Funstation Hull

Great fun, good for kids, machines stingy with tickets and prizes need lots of tickets

Had a fantastic time with my autistic daughter and we are going back in 2 weeks so my daughter can get 2000 tickets because that's what she needs for the Nintendo switch con Joy's,hope she gets them

Great for kids / my daughter had lots of fun 13th birthday

Once you've got your card loaded up, and figured you need to swipe and not do a tap on the top (were so used to tapping cards to pay these days), it's good to go around and have some fun. The bowling definitely was different but most games worked. Felt like a kid again in a candy shop. Also when you collect tickets, don't forget to use the machine in the middle to total them up. The air hockey was a bit disappointing, it just didn't work as other tables I've played on. But all fun for spent a good hour or two in there on £20.

Fab little arcades. Love that you have cards to top up so you can monitor spending. Great variety of games to play

Fun and games for the kids including birthday packages.

I totally get the appeal, my daughter loves this place but she's also smart enough to see that the prizes are exceptionally expensive. I only ever top up the card now when they have offers such as the pay £10 get £10 free.

We love this arcade! We went for the first time a few weeks ago and we’ve been back several times since. All the machines are done by swiping the preloaded card you buy and top up, rather than using cash, which makes it all really convenient and easy. When you arrive for the first time, you can either go to the counter to buy a card with tickets for playing with or you can use the self service machine. When you have your card, you can use it again with each visit. Some of the machines give out prize tickets too and these are cleverly stored on your card rather than the wads of paper tickets at other arcades. You can check at the counter to see how many prize tickets you have accumulated and each machine tells you how many playing tickets you have left every time you spend some. It makes it easy to keep track! There’s a good variety of machines to play on including a dance machine, grabber machines, a coconut shy, many other ball throwing games, racing games, shooting games, etc. Some of the games feel very modern like a Crossy Road game with a big screen and a piano game where you hit the keys to match the screen. There’s also air hockey tables, a kung fu panda game, and a bowling alley. On our visits we haven’t tried the bowling alley yet but it looked like everyone using it was enjoying it! There’s also a cafe area with seating. I would warn people with sensory needs that it can get a bit loud with all the games noises, bowling noises, and people having fun noises so you might want to take that into account before visiting. We found that the area outside of the arcade was quiet enough to have a breather when it got a bit much before we went back in for more fun. The machines have varying prices but are all very affordable. On our first trip we bought 100 tickets to play with and we found that was enough to give most games a try. It’s so easy to top up the card at the machine for more playing tickets too. We would recommend this arcade and it’s definitely become a favourite place of ours to go whenever we are in town!

It's not massive but the kids like it...i think we will be going again. And the staff are friendly and helpful

My life genuinely improved when this place opened , a god send to Hull, a tragedy to my bank , but its fine because I get to pick disney ornaments to take home when I have earned some tickets!
