Information

Closed on March 11th, 2018. Has moved to GameOn in the upper basement.

This is a cinema arcade, so families (and uni students) are the main audience here. The atmosphere is pretty good, nice and calm (and suitably hectic during school holidays).
It's a smallish location with the games spread out neatly, albeit a sectioning system in place.
The main games they have are racing and shooting games, as well as sports and prize games.
There are some fighting games, i.e. Street Fighter and Tekken cabs.
The cabinets are generally kept in good nick, and the techs and operators are friendly and open to communication.
They're quick to fix machines once a tech gets in. If you spot a fault, tell the person at the front desk. They're only theater employees so they don't have any keys to the machines, but they'll happily log any issues and give you tokens if the machines ate your coins.

In the same building you can find some other games at Metrolanes (level 3) and Lilliputt (lower basement)
