Came in running a little late for a birthday. Last kids were being walked in as we arrived…read more Employee told us he could not restart the game which had been going on for 30 seconds because they were behind. He said we could use other amenities for party including the games. He set us up with a card. My son went to use it and it had no balance. I asked why and he said the balance won't load until laser tag ended. I asked how long and he said 20+ mins. So instead of making an 8 year olds day so he could play laser tag with his friends, you give us a card where we need to wait 20+ mins before it has any value. Thanks for nothing.

GREAT!!! Got helped by Shaye, he was pleasant to be around and was extremely helpful.read more

This place is great! All you can play for $15…read more We actually had a group of 11 and I think 10 or more gets you down to paying only $10 a person! You get a wrist ban and can play all day long with in and out privileges so you can go to the restroom, get some food, shop, and still come back for more! They have pinballs, dance revolution, guitar hero, tons of retro games and newer systems. You can play in groups or solo. They also sell games, devices, clothing and other merchandise. Definitely a great place to go to spend the day gaming!!

This is a great place to play video games, and it held my older kid's attention for at least two…read morehours. My younger child (lower elementary age) was bored after about 45 minutes, but your mileage may vary. Boss Battle Games has a lot of cabinet-style arcade games, like Centipede, Pac-Man, Mortal Kombat and others. All of your Gen-X and Millennial video game dreams will be fulfilled here. They also have some pinball machines -- some you can play for an extra fee, and some seemed like they could be played with the price of admission. There are also some interactive games, like Dance Dance Revolution. Speaking of admission: You pay $15 for a wristband that grants you access to almost all of the video games, and you can come and go all day. If you're really into playing video games, this is a great deal. They don't sell any food or beverages here, so if you want something to eat or drink, you'll need to leave and come back. But since Boss Battle Games is located inside Castleton Mall, there are lots of places to find something to eat around the area.

That being said, you do need to watch young children because Escapades is not a babysitting service. You can think you are the best parent ever and then find your older child in the baby area or climbing on the outside of the equipment anyway, just because someone else's child had the idea and yours thought hey, why not? There is always risk of injury at any playground and the staff at Escapades are extremely busy checking kids in, making food, and taking care of the arcade in addition to cleaning up the messes so many people leave behind. Watch your own children.

Don't have your kid's birthday party here. I have spent time to write this review so I didn't react…read moreemotionally. I'm still unhappy almost 2 weeks later. First, they double booked us. Okay, mistakes happen. I wasn't happy but they accommodated (after I told them I would not move the party because the invites were already sent and they contacted me 1 week prior). Then, we arrive at 2:45 (party was at 3). They said they would get our party host and get us to our space. At 3:00, guests started arriving and we were still waiting for our party host in the lobby. Mind you, still holding the cake and all our stuff to decorate, etc. I rejoined the line because I'm not waiting any longer at this point. Finally talk to someone at 3:04. And at that time, a girl walks in on her phone. Our party host . Then we get to our space and she couldn't find the light switch to turn on the lights, doesn't have the socks, doesnt have wrist bands, doesn't have the list of waivers, I could go on. The kids didn't get to play until like 3:45. Then they were called back for pizza and cake. And to top off the day, they made us leave at 4:30 as scheduled. I was embarrassed and pissed. I will mention to keep this story completely truthful, they gave us $60 off our bill of $300. Thanks..?

This place is fine if you are looking to purchase games…read more On the other hand, if you are looking to sell games, this place is going to do worse than GameStop. I asked about selling various games and consoles, and not only did the customer service suck they also tried to tell me that my games are worth less than they are. A quick search online proved that they were worth 60-100 dollars more than they offered. After an attempt to haggle prices at least a little up (but still selling them cheap, or half-price) I was instead turned away. They just wasted my time. I have other gripes about their system of cash vs. in-store-credit, as I know other second-hand video game stores have easier ways of handling that system, and I was told I had to pick one or the other, I could not do partial credit. Overall I know that I have had better experiences here when I try to buy games or consoles, but trying to sell to them has quickly shifted my opinion on the store.

Guys, don't waste your time…read more Everything here is priced at or higher than eBay. This isn't POTENTIALLY a problem, except all of the games I found were missing manuals, were not priced at all, the discs were scratched, or the labels or inserts were water damaged/torn. There's no way these rough copies should touch Complete-In-Box average prices. Furthermore, Fud, if you're going to overprice something, don't do it at the very last second, as your customer is trying to pay for it. Next, if you have old price tags from previous retail locations, REMOVE THEM. You use two different styles of tags alone, I believe, so, why keep other companies' tags on the cases, too? It's misleading and confusing. Lastly, it's pretty lazy to not change out a jewel case or two on some of the pricier Dreamcast and PS1 games. Again, if you're going to charge at or above what someone could pay on eBay mobile during their lunch break, you should consider cleaning some of these games up and replacing the cases with official replacements. Or discount accordingly. Some of these games look like they are straight outta the yard sale.

Something you don't always see at bowling alleys these days. They continue to upgrade and make it even better. We have our Christmas party here every year and it is so great every year.

Not a place to miss if you are in the Newcastle area.

They have lots to do so everyone in your family can do their favorite activity!…read more We had a group of 4 adults and started with putt putt. It is upstairs so those unable to climb stairs may not be able to participate. It was 9 holes of black light ,dark, dinosaur themed fun. You can tell that it's a little outdated as there were lots of pieces broke and the air was one of them, so hot!! We then went into the bar for some drinks to cool down and a couple appetizers. Pretzel bites with nacho cheese and fried pickles. Both were good. The pretzel bites were so greasy that the cheese kept sliding off though. In the area they have axe throwing and table top connect four. Then we bowled. $50/hour/lane. That was a lot of fun! There are robots who bring your food to your lanes - all while jamming to the beach boys surfing USA - which was neat and terrifying at the same time, ha! They have an arcade but we didn't try that out. Plenty of parking and restrooms. Would recommend!
