For over 25 years…
Our family-friendly arcade is great fun at a great price for daycares, church youth groups, homeschool groups, school field trips, birthday parties, and sports teams!
We have over 100 games, both the latest arcade games on the market and the old-school favorites you played as a kid. Each of these games can be played with nickels on your Nickel Card. Our games range from 1-8 nickels per game, so just 5 cents to 40 cents per play!
