I’m passionate about the continued growth of the Castle Quarter – trading at Castle Arcade for the past 40 years, I’ve witnessed its hospitality-driven transformation. We tried several different sizes, and quarter scale met our goals. And as proof about how the machines play, we’ve even had someone finish all 256 levels of Pac-Manon his Quarter Arcade!
