    related to this, anyone have favourite places in sydney for catcher machines?

    • tallkid123 on 06/03/2023 - 11:47

      I had a bit of luck a few weeks back at Macquarie Park.

      Chatswood doesn't have much range with the machines.

      Haymarket is incredibly rigged.

      • jace88 on 11/03/2023 - 14:16
        +1

        Haymarket Timezone, or Haymarket Capitol?

        I've won a llama plushie at the Timezone before in Market City so it's do-able and the staff were pretty helpful with moving things around. Total spend that day was <$10.

        I find TImezone Chatswood the hardest though - won one thing but took a lot of tries so definitely not a great ROI. I found the staff there don't really move things much if you ask them and if you stuff everything together so it's tightly pressed, it's not really winnable IMO.

        That being said, my favourite place is Timezone Top Ryde. Maybe it's my luck or the weather but I always win something within a few tries there and the staff are always very helpful with repositioning things to make it possible.

        The above is all just an anecdotal experience though.

          Haymarket Timezone.

          Struggle everytime I go there.

          I usually clean up at Macquarie Park. Last time I was there, I won 5 prizes and pissed off all the parents with their kids standing nearby.

          Chatswood is bad.

    • Dealor on 07/03/2023 - 13:50

      Haymarket is the place to go, easy cheesy piece of cake ;)

  • sistermay on 06/03/2023 - 11:32

    May I ask how much is it per game ? There isn't much to do at night in Brisbane so going to Timezone could be fun but just not sure how many games I can play if I only want to spend $30 max per night. :)

    • loulou1 on 06/03/2023 - 11:35

      For $30 you can get two games of bowling, 20 minutes arcade credit, 200 points and a 600ml drink at garden city Qld venue
      I don’t think you can combine this with the offer posted here though

    • DarkSide on 06/03/2023 - 11:35

      i cant remember off top my head also depends on the tier

    • Jessie Ryder on 06/03/2023 - 11:47

      Timezones are different, some games the duration is shorter per venues.

      My favorite is Sunshine Coast followed by Garden City (busy).

    • Ryoon on 06/03/2023 - 13:47

      games price vary but I see that it's $2.4 with VIP discount (if you charge over $50 you get blue membership and you can play at the discounted price) instead of $2.6 standard price. some game are extremely short while some others like PUMP (Korean version of DDR) gives 3 songs (potentially 4 songs if you pass 3 games with S grade) that will last somewhere 10 minutes for $2.4.
      Mini Bowling is $6 approx, I take turn with kids and take about 10 minutes of play, VR game I've played 2 of them pricing is little different (Rabbit one for $4.5, Kingkong $6 approx ) and this last about 5 minutes of play, all pricings are based on my memory and can be slightly different. I'm holding gold membership, benefit listed there on the app, I get 1 game per each day but this also have specific games I can play which I only knew recently,

        i must be old af. i remember that i spent 20-30mins on fighter games with a single coin… not that i'm good, but everyone else didn't want to waste their coins so we all 'queued'.

          I feel like I’m saying goodbye to a loved one forever. Consoles were the best & worst thing to happen, it seems. Just like streaming/home theatre has ‘kinda’ brought cinemas to the home.

          Gaming and arcades were a huge part of my life, growing-up. But that was 20cents at a time. Went to one on a bucks night a few months back. Priceless. And introduced macho tradies to StarWars VR. Melted their brains. Mint!

          $100 at Timezone is one great session, but money better spent on permanent stuff at home.

          Maybe I’ll drop $100 for each of my kids, and just say my goodbyes to arcades.

  • leeroys_dad on 06/03/2023 - 11:38
    +8

    Each game is pretty much minimum $2.50
    4 games for $10 and you might get 30 tickets.
    In saying that, it's great fun with kiddies but the money runs out VERY quickly.

    I find the best value/fun is the water pistol game with the kids

    • Jonzay on 06/03/2023 - 13:23
      +2

      Definitely not money/ticket efficient with kids or playing casually, but if you go into it on your own and not with fun in mind, certain machines are skill based (no RNG, no rigging) and allow you to win the 400/500 ticket jackpot every time.

      If you minmax enough with discounted gift cards and double dollars redemption, you can eek out a profit by redeeming your tickets for TVs and selling them on FB Marketplace

      • leeroys_dad on 06/03/2023 - 13:31

        oh nice! which games are skill based?

        • Jonzay on 06/03/2023 - 14:41
          +2

          The Vault is probably the easiest one to master, and the most consistent: https://primetimeamusements.com/product/the-vault/

          There are also tricks with claw machines that have a "second chance wheel" on the back wall where you can win tickets if you didn't get a prize - the claw machine part is rigged of course, but the wheel is skill based and while it only gives 1 chance per fail, it stacks the number of collected chances until they are consumed or the machine is switched off and back on. Since everyone just sees it as a claw machine with "flashy lights", most of the time the second chance wheel is ignored and you can come along, tap once, fail once and then get a pretty easy 100 tickets per banked up second chance attempt. The best I've ever gotten in one session was around 1500 tickets from a single "tap" on the claw machine. Only downside is you can't see how many banked up chances there are, only that there is at least one.

