an hour. This arcade is well maintained and staff are always available to help. The games are a good mix of genres, although I do wish they would get rid of the game of chance machines that are thinly veiled gambling. Convenient position and easy access to parking.”
