Every good circus needs carnival games. But all good games don’t necessarily need a carnival. They can all be found at Oscar’s Playground, sans the circus performers. This arcade is filled wall-to-wall with the hottest new games – think Minecraft Dungeons and Cruis’n Blast – as well as classics such as skeeball and a collection of pinball machines. The beeps, boops, bells and blasts that fill the air make it every arcade lover’s dream. Whether you plan a party or go solo, there’s no wrong way to play.
