🛡️ Safety & Comfort

    • Upon booking the lead parent/guardian will be responsible for the suitable age rating of games. We do not have GTA games due to extreme violence. The gaming host will not monitor the games selected however can give a brief at the party commencement to the attendees on what has been allowed by the party booker. If in doubt please speak to other children's parents in advance of what they are/ are not allowed to play. This is a parental responsibility decision. Consoles are loaded with a range of age ratings as per any arcade set up thus managing this falls down to parental guidance.

    • There is a small raise in the doorframe however wheel chairs have accessed this previously. We have designed our pod so that a wheelchair can manoeuvre internally and one of the gaming chairs can be removed for a direct access to consoles. The toilet is not wheelchair accessible due to the building construction however a wheelchair accessible public toilet is available less than 10m from the shop front.
