Major games manufacturer LAI Games suggests its top 10 tips for FEC and arcade game room layout
WHAT DOES A SUCCESSFUL DAY LOOK LIKE IN YOUR VENUE? We’re sure it’s a game room packed full of happy guests. Our top 10 game room layout tips are designed to help maximise your success in your FEC and arcade without breaking the bank. While you may be using some of these tips already, you’re sure to find at least a few gems here.
1. YOUR ENTRANCE Your entrance sets your guests’ expectations as soon as they step inside, or, depending on your location, walk past your venue. If you’re in a thoroughfare this tip is even more important, because your entrance acts as an advertisement for every potential customer walking past. Make the entrance of your arcade space large and inviting. Position new and exciting pieces near the entry that encourage customers to step inside for a closer look. Make sure there is plenty of visibility into the rest of the game room and your other attractions. Games featuring energetic music and lighting effects tend to make good entry pieces because the frenetic activity they bring begs for attention and creates entertainment for onlookers.
