| 2013-09-07 | classicrommer72 | As for other locations, I have seen the one at Chicago Ridge Mall...also fairly sad. There is definitely NOT one in Schaumburg, as one poster speculated. |

| 2009-08-02 | Mike | Place is just a trash can. Messy everywhere, workers slacking, games not working.
Terrible place. |
| 2009-03-12 | daniel | this place is trash. worst arcade ever. 90% of games malfunction |
| 2008-06-21 | DHC | Went back. Asteroids didn’t work (no asteroids, just ufos?!?) and Aerosmith Revolution X had a broken gun (middle one). Off-Road played well. 19XX seemed ok, but bored me. Didn’t test Galaga, Tetris, or Xmen.
Also has 5-7 pinball machines (mostly 90s I think – no classics). Lots of ‘gun games’, too. There appears to be a Chicago Ridge Mall location (same name) and 1 other (the clerk thought maybe Schaumberg).

| 2008-06-15 | DHC | Didn't get to play, but stuck my head in recently, after discovering it on this site.
This is a real rarity - mall arcades used to be a given at any remotely decent full-sized mall. Now, I can't remember the last time I saw a mall arcade before this (excluding the 'couple games in a theater entrance' deals).
The front is mostly kiddie stuff - sitdown racers, redemption games, Dance Dance Revolution - but there's older further back.
Didn't have time to linger, but I handled a couple buttons and sticks quickly, and they felt alright.
Doesn't go in the top tier with places like Galaxy World, Star Worlds, Nickel City, but, by current standards, its a decent medium-sized arcade, and a novelty for its location. |
