Legacy Gaming is great for adults as well as for kids. Juan and his staff were very accommodating…read morewhen all five of us showed up with kids. The kids loved the VR and the large variety of games to choose from on xbox and playstation. The staff was very helpful, polite and patient with the kids and the adults if we needed help. Legacy is an excellent place for hard core gamers and for just getting out the house to spend time playing old skool video games (Pac Man). It's a nice clean environment and I felt very safe bringing the adult kids and the grandkids. We will definitely be back again! Carole D

The space is well laid out and everything fits the gaming theme. The staff is friendly and accommodating. You should have a little bit of patience when you come because it takes time to get things up and running. I brought my son here for his 10th birthday and he had a great time! I recommend about an hour visit. It's just enough stimulation and not too bad on the pockets. It's $40 for an hour of VR gaming. Then if you want you can do game consuls which are about $30 an hour. And if you wanna blast to the past you can play one of the old nostalgic gaming consuls for about $10 an hour. I think it's a cool place to come for a date if you're into gaming and want to do something different as well. Or maybe just switch up your week routine and come here and play some old school video games and take your mind off of things.

Came here for a date after passing it numerous times bumping around downtown…read more I've always pegged this place as sort of a more local Dave & Busters and it sort of is on a smaller scale. Food, drinks and of course a bunch of games to play. Difference here is they seem to host ESports and other games beyond arcade games which is cool. This particular visit was kind of like a Classic play some games and laugh along the way rather than expect to find gem games of days gone by or even present. There is a good assortment of light gun, classic fighters and of course DDR which they were real generous with - 6 credits on a swipe which is like 9 song/sets! There is a bar but it's kind of basic compared to the afformentioned Dave & Busters, which makes that part of their identity. Also the person selling me the game card was fast on talk, and slow on the explanation of how things work which could've been better. It was nearing close so I wasn't going go through the whole rundown. Fun time here if you're looking for something to do in the area, but a Barcade or Dave & Busters will do the job all the same.

I hadn't been to GameWorks for a couple of decades when I went last week for a relative's birthday…read more He is really into video games and enjoyed Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) along with the driving games where you can race against your friends/family members. So, I am glad he had a good time. But I don't think I will go back to GameWorks in the future, even for special events. First, the loud noise and flashing lights made me feel like I was in a casino for kids. Something creepy about the vibe there. Second, there was no real air conditioning on a hot summer day, just these mobile a/c fans that blew cold air and were quite loud, adding to an already noisy place. Third, the games were very expensive. You have to buy a card for game credits and swipe that card whenever you play a game. We calculated later that it was cost us $1.60-2.30 PER GAME. That is including vintage games like Frogger and Ms. Pacman and other games like Operation, Skeeball, and driving games that only give you one life. Growing up in the 70s and 80s, I went to A LOT of arcades as a kid and teen. I don't expect places to be like the arcades I went to back then, but I do expect a fair and decent exchange for my money for the experience of playing a video game. Three lives/tries per fee is a fair exchange. GameWorks is nothing like that, and for that reason, along with others I've given here, I won't be back.

This was my first time to a claw place and it was a fun time. Kids had a blast- they were bummed…read morethey couldnt win one of the plushes on the wall ( it was just decor). But over $100 spent for a fun afternoon where they loved just winning. Compared to Dave and Busters where they would win like 1 out of 10 times- this was a lot more fun for them. We walked in and there was a group leaving. After that, it was just us. We were told we could ask the employee if we wanted anything moved and we did use that a couple times when machines were low. The prizes I felt like though were just "meh" There was a fake Labubu plush, and blind boxes and other stuff all that we were able to get after some more token purchasing.

A super cute shop with a really generous prize system! In the store, you purchase a set of tokens…read moreand use them to try and win plushies. Each plushy is worth a certain number of points and you can use those points to trade in for prizes behind the counter. Each tier of token purchases give you guaranteed prize points, so if you're not good you can still get prizes with every purchase. The machines are also not rigged, so it can be pretty easy to pick up vs other claw machine games. It can get full on the weekends with a longer line and more people playing, but it's very fun! Highly recommend coming here for children and they also do parties where you can rent the whole room out. Kate was super friendly and the service was wonderful!

What a great find. I had inquired about hosting a private party for our son and his friends that…read moreare all on the spectrum, in order to limit potential disruption by their various stims, outbursts and sensory issues. The owners were absolutely open to our request and suggested we host the party in the 3 hours prior to their public hours. We had the run of the the place for the 8 kids and a handful of adults. It has a great low-key relaxed vibe and the kids settled right in. They spent the first hour playing a very rousing game of Cards Against Humanity, ate their fill of pizza and then gorged out on the game offerings. Pinball turned out to be very popular as most of them hadn't played pinball before (wth?!). They allowed us to bring in our own food, beverages, and decorations. We had everything cleaned up and out by 3:45. Super friendly staff, folks purchased some DnD books, puzzles, stickers and a few figurines. The families traveled from all over the greater Seattle and Island County area and will do it again. Well worth the commute and even the Evergreen State Fair traffic. If I could make one recommendation it would be to get Galaga and Space Invaders in as video game options :) Go and enjoy a low key, casual place for an hour or more! Thank you Let's Play Cafe for making the party a huge success!!

Over the years the technology they use doesn't seem to be keeping up, where things will glitch causing lots of time and effort to get the tickets earned reflected on your card. Luckily we took a picture of the ticket rings that were won at the claw machine prior to adding them onto the card, but even after that, it was still a big hassle where management seemed suspicious that we were trying to dupe them out of tickets that were earned properly. What was surprising is that they didn't even bring the staff member over that scanned the ticket rings initially to confirm she had added the tickets. After adjusting the tickets, my card account was still active on the board, so I went back and checked to make sure it was closed out properly to avoid any further ticket issues. I asked the original staff member if she remembers adding my tickets, and she said she did but we should be good now as this was a system glitch. I accepted the explanation and took that as issue closure. Later when we went to pick prizes, another "lead" employee approached me (wish I would've taken her name), and immediately accused me of being rude and aggressive towards the staff member that added my original tickets. As a lead, I would have expected her to ask me if there was any issues with the employee, instead of outright accusing the customer. I asked her to clarify what was taken as rude or threatening, as I never raised my voice or said anything out of line even though this issue took some time to resolve. She wouldn't give me any specifics but just warned me to not be rude. Instead of getting into any further back and forth with her, I decided to just pick a few prizes and leave. I found it very unprofessional for the lead to approach me in that manner, while the Manager Tabitha didn't step in, even being close by. If something was said that was perceived as rude, let's bring everyone together and hash it out. I can guarantee *God as my witness* that I never said anything offensive, threatening, or rude to any of the staff members. All I did was provide details and proof that there was a system glitch and the tickets that had previously been added were not on the card. At no point did I ever blame or fault anyone at FFC for this issue. Rich Yee, if you'd like to discuss this matter with me directly please reach out.
