Took my best mate here who gets overstimulated in large crowds. Kind and compassionate staff and an atmosphere that is welcoming to all. We loved the guitar hero game and my mate absolutely bossed it. Only thing is some of the controllers were a bit buggy, I think due to extended and hard competitive use but barely detracted from the experience. Game on!

Me (50yo) and autistic gaming nerd nephew (18) enjoyed our morning gaming session. Enjoyed the duo dance machine & sega car games. I enjoyed the few shooting games (would have loved to have seen time crisis there ), old skool classics like street fighter, TMNT 4 player, and Tekken 2, even older, nostalgic PAC man and donkey Kong, space invaders yet very basic and boring for nephew. Thank Allah for the sonic & mario games on various platforms for him Staff were attentive and friendly Parking nearby ( have to dodge around the wino's though) Agree with some of the neg feedback about: ¹ lack of history of the games ² lack info on how to play more of the educational section of games at the back ³ relatively limited selection of games and I got bored just under 2hr mark, nephew wasn't more importantly Overall, for £12 for both of us, was a great morning session and would go back

This place was a very unique and different kind of family activity and i'm glad we finally took our 7 year old gaming nerd for the experience. The games that were on offer to play were really good and the odd practical activity was available. You also get plenty of time with three hours to enjoy your time. I must admit there was an overwhelming negative though, and that's other visitors hogging time up on certain games. We was waiting to play gang beasts and smash bros brawl but the same people just set up there for the whole three hours which didn't allow others to take a turn of said games. I don't get why you would pay for a full arcade/museum experience then sit and play the same game for three hours?! Just go home and buy the game at that point! They could maybe do with having some staff keep an eye out for anyone being selfish and stopping others from trying a lot more of the games on offer. Otherwise it was a fun experience which I would recommend to any gaming enthusiast big or small. Just be aware of other people ruining the fun.

I had a good time but the museum walks a strange line between interesting games, classics and console games. They are grouped thematically like Sonic or Mario games or driving games ( they had micromachines for the ps1 with the thingy to plug 4 controllers, so many memories), also taken 2. I would have liked more arcade machines and fewer consoles to be fair. Also, it probably is a good museum to visit with someone else as a lot of the games would be better played in two player mode.

We went to here today, which is a Saturday, it. Cost us £14 entry on the door, which we were worried it wouldn’t be worth it originally having never gone before, but as soon as we went in we loved it! I would say definitely make sure you have at least 3 hours free time, as we had a dinner booked at 4 and got there at about 2:20, and sadly didn’t get everything we wanted done. On a Saturday especially as it did get a fair bit busier as the day went on, morning may be a better session! The staff were so friendly, definitely made a great first impression before even going in, always a nice welcome to be welcomed to friendly faces! Honestly it’s definitely somewhere to visit, not sure if it’s the kind of place you could go often though as it’s generally all the same games. Also has a good small merch shop!
