About a year ago I visited Krazy City in the Tricount mall, Cincinnati OH. (A year or two prior I had gone to an interesting gameroom - Wonderpark - at a nearby mall that is now closed, that had a small rollercoaster inside and some other unique things.)
I remember being pretty surprised about KC, but I just revisited their website and I'm reminded how the place was.
It's similar to a Gameworks or Dave and Busters, but IMO better for families. Check out the website here:

They have a redemption center and arcade, not a "great" arcade by classic collector standards, but they did have some new pins and new linked racing games, as well as a large bank of Daytona 2's or similar. A few things to keep an arcade guy entertained.
They had an integrated restaurant, of course.
What set this place apart was it was HUGE and had indoor gokarts, 4 or 5 amusement park rides, mini golf, bowling alley, a rock wall, and several sections for kids like a clay project area, girls play makeup area, a "fossil dig", and other craft type of areas.
Anyone go there with their family? I could actually see myself going there with the whole family when the kids are at "ride age" and having a blast. The way things go it might be out of business by then, but I can hope. Wish there were something like that here in Charleston, but we are too small to support that sort of thing. (We're lucky to have a couple of mom n pop cart/fun centers).
I guess it's not that different than a D&B's, but I always feel like D&B and Gameworks is more aimed towards the 20-30 somethings. This place seems much more family and kid oriented. I don't know if it's because I have two little girls now, or if I'm really just a big kid inside and I get my fill of classics at home, but this type of place really gets me pumped!
Anyone else like these places or been to this one?
