Game Experience and Arcade

Pros:

  • "It's not expensive to play. Lots of Bowling Lanes."

  • "The balls are all worn and no longer very 'round', meaning they often suddenly jump around randomly."
  • "The arcade section looked like they'd crammed it as close in together as possible."
  • "Bowling was fun but the gambling machines were broken and did not display my credit after I inserted 2 pounds."
  • "Large amount of lanes and conveniently late times but lacks a good enough arcade area."
