Today with the help of a Groupon, the kids were able to do more than they are normally allowed to do. They bowled, had a few turns on the laser maze and jumped in the inflatables. The laser maze and bowling get zero complaints from me. However, The inflatables gets 1 star- the inflatables themselves are great, but... The absolutely ridiculous turf, they stupidly put down in a children's play area.... I cant even! There are these black pellets all over the place "for your comfort and safety" Let me tell you my child's bloody murder screams from the pellet in his eye, that refused to come out, and the over 15 minutes he spent crying in pain on the bathroom floor, to his now probably scratched cornea... safety and comfort are not exactly the words that crossed my mind. There were a lot of swear words that did, however. This definitely ruined my son's fun. I really do not understand the point of this material being added. It is definitely not safe. I will not be back (for the inflatables) for this reason specifically. I would also recommend parents go to other inflatable entertainment facilities we have in the area. Everything here is pretty costly. As a parent I cant afford to bring my kids here often. But they do have fun when they go. I also feel like I just gave them a gambling addiction from the crane games. That's where is starts, folks.... JUST ONE MORE TIME...I ALMOST HAD IT.....

I was recently here for an INCREDIBLE pinball tournament from Texas (yes really). While you can go to district 82 for open play, competitive play is where it is at. Erik (et all - such as the tornement score submitters, tournament directors and so on) did a TRULY masterful job running the show. I couldn't be more grateful or honored to have been a part of The Pinball Super Series 2021, even if I did not play as well as I hoped. I am shocked there isn't more local interest in this place. I believe that every town should have a "pinball house" like most towns have a bowling alley. This is the gold standard template for such a thing. It is pinball through and through, and it is awesome! "Pinheads enter here!"

Facility was set up nicely with lots of games to choose from and location was clean. The human claw and game room were especially unique and fun (although the claw came at an extra 20$ price which seemed steep due to it being a very short experience). The game room "the Arena" was the highlight of the games! Think Beast Games if you have seen the show. Interactive high tech group games - incorporating teamwork, speed, and memory.

The food was more expensive than I expected, especially for a cafeteria-style restaurant with no table service. My biggest disappointment was the burger. It was cooked well, but it was overly salty to the point that it masked the flavor of the meat. I was also surprised to be prompted for a tip. Since customers order at the counter, pick up their own food, and there is no table service, the expectation of a tip didn't seem appropriate. Overall, I don't mind paying more for a quality meal, but in this case I didn't feel the food or the dining experience matched the cost.
