Small in door amusement park with novelty rides, sights and attractions. You can purchase a cheaper, just entry ticket or a decently priced ticket that includes entry and rides. The staff will show you instructions in English.
I'd say it's very worth going as a Sonic fan!! Thank you Joypolis for bringing out the Sonic mascot! He was very adorable and I'm very happy I got to meet him finally💙
Either way, buy tickets in advance and try to go on a weekday. We bought our tickets on Klook and got the Buy 1, get 1 free deal for the passports.
Yes, it's a nice spot to go on a rainy day, but everyone else has the same mindset so of course it'll be busy. We went while the weather was nice out and it was not busy!
There are lots of crane games, lots of actual games and a few rides to go on! I'd say it's worth going!
We (male female, mid to late 30s) went on a Wednesday.
Wasn't too busy, wait times averaged 30mins to an hour for some of the popular attractions.
Some hardly any wait then when we exited there would be a line with a 30 min wait so it really just depends.
Overall a good time, we spent about 5-6 hours there. Managing to get on 7 attractions, have a bite to eat and have a go on some of the grab machines and carnival games (I won a Sonic stuffed toy)
I would avoid the potatoes from the 2nd floor cafe and we felt Sadako wasn't worth the wait.
Loved it, I wish I could have spent more time here. All the attractions I went on were very interactive and so much fun. The crepes are delicious, and the view from the restaurant at the top is amazing. The staff are all so cute, very friendly, and animated. This place makes me happy. It's a little expensive, the lines for attractions can get kinda long, and I wish there was more air conditioning. It was very worth it, though. I would definitely recommend visiting. I'm glad we came!
It can be fun for kids and maybe teenagers. I thought it was more about VR and augmented reality experiences, but the attractions are a little old school.
For example, in the laser shooting experience you are shooting still mannequins in a dark room, there’s no visual effects. The Sadako attraction (the Ring) was the worst -as the best, somehow. A comedic experience with low quality fx very poor and short.
We came on a Wednesday (Christmas day). Not crowded at all. We only waited 20min for the main attraction (a skating game). We bought the full pass on KLOOK (30 US dollars), but you can pay the entrance there and then pay for every attraction you enter (around 1000 yen = 7 US dollars).
The staff is amazing, very nice and willing to help at anytime. I’d go back only if I’m visiting with my little nephew.
