    Playing with the pinball machine
    Jazmin V.

    If you are a video game fanatic of all genres and love the 80s, I highly recommend this business! My hubby and I paid $24.00 to play video games from the 80s for as long as we wanted! They also had another section of the room that was dedicated to pin ball games! This did take quarters, but each pinball machine did not run more than .50 cents. They did have gender neutral restrooms. The establishment was clean. They also had a foosball table..1.00. And an air hockey table 1.00. Loads of other machines too! If you want to kill some time or just goooo baaaack in time, check this place out. The older gentleman that charged us, was a super cool dude! Thank you for an awesome experience!

    Amazing place, lots of fun and memories. The World needs more of the '80's, what a great time to be alive. Actually when you and friends would hang out all afternoon playing games with each other. Super helpful staff, I hope places like this are around FOREVER! We'll be back!

    Wooden stools are placed throughout for those long plays...

    Totally awesome! Relive the best of the 1980's in this throw-back arcade. One side is loaded with the best cabinet and table games; all set to free-play mode. You can finally master Xevious without spending months of allowance in quarters! The other side is packed with coin-op pinball and other games. They also have a couple of 80's living room setups playing VHS movies on console TVs. We had a blast. This is a great place to spend a few nostalgic hours of fun

    So awesome! Wholesome fun for all ages! Highly recommend!!! The owner was so kind and so helpful! $12 to play unlimited arcade games then all pinballs are $.50 each! Great selection and price!

    We had a rainy afternoon during our recent Branson trip and happened upon the 1984 arcade. For $10 a person we spent the whole afternoon playing a variety of games together and solo. Even my 68 year old dad had fun playing games and then relaxing on the couches and watching VHS tapes on the old console Tv! Fun and nostalgic!

    Absolutely fabulous time here today with our family. The kids (8 & 5) had to basically be dragged out after 4+hours of play. Pinball machines are fantastic and the variety of other games was impressive. We all found a few that were easy to obsess on for a while! Will definitely be back.

    Excellent service, the burgers and fries and the best! The kids have lots to do here, even karaoke…read more This is a hidden gem in Branson.

    This is a small nostalgic museum with neat little cafe. They have a few parking spots out front,…read morebut it can get a little tight. We decided to get a quick bite to eat in the cafe before exploring the museum. It is an 80s themed cafe with a full bar with seating, booths and tables. There is also a stage that has Alvin and the chipmunk statues on it. We got some of their pretzel bites and nachos. We also got some of their fun themed adult beverages to wash our apps down. The bartender/waited was awesome. He was very friendly and helpful. He had tons of personality. We then went over to the museum. I think the food in the restaurant and admission was a bit over priced, but it is Branson. The first floor of the museum has classic arcade games that are set to free play, so you can play them as much as you like without having to put in a quarter. There are also some photo ops with Simpsons, E.T., Maverick (Top Gun), Darth Vader, Indiana Jones, and the Terminator statues available. You will find the cashier, a couple of escape rooms and a gift shop (which did not have much) on this floor as well. On the way up the stairs you will come across a Bill and Ted mannequin and a pay phone, which I enjoyed showing my kids. On the second level, which is dimly illuminated, is where the fun happens. You will find more escape rooms up here, a small cosmic miniature golf course, and cool movie theater that plays 80s movies. They were playing Gremlins while I was there and they had Gremlin mannequins in the front row. I went through the hunted house and even though they did not have any live characters, and I knew what was coming, I still found the haunted house to be a bit scary. I may have flinch a bit walking through. The mini golf course glows and has an 80s music theme, with Michael Jackson and Guns and Roses mannequins. Everything except the escape rooms are included with admissions. You will find a bunch of 80s memorabilia around the museum like cabbage path dolls, troll dolls, critters, and a prince guitar. There are also placards throughout the museum that provide information on some of those exhibits. I liked this place. and most people that grew up in the 80s will go through here and reminisce about their childhood. The museum does have a lot crammed into it little space and spills out into the parking lot with a Top Gun jet and a Robo Cop police car. I recommend checking this place out, and suggest you search spots like Groupon to save you a few bucks. They do offer a military discount.
