New York, NY
Who: All ages
Mom's view: If you like to play pinball, you will love Modern Pinball NYC. Even if you don't like to play pinball, it is still a really fun place. It is like a museum of pinball. They have some really unique and interesting pinball machines from all different eras. Our favorite was a Wizard of Oz pinball machine complete with a house that can spin as if hit by a Cyclone, scary looking trees, and ruby slippers as flippers. The game actually plays clips of the movie as well. Other pinball machines available include ones based on CSI, The Walking Dead, Terminator, Avatar, Monopoly and The Simpsons. Modern Pinball NYC is not just for adults and big kids. Stools are available so smaller kids can reach the games. Another great thing about Modern Pinball NYC is that you don't have to worry about scrounging for coins or buying endless tokens to play. You pay for the amount of time you want to play and you have unlimited play for that time period. You can even leave and come back and the period of time you were gone will not count as part of the play time you paid for. Modern Pinball also offers birthday parties as well as science lessons for schools and camps during which classes will actually be able to see and examine an opened pinball machine. Modern Pinball is open every day from 11:00am to midnight. For more information go to
