Game Room

📍 Brooklyn, NY

★2.8(24 Google reviews)

An indoor gaming venue with unlimited play sessions, though most equipment needs repair. Best as a low-cost option when you need indoor space for kids to burn energy.

For $5-8 per person depending on when you arrive, you can play all the games within the game room an unlimited number of times. There are two sessions on each weekend day, so it's not necessarily walk-in and play but I don't think you'll need a whole session's time to try everything out. We spent at most 1.5hrs here. They had classic arcade games such as basketball hoops, shuffleboard, skeeball, arcade cabinets, racing, and jenga. The concept is great but almost all of the games are janky, missing parts or broken. The games that worked the best were the old school arcade cabinets. A decent place to spend some time but I would probably only go once. Industry City is my go-to place to eat and walk around with friends and family. There's always something new to try or experience, especially in the warmer seasons! If I was looking for arcade nostalgia at Industry, I would walk around the top floor of Japan City with claw machines, gatchas, and various vendor stalls. Not prefect but visually appealing for a bit.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

This venue works best as a last resort for parents needing an indoor space where kids can run around for a couple hours, rather than for actual gaming. Best suited for families with low expectations who just need shelter and don't mind paying for broken equipment. The concept is solid but execution is severely lacking.

“Smelled like a high school swimming pool. Games were clearly for children so if you have children to leave alone to scream in a building for multiple hours at a time while you shop, great choice.”

“Sadly, this place is very janky. You're basically paying a cover fee to stay indoors for a few hours. 70% of the games are broken or missing parts. Good:: Low tech games- Pool table was the best value, as it has all the balls, but the surface is a bit worn and the cues are headless. The next best values are ping pong (if they have balls) and tabletop shuffleboard. Bad:: Pretty much the reason you came in for, The Games- 1 out of the 4 skeeball machines work properly. of the 3 not working, 1 doesn't return balls, so you physically have to retrieve it. The other 2 machines are eyesores that aren't even turned on. Same with the basketball machine; 2 out of the 3 are powered on. Of the 2 turned on, only 1 works. The other has a broken sensor and you physically have to pull the balls out. Oh, and all the basketballs except 3 are deflated. Board games are missing pieces. Half of arcade games aren't turned on. The only reason this place gets 2 stars is because it's indoors, your can bring your food in, and your kids can run around and be somewhat entertained. Honorable Mention:: Still useful if you need a place to rest for 2 hrs (but if you're going in to play games, you'll be done in an hour). No bathroom, you have to use the public one outside, across the way.”

“Cool concept, but that's about it. Pretty much all of the arcade machines are broken, the controls and buttons are not responsive. The basketball machines are all broken, with the netting being badly damaged, causing the balls to get stuck or slip right out of the machine, along with deflated mismatching balls. Only thing that wasn't broken was the foosball table that I managed to play. Would be a great spot if they managed to fix the games.”

Overview
