What's actually here
The arcade side runs on video games, VR, carnival classics such as Down the Clown and Bean Bag Toss, a Pixel interactive floor game and life-size Hungry Hippos. That mix suits families with younger children right up to teens and adults. The four Breakout Escape Rooms are a separate, booked experience built around puzzles and a story: The Upside Down (Stranger Things-themed), Temple of Doom, Castle in the North and The Exorcism. The Exorcism is recommended for ages 16 and over because of its theme, so it is not one for younger children. Titanic Desserts handles waffles, milkshakes, loaded ice creams and sweet treats on the food side.
