Went with some friends, what an amazing place! I had so much fun and you can't beat $15 for all day fun! I was very surprised at the amount of games they had! Soooo many retro games! Staff was super friendly! Would highly recommend going here! Can't wait until I can go again!

They apparently don't have a problem with open carry at their business. We were at a child's birthday party, and a regular (we were told) was walking around with a gun holster with a few guns and ammo exposed. I'm fine with exercising your right, but not at a place where there are a bunch of kids. My husband found a live round on the floor and took it to the front counter. The employee knew who it belonged to. If your business is unsafe, hire legit/responsible security that doesn't look unstable and loses their ammo for kids to pick-up! What if that had been a gun instead? Their policy of not allowing parents that don't want to play, but can't sit in the concession area and keep a watch on their kids is also ridiculous. You need permission to use the restroom. They are rude about it! My kids like going to Gaming Adventures, but it is losing it's appeal.

This place is awesome! The staff is super friendly every time we come in. There's something for everyone, old school stand up arcades, ping pong, air hockey and tons of console games and they even serve food that tastes good - try the pizza. Will be back!

Paid the $15 play all day fee...Its a shame most of the games did not work or did not work properly, in particular, one skee ball machine wouldn't reset the other didn't recognize points in some of the holes. Almost all of the pinball tables had flippers that wouldn't move. Guns on games with guns weren't recognized by the screen.This place could be amazing if they fixed their games.

As soon as we walked through the door, staff was very unwelcoming. I paid for my kids to have an all day pass & he told me I had to stay seated at the tables and it was mandatory. This is not kid friendly if you're not able to keep an eye on your kids at all times. My youngest is 6. On top of that, my kid asked for a game change and overheard him saying to a coworker "those kids make me mad" all because my son wanted to play a different game, which we paid admission for. The whole experience was very uncomfortable for all of us. We kept being looked at like we weren't wanted there and I've never been treated like that before in a place of business.

I found an Xbox one S power cord here for my Xbox when everyone else local was out of stock. There are arcade games here to play and game systems to buy. Very friendly service and very knowledgeable on electronics. July 7 2022 - 12-8 Thursdays. I took my 2 granddaughters to GAMING ADVENTURES and took some pictures. This place is great! Great customer service! Very clean and the price is unbelievable! The girls played arcade games and console games of xbox 360 and wii. We picked out the game and they set it up for them on the Wii and the Xbox 360. The pictures above show their hours and for $15 per person you can play all day. You can leave and even come back to play same day. The console games are included in that price! There is a juke box and a snack bar. There is pizza and burgers or pretzels (menu at counter). There is a birthday party room. Huge tv screen. PlayStations, game cube, Wii, Xbox, and many more. Many tvs, and table and chairs. There is ski ball, and air hockey, and a ping pong table. My husband and I sat and watched them play and did not have to pay a fee. I loved this place! Gaming Adventures is a great value!

Very friendly staff. I buy a lot of original Xbox games here. Most discs are in perfect order, the one time it wasn't they made it right with no hassle.

I work for a arcade/game store in Cincinnati (Arcade Legacy) actually stopped in here just by chance on my way to a indie movie premier my girlfriend was a part of and I wanted to check out another locally own small business retro gaming shop/arcade (like arcade legacy), and to my surprise it was a very impressive store, the game selection was top notch and the employees were very helpful and kind, I asked if I could walk around the arcade to see what machines they had and they were nice enough to let me check out the arcade floor and there were some awesome games and rarity cabs plus console station and a nice little cafeteria too to order food, snacks and drinks, this store is pretty incredible to say the least and rather youre into collecting games cards or board games or looking to have a nice night out that is family friendly and fun for for all ages you just have to check this place out, thanks for being awesome Gaming Adventures

Fun place. Def worth going back. Kiddos had a blast. Recommend to call ahead if going as a group so they can have concession manned properly! Every employee was patient and nice. Great community hang out. Arcade style games and also computer games as well as others

Normally I have a been a repeat customer both playing arcade games with friends and family and the retail area. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming.On this particular exchange. I called to reserve a birthday party last minute because of the weather wouldn't permit a outside birthday party for my son. Normally they require a 48 hr notice to reserve the birthday party area but they squeezed me in last second which is a huge lifesaver. I cannot think of a time where I was greeted with such care and understanding about my situation and the reason for the last second reservation.I wanna say the kind lady who helped me, a "Macy" was very professional and friendly and worked her magic to make everything go as smoothly as possible.Don and Anita (owners of gaming adventures)if you are reading this, I wanna say she has been an absolute delight and a model employee for customer service. 10/10If you ever are looking internally to promote someone to customer service manager I would suggest her.

