Wunderland

Absolutely God-​awful experience. Booked a reservation online for my daughter’s birthday party. When we got there, everything the employees were trying to explain about how they charge for the admission and laser tag seemed like they were speaking in a foreign language. It’s not like the entire party was coming in the door all at the same time, yet they wanted you to figure out a head count right then and there… this is including adults and siblings that might decide to stay while their kid attended the party. The table area was messy. Laser tag schedules were unorganized. Such a small selection of video games… I think Chuck E Cheese has way more to offer. One employee in particular «Aliah» or «Maliah» had a terrible attitude. I can go on and on. Needless to say, I had never been there before and I will never be back!

A noisy junk food smelling arcade also showing discount movies that no-​one wants to show. For instance, we just took our 6 yo to see the Disney PG animation movie «The Good Dinosaurs» which turned out to be a horrible miss. Kids were horrified and crying until about 45 mind into it when we left. Basically, the movie features lots of gratuitous violence like dinosaurs eating other creatures alive, parents killed by random events, kids hallucinating on toxic fruits, and a ton of mediocre meaningless plot twists that make the story look like an episode of «The Wire» played in dinosaur costumes.

Update your phone number!
I wanted to find out if they were open New Year’s Day and the number 503−626−1665 is a fax number!

They have to tell you rules it’s part of their job and they want everyone to be safe and have fun next time you guys think oh they are treating me like I am 8 years old or whatever they are not trying to okay it’s part of the job is to make sure no body is running because they have had kids run into each other that is why that rule is in place and the other rules to so everyone doesn’t get hurt

DON’T HOST YOUR KIDS PARTY HERE. No where in the entire building do any of the rules state that you can’t take flash photos. I took one in the game area and they told me it wasn’t allowed. Then I took another over at the tables that we paid for, for my daughters birthday party. An attendant told me if I took another flash photo I’d have to leave. Are you kidding me? I was taking photos not facing the game area of my daughter opening her presents. I’ll never go there again. If I pay for my kids party I should be able to take pics.

Staff seems to treat everyone like they’re 10 years old regardless of their age. I’m an adult. I’m perfectly capable of reasonable and rational decisions and don’t need rules such as what carpet I can and can’t walk on. The staff here is so condescending and ridiculous it’s insulting. The guy at the front counter who makes fake accents. Get a life. You’re not amusing or funny. You just come off as a jerk.

$ 4 for laser tag… Good deal right? Wrong.
No running.
No crouching.
No hiding.
No yelling.
No no no no.
Having a staff member pace after you in laser tag is not what you expect when you come to play. It’s like that annoying parrot squawking in your ear.
It would be one thing if you had to watch over me as an 8 year old, but I’m an adult, I can make choices for myself thank you.
As I was walking out, I happened to step on the carpet that was green? Big mistake. Prepare to be treated like a criminal at a nickel arcade. HEY!!! YOU HAVE TO PAY TO BE THERE!!!
WTF. I was just walking out of laser tag, your staff knows that she followed me around the entire time. On top of that, I wasn’t sitting at a game, I was literally walking towards the exit.
I had a horrible experience… Don’t recommend this location to anyone.

Worst place to bring your kids seriously!!! The machines break and they don’t even care the employees all suck!!! 0 fucking stars!!! Don’t come here!

Seriously though, a lot of fun games and the laser tag is off the chain, but the staff (other than Morgan) is some serious bs. Idk why they think they need to be on a power trip, but no, I don’t need you to «escort» me to my car to get my daughter’s diaper bag… I’m 28 and totally capable of walking to my car on my own.

Went to this location hoping they’d have a classic arcade game or two. No such luck.
Air hockey game table is put of order. Game wise its almost identical to Salem’s.
Didn’t have time for laser tag bit someday
Will say it was very clean and well maintained.

It’s cheap, like the downtown location, but being in a more residential location was much more suited for children and families. I can’t complain and had a great time… I just liked the downtown location a little better.

I just wanted to inform everyone, wunderland in Milwaukie has no concession or food except popcorn.
I had no idea after already paying door fees which already rediculous adults pay but children are free. I had been inside literally 5 min left my 3 yr old to play with dad, informed man at front desk im pregnant needed food id be right back in. He then told me even though I had seriously just finished paying door fee id have to repay anyway to come back it. So moms & dads unless popcorn is all you want make sure you eat prior to arrival. The service is horrible at this location, I cant comment on others ive never been.

