Boomtown WHYYYYY? I have always adored this place since I was a little kid. My family were the original founders of Boomtown as a truck stop before it became an attraction so I've always LOVED talking it up and referring people to this awesome family experience. I visited a week ago and wanted to cry. I am still shocked by how different it was. THE MOTION THEATER IS FREAKING GONE!!! The awesome mini golf course was apparently not worth plugging in so anything cool and unique about it was shamed and not so fun. A LOT of the arcade games were broken. The cool newerish ferris wheel was out of commission. The carousel did work and my littles liked it, and there were still some cool arcade games they really enjoyed. My kids actually still really loved it and ask me to go back almost daily.... it's me who is so disappointed because I know what it used to be and has potential to be. Please please please fix the broken stuff and let your mini golf be cool again!! AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET THAT AWESOME MOTION THEATER BACK IN MOTION!!! That was the best part of the...
Read moreCool place but a lot of games are closed/not working, and games are also kind of expensive compared to other places. Mini golf is pretty fun. It seems like there’s supposed to be water around the mini golf course but it’s currently empty which is odd. Also there’s two figures towards the end of the mini golf that look like animatronics but don’t seem to move?
Overall it’s a pretty fun place but a lot of the games seem rigged (not their fault that’s just how arcades are), and you’d have to spend a ton of money to get any decent prizes, but it’s more worth it to just focus on the fun games rather than try to get tickets and just end up getting a few items you could buy at a dollar store.
Also the games are a bit expensive, each one is at least $2-4 for just one play. And be warned if you have a birthday party here, kids might be disappointed because they won’t be able to earn any tickets using the...
Read moreI will never have a kids birthday party ever again here. Our party room was not setup in advance we had to do all the work. We brought everything in the day before the party and was told by staff that it would be all set up upon arrival. We got there and was told sorry we are short staffed and was basically told do it yourself! Then had multiple issues with the game cards. I paid for the $300 package and was highly disappointed! Pizza was cold and party room was filthy. Waste of money! Do not book a party here! They did try to make it right with some poor little discount for the troubles but then turned around and asked for a tip. Unbelievable! Plus half the games and rides didn’t even work or you had to hunt an employee down for them to come operate the ride. Probably would’ve had better luck taking my money to...
