I came here yesterday night with my daughter and some Yelp Elites. I found it kind of pricy in my…read moreopinion for the family group pricing at one hour. It was $46 pre tax for one adult and one child. It was alright for me though since it was my first time experiencing Gaming City. To my surprise the price was pretty worth it for all the arcade and games they have. There were games like table hockey, shooting hoops, hockey, VR simulation and interaction, racing games with a simulated motorcycle and race car. I did not expect it to have so many different types of games with DDR and a dancing grid. It just sucked that you cannot finish everything in one hour. We were given a watch to time the whole stay that we paid for. They shined red when the time was up. After the arcade play, we were given each 3 tokens for the claw machines. There were big machines that required 2 tokens and the small one only needed 1 token. The claw machines were so difficult to play. The claws were really sensitive and moved a lot. My friends and I did not even win anything. Sucks. The whole gaming city was really clean and dark. It smelled really clean and the noise level was appropriate. There were bathrooms in the middle of the whole place that were really clean. This place is a must go place for anyone who loves arcade and VR. They have it here in one location, which is right off the train station.

Great new arcade in Astoria! Individual prices are a little high, so best to purchase a…read moregroup/family package, which makes the prices more reasonable. (See my photos for exact price lists/options). We purchases a pkg for 3 ppl for 1 Hr, so it came out to $23.33 per person. (Individual price would have been $32pp). You're given a bracelet to wear. Once your time slot is up, your bracelet will turn red, letting you know your time has expired. This arcade is different from other arcades since it's unlimited play for the specific time period you purchase. The only exception are the multiple Claw Machines at the front of the store: these machines require tokens. Note that at the end of your time slot, each person will receive 3 free tokens to use on these Claw Machines; but there are very slim chances of actually winning something. Also, the Claw Machines require 2 tokens! My niece had 9 tokens and won Nothing!! All-in-all, they had some fun games. There are even 2 VR games. But be warned: if you get motion sickness easily, do NOT do the VR games! lol I was really disappointed that they didn't have Skee-Ball games, which is my fave arcade game. But we had fun exploring all their other games. Customer service (except for the below issue) was terrific. All personnel were very friendly and helpful. They really looked out for everyone on the game floor, ready to help if you didn't understand the games/instructions. There are lockers, restrooms and beverage vending machines. Everything was super clean. Note that the VR machines are sanitized in between players, which I really appreciated. So why 4 Stars and not 5 Stars? Because we had to sign waivers ahead of time, and we were told to show up 15 min BEFORE our time slot, to make sure we check-in Before our time slot starts. Sounds fair, right? Well, we showed up 15 min early, as instructed, only to find out that they are closed! Our time slot was 2pm, and they actually opened at 2pm....so why tell us to show up at 1:45pm on a hot humid day, and make us stand out in the sun for 15 sweaty minutes?!?! Grrrrr....so incredibly annoying!! So just a heads up: if you're going to their first time-slot of the day, do NOT show up 15 min early!!

Please note--it is not related to the Break Bar in Midtown, they are owned by different companies. Spent most of my time on ping pong and foosball, great for a competitive group. Even if you're just there for a quick drink and a chat you can do so with ease without feeling out of place. Pricing is great--$10-15 for food and drinks with solid variety. Recommend if you're coming with a group as it's spread out nicely, keeping everyone in their own space. A great find in Astoria--even for "your new boo" as their website puts it. Will be back to try the cocktails, some interesting names and combinations on there like the Golden Rush.

I noticed a spin the wheel outside this establishment. The staff said spin wheel and win a prize. Saw mom with two kids spinning the wheel. Everyone got a prize. Hello, I'll spin the wheel too. Inquired what are the prizes one can win. From a stuffed animal, bag, lollipop, token, etc... Funny thing is I walked by this place and had no idea that Plucky Station has been open for 7 months. Who is Plucky? What station? Walked in to get prize after spinning the wheel outside- It's all claw machines where you put in tokens and claw stuffed animals and other toys. Where to get tokens? As you walk down the ramp and on right hand side is a token machine exchange your dollars to tokens. What did we win as we each spin the wheel. A stuffed dog key chain and a bag- where you can put all the toys you won from playing at the claw machines. The stuffed animals were all adorable and cute. They lined up all the stuff animals as you walk back up the ramp to head out of the store. I think that's where I saw Plucky- Very cute. Good marketing on part of Plucky Station to draw more customers into the store as well as to learn more about Plucky Station and their services.

The Museum of the Moving Image was our afternoon outing with a four-year-old and a 15-year-old, and…read morehere's my first piece of advice: check the age-appropriateness of the exhibits before you go! There were definitely parts of the museum that were not appropriate for the four-year-old. It's not just the Muppets, people! The Muppets are great, but then there's The Exorcist and a whole lot of other things happening in there. So, depending on the ages in your group, you may need to do a little navigating. But we had a great time. The Muppets were a hit, and we checked out Felix the Cat--which thoroughly confused the four-year-old but was mostly age-appropriate. The arcade was another winner. We spent a whopping $5.50 and had a great time playing the games. Sometimes it really doesn't take much! We also enjoyed the MoMI Lab. There was a computerized dog that completely captured the four-year-old's attention while simultaneously terrifying her. She couldn't quite decide whether she wanted to get closer or get away from it, but all was well. And the café was a hit too! We ended our afternoon with a grilled cheese, two donuts, and a latte. Everybody got something they wanted, which is about as successful as an outing with a preschooler and a teenager can get. Overall, it was a fun afternoon with plenty for both ages to explore. Just do a little homework beforehand if you're bringing younger kids so you know which exhibits to wander into--and which ones to wander right past.

The service was very friendly here. The security was really on top of people showing their id. I wonder if they have a teen night here. I do want to go bowling again one day. I think its cool they have a little bowling alley in the back of the place. I'm not sure what the prices are now. But I recommend coming here with a group and getting a booth. Its a fun place and I don't see how someone could be bored here. I would like to point out the bathrooms are unisex.
