Arcades in Hamilton

Arcades in Hamilton come in two sizes: a quick claw-machine stop or a full floor attached to bowling lanes or laser tag. Thursday is the day to know, because Splitsville Bowl on Stone Church Road East runs half-price arcade all day, with VR games and racing simulators next to 34 ten-pin lanes.

Lazer Mania on Upper James pairs a swipe-card arcade and prize counter with a multi-level laser tag arena, and Tuesday is its $4.50 night. Kyoto Claw on King Street East runs on tokens, and you can keep a prize or trade it in for points. VAVA covers claw machines inside Eastgate Square while you shop.