Just had the best experience at the Beaverton Wunderland! Everyone was extremely helpful and so nice! Michael, was really great! We will definitely go back!

Machines don’t work and just steal your coins. Also even though they are nickel machines, most games require more than 2 nickels, some 4 to 12. Total ripoff!
Once you enter the building you can’t even go to your car or you have to pay to enter again.
Please steer clear of this place. Go to John’s or Chuck instead!

Conveniently located near several neighborhoods. This location is newer than the location in DT Beaverton. They also have a theatre with an affordable price. Most of the employees are teenagers; the usual stereotype is that you receive negative customer service from teenagers. During my first visit, that wasn’t the case. All the employees were very helpful. It was a pleasant visit. So pleasant we decided to go back a few weeks later.
Flash forward to my second visit. Upon arrival to pay our admission, there was a young lady behind the counter having a conversation with a fellow employee. I didn’t pay attention to the conversation until I heard her drop the F bomb. I was in so much shock I just froze. Collected our nickels and went about our way.
After we were done playing, we went to the prize counter. The young lady was still behind the counter by the register; still carrying on with her inappropriate conversation about hooking up with some boy.
I sent an email to the email address on the companies website but I did not receive a reply.
I have not been back since but if she is there, I will ask to speak to the person in charge.
Pros:
–Snack bar available
–GAMES ARE JUST A NICKEL
–several games offered
–wide variety of prizes
–laser tag
–movie theatre

Can’t really go wrong at a nickel arcade. I’ve discovered that some machines need to have the nickels inserted one at a time while waiting for the coin deposited sound to play. Several times there was no acknowledgement when nickels were inserted and I had to use several extras to fill in the gap. Some games run out and of tickets and will continue to let you play, only to find out it’s empty and my 7yo wants them for the prize redemption at the end of the day. Well, what more can you ask for, as some games are 4 nickels at most, so it’s no sweating the extra coinage drops. Decent movies that had been out approximately 3−4months and some in 3D as well.
Keep in mind, they state no in and out privileges, so make sure you have everything needed before going in. There’s a small entrance fee to get in and no need to run to the grocery store for nickels, as you can get them there.

I agree with one of the previous posters that described this place as a madhouse. I’ve been here twice with kids and each time it has been disorganized chaos. Having to pay for admission is just completely stupid to begin with, then of course if you need to return to your car you have to pay admission again. FAIL.
There are really no distinguished lines, so half of the time you don’t know if you’re standing in line for more nickels, or if you’re standing in line to pay for admission. The line to cash in your tokens? Forget about it, it’s just a horde of kids and parents all crowded up at the counter trying to cash in their tickets at once.
This is place is just too chaotic and crazy to actually enjoy your time here. The only redeeming quality is the movie theater, and possibly the laser tag.

I took a friend’s kid here one weekend. He had never been to a nickel arcade. He really enjoyed it and had soooo much fun. He especially loved the laser tag. A great place for kids.
My only gripe is the video games all seem to be from the late 90’s or early 200’s, with the exception of a few. Wish there was newer stuff.

Bright and fun arcade atmosphere, but that’s about the only good thing I can say for this place. It was a MADHOUSE. Yes its a nickel arcade, but they don’t tell you the games are mostly two to four nickels to play and the ticket payout is a big disappointment.
The way this place was organized is the biggest reason I won’t be back. Let me explain.
1) You pay admission to get in and they give you an admission ticket, but if you so much as have to walk to the car for a diaper, you are charged to come back in. what’s the point of the admission ticket?
2) You have to stand at the same, extremely unorganized counter to pay admission, get tickets, snacks and prizes. So its very, very cramped, with no distinguishable lines. Right at the front door no less.
3) Lack of employee involvement. There were kids throwing the basketball to the hoops for a game from across the room, hitting other patrons in the process and no one came by to say a word. At the prize counter, we watched a woman literally walk behind the counter and fill her purse with handfuls of candy. Pure crazy.
Maybe the clean, organized atmosphere at Big Al’s has spoiled us, but this place was just ridiculous. I’d rather make the drive to Al’s over going back to Wunderland anyday to avoid that mess.

Smells like feet.
I came here this past rainy weekend for a Birthday party and it was SO busy inside! It was hot, sweaty and smelly. Most games are more than one nickel, which is fine, because its only a nickel but still. I also noticed a lot of the games weren’t actually giving out tickets and that kinda sucks. The laser tag was fun though! and the prices are pretty damn decent if you have a bunch of kids.
