It was great!!! Unless we don't like noise.
Fantastic! Allow 2-3 hours to play all the machines. Incredible to have so many old machine's in good working order. Lots of fun and great to do to as something different while in Budapest.
A timeless moment Pinball and video games take us back in time Paid admission but all games are free We spent 3h15 so it relativises the fights made to our children 🤣🤣 1000% to do
Unlimited pinball for a reasonable price. So many interesting machines, lots of classic arcade games as well. A few of the vintage ones were broken but it was still a fun way to spend an afternoon. Totally unique experience and a fun dive into the history of pinball machines.
Amazing, so many cool games machines to play on, all included in the ticket. Large selection of pinball games but also lots of retro video games eg. pac-man and mortal combat and some physical ones eg. air hockey and bowing games. Can easily spend a couple of hours hear. Great for children but also for adults.
That was a really great experience. We were back in the 90s with Pegman, Tetris and Co. Also the huge selection of pinball machines of the first generations to this day where you can get out of"pinballers" was gigantic. It was a lot of fun.
Best experience in budapest. We were there for 2h and we could stay 2 more easily if it wasn't time for dinner. Only downside was the guy at reception, very rude.
Very crowded space on a cold day, the pinball machines are awesome. Lots of variety no need for advanced tickets.
10 years after coming, nothing has changed the place is still fascinating and fun! Ah yes, something has changed, the welcome and that’s what explains my rating... The mustache person at the reception is unpleasant to the extent possible. We have arrived at 3: 2 adults and a 13-year-old child. I told him “3 tickets” and he charged us 3 adult tickets. We realized this when we validated the payment, we pointed out that there was normally a child ticket. The latter coldly retorted “I said look at the prices”. Perhaps it is a “young” salesman? Or maybe he can’t tell the difference between a 13-year-old child and an adult under 26 (for which there is a reduced rate). Shortage of ophthalmologist in Budapest?
The earlier you go the better as it does start to get very busy Over 140 machines with lots of table top games some retro but great fun