      WILL MY TIMEZONE GAME CREDIT AND POWERTICKETS EXPIRE?
      Powercards will expire 12 months from the last in-venue use date, at which time any unused balance and Powertickets will be forfeited. App reloads do not count towards extending your Powercard expiry.

    • Jonzay on 06/03/2023 - 13:24

      Just poke a claw machine once every few months and you're set

    • slowmo on 06/03/2023 - 13:47

      from my experience, i have trouble getting the credit last during a session than the credit lasting in the card lol.

      put in $200…. annnnnd it's gone.

    • Yoo05 on 11/03/2023 - 10:18

      @greenlantern
      No it doesnt, the card expires if not used for 12 consecutive months, so if you use it today, your 12 months start from today and then say if you go again in 6 months, 12 month count will start again.

  • lesher on 06/03/2023 - 12:40

      Ringwood Eastland have time crisis one of recent version

      I just searched and I think it's Time Crisis 5,

      I played once and it look very similar. Game machine is pretty new and came to the Timezone Ringwood less than year ago

      • lesher on 06/03/2023 - 18:32

        Dang, at least one hour of commuting from CBD to get there, pretty far but thanks regardless

  • funnysht on 06/03/2023 - 13:29

    If you already have timezone app ..then can you still use this..i.e not for new registrations?

    • Cyphar on 06/03/2023 - 15:32

      Correct. As long as you've registered your card in the app you can top up through it.

  • nephilim on 06/03/2023 - 13:41

    • truetypezk on 07/03/2023 - 00:05

      I am pretty sure it works with timed play cards. Maybe bring a friend and he can use the card on other games while you play.

        Sure maybe can bribe a 10 year old at a bday party to tap me on.

      Yes, my local Kingpin was advertising the double credit during the Valentines Day promo

      Edit: Noticed you’re in ACT, the Canberra Civic Kingpin was advertising it during the last promo. The Kingpin card should also work at the Zone Bowling in Belco since the Timezone system is cross shared

    Currently in a case with them where they have stolen few thousand AUD of arcade credit and Powertickets from me. They added the term "App reloads do not count towards extending your Powercard expiry." in December without notice (terms of Powercards do not say they can change without notice), applied it retroactively and zeroed my account.

    Had half a million Powertickets and few thousand $ credit.

    May not matter if you are just playing for fun and loading only $50-100 but this business is dodgy. Just be careful if you are loading big amounts..

    • Thaos on 06/03/2023 - 18:56

      So how do you find out your credit and power ticket expiry? I’ve got about 250k tickets I don’t want to lose.

      • eagerfisherman on 06/03/2023 - 21:22
        +2

        Walk in to any Timezone and scan any game once every 12months.

        This person had the scenario where they reloaded thousands and didn't enter a Timezone for 12months? The terms are:

        "Powercards will expire 12 months from the last in-venue use date, at which time any unused balance and Powertickets will be forfeited. App reloads do not count towards extending your Powercard expiry."

        Otherwise if that wasn't their scenario, they're still within the terms and should continue to fight it.

        • takutox on 07/03/2023 - 01:09
          +3

          Yes, the exact part you bolded (as well as the app reload part) was just recently changed without notice when they retroactively zeroed my card. The "in-venue" was not there at the times I reloaded. They have gone out of their way to suddenly change T&C without any notice at the end of last year and applied this to past customers.

          It would be like if you suddenly without notice expired all velocity points by adding a condition that online top-ups don't extend expiry then apply that in the past to anyone who has bought online top-ups.

            +1

            @takutox: The change in terms makes sense tbh but the execution definitely is very very bad.

            How hard would it have been to notify customers to scan once as the terms were changing? This does look like a set up to expunge some too large accounts. Doubt it's worth fighting in court but hopefully you can find some avenues of justice.

            • takutox on 13/03/2023 - 17:56

              @eagerfisherman: Yeah, I would say the execution was purposeful and malicious. You can see the only change they have made was done multiple times on multiple pages on multiple dates to "patch" this specific thing in particular and screw certain customers (I would not be surprised if I was manually zeroed and targeted)

      • takutox on 07/03/2023 - 01:11
        +3

        Just have to physically go into a store and scan your card once at least every 12 months.

        Though in my case I had mine removed after this "in-venue" term was randomly added without notice at the end of last year.

          Horrible story mate but why did you have all that credit and tickets on there?

          Surely you must be one of their top tier customers and they'd have your details and want your business.

            +1

            @King Steuart: For the bigger amounts, I loaded up big during discounts and double dollars so there is incentive to do big loads together if you visit often as you maximize value. You can redeem bigger amount for laptops / phones.

            And nope, looks like they are happy and actually went out of their way to wipe out $4k and don't value whatsoever, since I already spent the money with them.

          Depends what you're aiming to do.

          Can't earn tickets or play claw machines, "skill" games etc on package deals.

          Depends when you go, where you go and what machines you're looking to play. Difficult to judge, you'd have to just test it out in your area.

          For example, Minecraft Dungeons, single play is like $2.50? You get a good 10mins out of that (after some skill gain). You can play there for an hour on $15. 60mins is $28. Not so good, probably still 5mins, pretty generous game, so you'd just break even.

          So yeah, really depends :) Factor in wait times etc, who knows. I like the flexibility of pure credit, these promos help.
