It can be hard to find a family activity that will please all ages (hello, teenagers) but Flying Squirrel’s arcade in south Calgary checks every box when it comes to family fun—from the tiniest toddler to the eldest adult. Here’s why gamers keep coming back:

 

Rewards are just the beginning

Ask any kid, and they'll tell you: prizes make everything better, from visits to the dentist to already fun experiences such as hitting up the arcade with your family. Flying Squirrel South Calgary’s arcade is prize-oriented, and the best part is, everything is automated. The self-serve prize machine allows players to redeem points earned from games. Kids can swipe their card, select a prize, and avoid the hassle of long lines for prize redemption. This makes it a more efficient and enjoyable arcade experience for both kids and parents in Calgary.

Core memories made and shared

Remember the thrill of playing your first arcade game as a kid? Discovering a whole new world of excitement and adventure? Sharing those moments with your kids is pure joy. That’s why Flying Squirrel south Calgary’s classic arcade games have a special place in our hearts. We’ve all experienced the exhilarating and maddening joy that is The Claw Machine. And it must be a teenage right of passage to challenge your friends to an Air Hockey battle. Another fan favourite is the Basketball Shootout. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of competing to sink the most baskets in a given time.

The social experience

Video games are so fun and add a lot of value to everyday life, but they can be isolating when only played at home. The best part of gaming at Flying Squirrel’s arcade in south Calgary is the built-in social experience of competing and hanging out with fellow gamers. You might meet your new bff over a shared game of skeeball. Or maybe you’ll compete against the top level scorer in a NERF shoot out so you can really test your skills. Either way, you’re guaranteed to have some bonding time with buddies or make a new friend at the arcade.
