“We came here for the arcade. I have to admit I was disappointed. Several of the games flat out didn’t work. But you would not know until you swiped your card and then the game didn’t work. Some games worked but then didn’t add your points to your card correctly. My family has been looking for a good arcade in KCMO, but both the Main Event in Lee’s Summit and Olathe have the same problem with their arcades. The selection is great but there are so many broken games it’s like the management doesn’t care. Sad really.”
