Visit websiteBeen many times before but was a little bit let down this time. So many game out of order and some that just glitched so gameplay was poor. The staff were helpful and friendly but felt they more interested in selling Pokémon cards rather that a arcade game experience
I love the concept of this arcade, you don't often see many places like this. However the last few times I've been, the machines are often faulty or sometimes just don't work. The guitar hero machine for example frequently lags behind or falls out of sync, with jammy buttons (or sometimes buttons that don't register). The dance battle machine behind it is also far too loud so you can't hear the music you're playing anyway. There are a neat collection of retro games though, star wars racing was super fun and there are quite a few older CRT machines, however the quality of them seems quite degraded and with a select few they are quite difficult to play given the faulty or non-functional controllers. I imagine it must be quite costly to maintain which is understandable. All in all it's not bad if you're stuck for ideas on what to do in the city and you want a variety of nostalgic games; personally speaking though, for £13.50pp I had hoped that some of the more popular or more modern machines were kept in better nick. Hopefully this will improve as I love the idea and I'd love to come back and support this place more! :)
An outstanding collection of retro arcade cabinets. The collection includes games from the beginning of the hobby onwards, all free to play after a single entry charge. Fabulous stuff.
£12 adult game pass for all these retro arcade games, you could order drinks as well got some tables and chairs to chill, very nice for some friends gathering or couple date. it also has Nintendo switch, Wii U, Xbox 360 etc definitely worth the price considering we normally spend £20-30 each at our local seafront arcades.
Superb retro arcade; a must visit. This is one of the best retro arcades I’ve visited in the U.K. A huge array of 80s and 90s arcade machines, across 2 adjacent stores. Gaming console games also available, to play on the big screen, in a multi-player format. Decent bar, with excellent background music. Payment is a via an all-day pass (£12 as at April 2025) which grants you full access across both stores and to play all games free, as many times as you want. You can come and go as much as you please, so allowing you to explore Norwich and come back a few times. (Wrist band, date stamped, grants access.) The only thing they need to get their hands on is Daley Thompson Decathlon and they’d be fixed.
