β β β β β Do not recommend. Absolute ripoff. Pricing is outrageous. Daylight Robbery. Games arenβt worth it. Go to Timezone. Get more for your moneyβ¦ and thatβs saying something.

β β β β β We visited on their first Saturday night open for a round of mini golf and some arcade games. Staff were super friendly, and Gary showed us around telling us about their upcoming plans for a bar and cafe - will definitely visit again in a couple of months to check this out and maybe play a VR escape room!

β β β β β VR attractions were great but not much else was good. Overall friendly staff except one worker who left our experience as a 2 star rating. Young female with blonde hairβ¦. Extremely rude and made comments that I think she was trying to be funny but they were just plain rude. Horrible employee to have there and very unprofessional. Made comments of a few of us being poor and her βnot getting paid enough to careβ to explain anything properly to us.

β β β β β Pleasant surprise. A new games place with a different take on games and fun. Big (Adult) and small kids can enjoy the neon mini golf painted with nostalgic themes including Donkey Kong and Mario. The abandoned eighties movie theatre and cryogenic chamber make for a back to the future meets stranger things atmosphere...minus the exploding rats ?? great staff and fun virtual reality games. My daughter had her party ?? here and it was certianly better value for money for every child involved who got a whoping 55 credits to play with . My neice won a large Chinese Klepto cat from the claw machine and motorbike and car rides were fun too. Bright Colours and music kept the vibe going and we got the party room for a little extra time because it was Sunday afternoon and noone else was booked in. A great time with good staff for a very good price. Considering the cost of birthday venues these days. Will be visiting again. 100/10 β€οΈ?????

β β β β β This place was mΔ«haro rawa atu! Awesome! Weβve been three times in the last few days & we think the staff are super friendly and fun people, the owner James is an awesome dude and a visionary, we loved the whole setup and vibe. The VR TAG is legit primo - we did the straight 6 mins for $15 each - itβs totally well priced for the experience and 6 mins in the game feels like 15mins easily - it was a work out! We played arcade games, won a soft toy and had a blast! Our mates enjoyed the mini golf too. ALSO!!! We got FREE FUN PASSES from the mall customer service desk - that gave us $5 credit at Oasis and a free popcorn and drink for our kids at the movies upstairs - bargin when you have a tonne of tamariki like us. NgΔ mihi team!

β β β β β The facebook video sure does this justice, but don't be fooled you'll leave feeling robbed. The arcade visuals and overall look is top notch but thats as far as the positives.
Pricing is absolutely bonkers, $15 for any of the main attractions (per person) e.g a family of 5 would pay $75 for a round of mini golf, VR, racing sim etc.
The arcade games are very spaced out which could be forgiven for a new buisness but instead of offering an entry level pricing they charge around $2.50 - $3 a credit, yeah I know we where shocked too. Many games had multiple people waiting as there wasnt enough to service the customer flow.
Prizes are again delusional in there pricing.
Overall, I wouldnt recommend and don't beleive there is anywhere close to value for money in comparison to other arcades

β β β β β Awesome atmosphere for both adults and kids, just make sure you have enough money to spend there cause most games (not arcade) are 15 pp. Happy Easter from me and mine
