A few months ago, our family discovered the joys of playing games at Tom’s World. It was not our first time at Tom’s World; we’ve actually been there a few times before, but it was only recently that our kids appreciated the arcade games. Previously, since they were smaller at that time, they were only interested in the rides (car, carousel, and truck).
Moreover, we realized that some of the games were also good activities for Miguel to improve his hand-eye coordination. In particular, Miguel and Rafa both love the Water Fantasy game. It’s just a simple game in which the players choose a scene (ocean, volcano, outer space) and from there, “villains” would appear and attack the player. On the other hand, the players would have to expel the attackers using a water cannon, which they would have to aim at the villains.

At first, I would direct Miguel by pointing at the villains that he would have to shoot or by guiding his hands as he held the water cannon. After several games, though, he was able to improve his grip, and he began to shoot the villains on his own. He also loves the car racing games, but I think he was more interested in the graphics and the fast movement of the vehicles.

Meanwhile, Rafa loves the shooting game, and I have observed that he has good aim. He was always able to shoot a good number of basketballs in each game. Rafa also likes the Fright Night game, in which monsters would pop out from their holes, and the player would have to bang the monsters with a hammer. I think this is a pretty entertaining game that Miguel also loves. We had him try it once, and he was able to hit a few monsters.
On a further note, we also appreciated some of the games in which we can win a lot of tickets. It was only later on that I realized that you could accumulate tickets and exchange them for items like toys, candies, and even small appliances. We also got a VIP card, which meant that we could take advantage of free tokens every time we visit.
I think Tom’s World is a great entertainment hub for the whole family. Do you also like to visit Tom’s World with your kids?
