Hitting the arcades in Poznań? Play smarter:

• Ask about free-play nights at Pixel XL. Some venues run flat-fee evenings where everything's unlimited. The best value in arcading, when you find it.
• Don't feed a broken machine at CyberMachina. If it eats your credit without starting, tell staff immediately. Good venues refund; all venues should know.
• Check for party packages. Birthday parties at arcades are a whole industry. If you're organising one, book ahead — weekends sell out.
