Ignite Gaming Lounge - Skokie

Just moved to the skokie area... I came here strictly because they had StepmaniaX dedicated arcade cabinet- the cabinet is beautiful and it's in great condition. However, the price is extremely high. 1 swipe gives you 1 song to play, which is almost 4x higher than a normal arcade. Plus, when you only get 1 song, you have to swipe again and completely re-start your game, so you can't get a good steady workout in or play a decent set. The national standard at an arcade for this type of game is 3 songs per credit/swipe. The bare minimum should be 2 songs. Either way, I really would love to come here more often and support this venue(I'd be there 2-3 days per week) but I can't justify the cost. Even on the half price and 25% off days, it's still wildly expensive compared to any other arcade(it's even more than d&b and round1, which is saying something). Anyways, great place, great vibe, but I really wish they would revisit the pricing for this particular game- it's honestly just unreasonably expensive. It might just be a clerical mistake or nobody's paid mind to it after setting it up- at least with how much it costs, you would think that's the case. In any event, thank you for bringing another dance game to the chicago area!

I went for the first time with a friend and had a great time. The staff are very kind. I wish the arcade games weren't so expensive though

Bring back the deluxe milkshakes!!! RIP literally the only milkshakes I ever liked in my life. If you can only bring back one let it be the rainbow one pleaseeee.

Prices change all the time but it's really fun with friends

Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. I wish we had a place like this in Milwaukee!
