Top 10 Game & Entertainment Centers in New Jersey, United States

June 25, 2021 Marissa Gamble

Whether you are looking for sun-drenched beaches or outdoor activities in beautiful countryside, New Jersey has plenty to offer. Those who love the great outdoors should head for the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, which runs along the Delaware River for forty miles. Here you can go rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking or fishing, or simply admire the stunning waterfalls. There is a huge range of hiking trails to choose from as well as historic sites to visit. In winter, you can enjoy cross-country skiing near Blue Mountain Lakes, and birdwatchers might be lucky enough to catch sight of bald eagles. If you are looking for a change, visit one of New Jersey's eleven lighthouses that are open to public, such as the one in Cape May. For art and history enthusiasts, New Jersey State Museum in Trenton has historic artifacts and American fine art from the nineteenth century to the present day as well as a Planetarium.

The Silverball Pinball museum has tons of pinball machines to enjoy ranging from the 1950 to present day. Great for a rainy day or even a break from the sun. Better to purchase the half-day ticket to play all the games, including Pac Man, Frogger, Super Mario Brothers, Pong, Air Hockey, Skeet Ball, and the multitude of Pinball machines. Fun - Fun - Fun!

Yestercades

Reviewed By 41gailf - Brick, United States

I was at Yestercades recently with a group of special needs adults. It was a very good experience for our participants. They have a variety of games for a variety of abilities, including a pool table in the back room! Some computer games, and all the usual pinball games and older type games like pacman. Also the staff was very nice and helpful.

Morristown Game Vault

Reviewed By Coolerking101

Hands down the best selection of retro-arcade titles around. Blows Barcade and Yestercades out of the water. They have all the classics (Galaga, Ms. Pac Man, Star Wars, Tron. etc), plus a bunch of beloved, but hard to find titles, including my personal favorite, 720. All of the games were working and most were in pristine condition. You can tell there's real pride taken in the games. For anyone looking for an old school arcade fix, this is the place to go.

Escape AC - Escape Rooms

Escape AC is located right in the heart of Atlantic City at the Tropicana Casino Hotel. Our top quality venue combines highly immersive sets with clever puzzling to deliver four themed and challenging escape room adventures. We recommend ages 13+ due to the challenging nature of our puzzles. Visiting the shore in South Jersey and ready for 60 intense minutes and 1 seriously good time? Look no further, Escape AC is Atlantic City's finest hour!

This was such a fun activity, initially we were four people getting ready to go in and three people spontaneously walked in and were placed in our group. Initially I wasn't sure how it would go being we didn't know the people that were added. However, we bonded quickly under the circumstances and worked together very well! Everybody had a great time! We did NOT escape the room, unfortunately, but we had a fantastic time trying and are already planning our next Escape AC adventure! The staff and our game master Nick were very kind, patient and accomodating (since most of us were first timers, we had tons of questions/comments....a very chatty group!!). This is an awesome super fun experience, do not miss an opportunity to experience it!

Encounters

There are 3 attractions at Encounters. First, there is a one of a kind, alien themed mirror maze. There are thousands of reflections, black lights, LED lighting effects, and even a few aliens to greet you along the way. Second, there is a laser maze. It's like in Mission Impossible, you try to avoid the lasers, complete 3 objectives, and escape the space vault in the fastest time possible. Lastly, there is Time Freak, which is a real life whack-a-mole game. You try to hit the lights on the wall as quickly as possible in order to achieve the high score.

Bury The Hatchet Cherry Hill - Axe Throwing

*Hours subject to change* Competitive axe throwing is a well known Canadian past time that's becoming increasingly popular in the United States. Simply put, it's like playing a game of darts, except with axes! At Bury The Hatchet you'll experience the thrill of launching an axe at a wooden target in a safe and fun environment. You and your best mates will spend two hours becoming intimate with a 1.5lb piece of whirling wood and metal as you learn, practice, and then finally square off toe-to-toe in a group tournament.
