Very very UPSET and DISAPPOINTED!!! Spent a lot of time and money ($80) playing The Price Is Right game with my daughter who was trying to win a pocketbook. The game is one where you are trying to knock down coins to get tickets as well as trying to knock down a RED PAINTED COIN with the letters BA to win the grand prize which is a pocketbook. Upon starting to play there was a Red Coin in the very top and beginning which everyone would never try getting unless they decided to play for a day or two straight and hundreds and hundreds of dollars later and there was also another RED PAINTED COIN With THE LETTERS BA PAINTED ON IT on the far left corner towards the winning end of the tray. My daughter and I were so excited to try and get that RED one with the assumption that that was the coin in there for a few days which was nearing coming out, so we continually played for over an hour and lots of money later trying to get the RED COIN to come down. We had lots of people looking on and cheering us on. WE FINALLY GOT THE RED COIN TO GO DOWN AND WERE JUMPING UP AND DOWN SOOO HAPPY! We ran to the counter and told the staff who were also so happy. One of the staff guys came to open the machine and after a long while retrieved the FULLY PAINTED RED COIN and then proceeded to tell us there were no BA initials on it so that he didnt think we won. My daughter was SO UPSET so I ASKED HIM TO CALL A MANAGER. While waiting another staff guy said he was sure we should get it and that he would say that. The MANAGER MATT finally came over and said that WE DID NOT WIN! I told him that until the coin came out there was no way to see if the coin had the BA initials on it! I also showed him the coin versus the other coin and he basically told me that I COULD HAVE EASILY PAINTED THAT COIN AND PLACED IT IN THE MACHINE TO WIN! WE WERE INSULTED AND ANGRY!!! I told him that having that coin there was NOT FAIR and MISLEADING!!! HE WAS COLD AND NASTY!!! When I asked if there was anyone above him I could speak to he SO NASTILY gave me a phone number! Another guest there also commented on how NASTY he was and how we were SCAMMED!!! This is a place for kids to have fun... not to be scammed and misled!!! Later on I called the number he gave me only to find out it was HIS NUMBER WHERE HE HAD THE LAST LAUGH!!! TRULY NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! I wish I could RATE THIS PLACE "0" STARS!!!

Maybe the cleanest and definitely the best-maintained family arcade on the Rehoboth boardwalk! The staff is very friendly and helpful, the games are fun and almost always in good working condition (unlike at many other local arcades), and games are changed out regularly enough to keep the selection interesting. We are sure to visit every time were in Rehoboth!

Mainly for kids but I see parents and teenagers that have just as much fun! Coin machines, skee-ball, claw machines, they have it all! Very loud and the people who work there are usually very nice.

A nice clean arcade. Not very big though compared to boardwalk arcades in other resort towns. Not much variety in games. Friendly staff. Does not share tickets with the Funland games.

Always fun and reminds me of being a kid again. As usual, dont spend all your money trying to win the big ticket items at the rigged games, like game consoles. Just go and have fun!

Cheap skeeball. We dont miss an opportunity to play tons of Skeeball for 10 cents a game.
