The Scene
The Modesto location reads as a high-energy chain entertainment hub rather than a retro or curated arcade. The space feels loud and celebratory, designed for groups who want to mix gaming, big-screen sports viewing, and shared meals. It caters equally to families with kids and adult crowds watching games, leaning into a buzzy, casual atmosphere.
Standout features include the Power Card game system, a full restaurant and sports bar, happy hour programming, the Eat & Play Combo, large-screen sports viewing on 40ft HD screens, private party rooms, free parking, a Power Card kiosk for balance checks and reloads, reserved seating for sports viewing, and a Summer Season Pass. The Modesto standout is its pairing of 40ft screens with $5 Lime Time ‘Ritas and 22oz draft specials during every world soccer match broadcast.

Games & Machines
The arcade floor runs on the Power Card system, with credits loaded onto a swipe card instead of coins or tokens. The lineup covers racing games, shooters, air hockey, basketball games, VR games, crane games, pushers, dance games, redemption games, and merchandising games. The Human Crane is flagged as a signature attraction at this location.
Group play options include the Arena and Social Bays, which are set up for larger parties to compete head-to-head. Tickets earned on redemption games are capped at 1,500, and a Power Card kiosk on site makes it easy to check balances and reload credits mid-session. An Eat & Play Combo pairs an entrée with a $10 Power Card, with an Unlimited Game Play upgrade available for players who want to stay on the floor longer.
