Most games were working fine, including most pinball machines. A dedicated group helps maintain this arcade. Don't miss out on the Tavern downstairs! New pinball room is coming in 2023 sometime.

Always have a fun time at fun spot. They have mini golf inside bowling arcades and I'll tell you the pizza is quite good

No tickets to buy in advance, no cover charge.it's not just a museum! You can use their machines to convert cash into tokens to play any of the 100s of vintage and modern arcade games! You can win tickets and cash them in for prizes. That's the only downfall of the experience in my opinion. The prizes at the ticket counter are ridiculously high. Most families have at least 2 kids but not a bunch of money to use for lots of tokens. And if you don't win at least 2000+ tickets, the prizes they can choose from is all a bunch of run of the mill, cheesy dollar store bric-a-brac.

Absolutely amazing and so much fun, even on the coldest days of the year! I would recommend that anybody into arcades visit and at least spend 20 dollars. The staff are also very kind and helpful, I hope this place stays as an amazing attraction for years to come.

Came here for a day in September and had an amazing time. So much variety in terms of video games, mini golf and bowing just to name a few. Took a nice stroll down memory lane after playing various arcade games for hours. Nice bar and drink selection just next to the bowling. I heard the pizza was great too, but did not partake.

If you have any nostalgia for 80s arcade games, this is a must do!

Mini golf was lots of fun with my Neice and Nephew. Fun spot is a great place to go to play games! Highly recommend

Free to enter however in order to play games you have to buy tokens and games are between 1 to 4 tokens per game. Great time for the kiddos and us due to the arcade games that we grew up with. Highly recommend!

Awesome place! In addition to the myriad of classic arcade games and pinball machines, the third floor's decor and music choice makes this feel like a portal to the early 80s in all their glory!

Fun way to spend an afternoon for those wanting to step back in time and remember a few decades ago. Got $20 worth of coins and played all the games we wanted. Wouls definitely visit again if I was in the area.

A super important place of preservation for the history of arcades, a staple of American youth culture all those years ago.

$10 could net you a few hours in here easily. Some machines are display only, but most are playable for the classic price of $0.25 for arcades, and $0.50 for the pins. The pinball machines are hit or miss in terms of quality, but in general, you can't beat the atmosphere of the ACAM. Come play some games, and donate to help keep this history alive!

All of Funspot is awesome but it is even cooler to see such a homage to the history of video gaming!

I like bally and gotlieb single level pinball machines and funspot has a bunch but half are in disrepair or not working. Lazy stuck or not working flipper solenoids, lazy bumpers with no pop left in them. These machines benefit from maintenance so please try harder to keep up with them so we can enjoy an old favorite. Charging two tokens a game for most units, having them fixed should not be too much to expect

If you're bored here it's your fault! We saw young children to our older generations. It's the world's largest arcade with classic and modern games.
