brought my child there last month and had a blast. Every time we go we have fun. It reminds me of my childhood enjoying my time in an arcade. The prizes the we trade our winning tickets for are kind of cheesy but the kids love them and that is what matters.

This place is excellent for young couples on dates, children, families and for everyone. We take our young children there because they love the games. For about $20 you can get a cup full of coins and about 30 minutes of entertainment. The kids have a blast feeding their tickets into the ticket munchers and then picking their prizes afterwards....

The midway is great for the kids, which means rest time at the bar in the bowling ally for the adults lol.

Great little arcade, brought me back to my childhood. Could have spent lots of money if we stayed there any longer!

First off grab a coupon book at the front of this place to save even more money on tokens. You get an extra $5 worth with every $20 spent. Loved the redemption games and most everything was working well. Place was clean and had a lot of small rides for smaller children to sit in, which my 20 month old... More

Kind of like a casino for kids, offers the latest in gaming arcade action. Best part are the tickets handed out by the machines, they offer good prizes as well, best arcade I've ever seen.

Definitely one of the bigger arcade places we've been to, the kids spent 2 hours in there easily before even realizing it. We found it to be pretty reasonably priced. Make sure to pick up some of the coupon books before buying your tokens as there are coupons in some of them to increase the amount of tokens for the... More

This is a must stop for our family every time we are in Niagara Falls. There is an unthinkable amount of games... Make sure you bring enough cash as the tokens can run out quickly with three kids playing at the same time.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed our arcade. We have many new games to play...I can imagine that it would get pricey with 3 children. We do offer $5 worth of added tokens in our Attractions coupon book located throughout Clifton Hill for future reference. ;) Take care and we hope to see you again soon, Christine Lynn clynn@cliftonhill.com Social...

I used to frequent this place on a bi-weekly basis but now I don't go there much. But I tried one more time at the end of february to go again. The first thing I noticed disappointing is that their In The Groove machine has gone awkward. The screen they use now is smaller than the original screen, making the... More

We go here every time we visit NF's. it had been significantly expanded and improved since our last visit. It looked newer and cleaner and had many new games. It's an arcade-expensive and crappy prizes, which is typical, but above average. We spent $50 total for our 4 kids to play for about an hour. They each got about 40-45... More