$11 for a corroded game? Wow. I got this Ghostbusters game for the Nintendo DS. And I open it to a corroded game chip. Oh, and to add salt to injury. It was originally $8 with a covered up sticker of $11 on top.

If you have any questions about anything, every person that works there seems to know a thousand details about whatever it is you are asking about. Affordable gaming, good food, lots of supplies for nerds.

Gaming adventure has a lot of potential, however I am not sure it's ready for primetime.We went to spend a couple hours of gaming on the arcade machines and sadly half of them were out of order or not fully working.I wish the owners the best in their adventure and hope this can be handled soon.Overall the business and facility was clean, with employees cleaning while we were there. Staff is friendly and helpful. The selection of games on the retail side is abundant.

Staff were rude and unwelcoming. Came from far away to only leave after a few minutes due to staff. Don't waste your time or gas.

I could literally be here all day solely playing DDR 🤩🤩🤩 but did good at the new ski one too. The all day cost is well worth the money and you can come and go with your receipt.

We come here often with the kids. And I probably have the most fun. New and old arcade games, they have most game systems set up to play including ps5. They have pizza you can buy which is decent. Great selection of games and accessories to buy @ fair prices. Very knowledgeable staff. A staple and gem in Englewood

Great, fun. We paid for a Birthday Party here. The pizza was better than I remember ever getting from Chuck E. Cheese. We added 2 more pizza's to our order, because we had more people show up. One of our guests is disabled and they accommodated his need.

I had a birthday party party scheduled for my grandson and the day before received a phone call asking if we could come in 30 minutes before or 1pm time slot as they had booked another party for 1pm as well.The day before is NOT acceptable, especially trying to let people know of time change.It was made worse when I went to check out and was asked to pay for 12 extra people!!I filled out the guest sheet as requested and we had ONLY 3 extra people show up.The 12 others belonged to the 2nd party that was booked...As far as I'm concerned, if you booked 2 parties then you should have put colored wrist bands on the guests so that you know who to charge at check out time.Other than this irritating factor, I like the fact that kids AND adults can have a great time playing video games, air hockey, on-line games and more...along with picking music from the jukebox...ALL FOR FREE just for being a party guest.

Good experience. Some games don't work in the arcade area but still okay overall. Took my son recently and we had a fun time. Customer service is great!

DO NOT BUY TRADING CARDS FROM THIS GUY. HE WILL RIP YOU OFF. No doubt doubles prices, especially when a hot set drops. Charged me 170.00 for a booster box that should of been 90.00 bucks. I wish I was a little more experienced in the market before I made any transactions. Also SELLS FAKE POKEMON CARDS. I spotted a few when I was there. Pointed them out and was told they weren't... they were no doubt. Looked like it came right out of a printer. Buyers be aware PLEASE 🙏

Great place! A few games were down, and some screens are a bit weak, but arcade section has great variety. Console area is awesome! Food counter has lots of options. Large tabletop gaming area and very nice storefront for retail. Birthday party space too!Had been a while since I had been there, and was happy to see it continuing to get better and better!

I didn't know this place existed or I'd been here sooner but I went today and I love all the older arcade cabinets they have and the owner is pretty cool. I highly recommend this place! Anybody that reads this Please support this place! We need more of these mom and pop type places! I will be returning as soon as possible..

I love gaming adventures. I go there all the time! To do all sorts of business and this window shopping and particular to go play at the arcades and what have you to eat at even. But I'll go there to sell games to trade games or just to buy games just for the heck of it because they got what I want when I go there to look for it you know and they've always got something new and every day it's amazing the turnover rate there is good and I'm glad that they're so nearby me too! But for others I would travel there if I live far away and for all those that do live a distance I would tell you recommend you there to definitely travel to go there it's worth it

This arcade is awesome! It has older and newer games. It also has card games and board games if video games aren't your thing. Very polite and helpful staff members. They're personal to the gamers and will become your friends fast. The food is excellent and is reasonably priced. The owners are friendly. Everything at this arcade is perfect! :D
