As a seaside resort Llandudno has a few 'amusement' arcades, there are two on the pier and two town centre ones. The Royal is located at the top of town in a predominantly retail area. Unfortunately this place is purely aimed at taking your hard earned pennies - there is no longer any pretence of trying to amuse. Unlike in the old days there are no longer any video games, it's purely gambling. There's very little but slot machines, with a bingo game, Deal or No Deal (not sure how it works - never tried it), and some crane grab machines.
Unless you've got (a lot of) money to spare DO NOT set foot in here. If you've got the time try the arcade at the end of the pier which still has some video games and the slot machines are all still 10p a go rather than £1. read more
