Common questions

What these games have in common is that they work for a group and badly for one person. Beyond that they differ in everything: impact, age minimums, session length and price. The tabs above split them, and the age of the group is usually the quickest way to choose.

Which place is right for us?

5 venues, and the fastest way through them is the tabs at the top: pick the game first, then let the filters handle the rest. The cards carry everything needed for a shortlist — game type, indoor or outdoor, starting price, rating, amenities — and More opens the full details.

What should we expect to pay?

Several places start at $9 per person: Spare Time Vernon and Spare Time Windsor Locks. Worth checking what that figure buys at each one, because an identical number can mean an hour of play with all the gear at one venue and admission only at another.

Indoor or outdoor?

You have 4 indoor venues and 2 outdoor to choose between. It is less about comfort than about the game: indoors means close quarters, predictable light and no weather; outdoors means cover, distance and a different kind of play. Groups with small children usually end up indoors; groups who want a long session usually end up outside.

Is this good for a kids birthday?

Most places here are set up for it — 5 venues have at least one of the party pieces: Birthday Packages — 4 venues, Party Host — 3, Arcade — 3. The thing to confirm is the room, not the game: a venue with a dedicated party room runs birthdays on a schedule, with a slot for cake and presents, while one without it means eating in the lobby. Ask about the minimum number of kids and whether you can bring your own food.

Can we get food and drinks there?

5 of the venues here have food or a place to sit: Lounge Area — 5 venues, Bar — 3, Soft Drinks — 2. For a party that matters as much as the game — the game takes an hour, the rest of the afternoon happens around a table.

What else is on site?

3 of these venues have other attractions on site: Arcade — 3 venues, Bowling — 2, Go-Karts — 1. Useful when the group is mixed — not everyone wants to play the full session, and a place with somewhere else to be handles that better.

What is actually on site?

On-site facilities at 5 of the venues: Gear Rental — 5 venues, On-Site Referees — 4. Small things, but they decide how the hour after the game goes. Each card carries the same icons, so you can scan the list without opening anything.
