How to Win at the Arcade

Arcade Game Hacks

We all love to play arcade games—and we really love the tickets. Check out the tips below to help you win big next time you are at the arcade!

So Many Games, So Little Time

Nothing has the same allure as an arcade game. Whether it’s an old school pinball machine, a drop game, or interactive digital, it’s a blast to test your skills with and against your friends. The music and the lights just add to the fun.

A big part of the arcade experience is being rewarded when we win those games of skill. Having rolls of tickets hanging off your shoulder is like a badge that says, “I’m the king of the concourse.” Getting prizes is great, but just the act of watching those tickets pop out can be addictive. 

The question is, can you find hacks to win more tickets? Yes, you can. It’s nothing sneaky or illegal—it’s more about your technique. Nomads Adventure Quest has over 110 games, so we can’t show you how to take control of the whole place, but we can offer some insights on winning tickets at a couple of the most popular games.

Scoring More at Skee-Ball

Skee-Ball just might be the best test of skill, agility, and touch on the concourse. It can also offer a ton of tickets if your technique is up to scratch. Here are a few tips to help raise your Skee-Ball game and make the ticket counter sing.
  • It’s all about positioning. Your stance and balance can help dictate your accuracy. Stand with the foot that corresponds with your throwing hand braced against the alley, with your other foot behind you to maintain balance. Think of this as the foundation of your shot. If you maintain the same position for every throw, it creates more consistency for your follow-through. 
  • Get low. When you crouch or bend a bit when rolling your ball, you get a better view of the lane. It might seem a little counter-intuitive, so it takes practice. Be patient.
  • Aim for the 40-point ring. Sure, it would be great to hit the 50-point ring every try, but the 40-point ring is easier to hit. And if you do it consistently, you can maximize your point total. If, for example, you’re throwing 9 balls, you end up with 360 points—an excellent score worth a lot of tickets.
Practice, practice, practice. The more you play, the better your skills and technique and the more you win. It’s all about the tickets, baby!

Taming the Tower of Tickets 

Tower of Tickets is one of the most popular arcade games. Why? Because it gives out a ton of tickets. In this case, winning definitely takes skill. Here are a few tips that can help you tame the Tower: 
  • Timing. The skill lies in timing your sweep to push the Tower of Tickets bundles off the platform onto the rotating playing field. 
  • Work the delay. After you win any amount of tickets, there will be a delay when the arm comes down on the next play, so take that into account when considering your timing. 
  • Use the “Win” sign to your advantage. Hit the button just as the highest-ticket value puck reaches the middle of the word “Win” printed above the button to your right. 
  • Go big. Go for the 1,000-ticket puck every time you get the chance. 
  • Be quick. It is extremely hard to win back-to-back, 1,000-ticket pucks, but it can be done. You need to press the button quickly and work with the timing of the delay of the arm. 
  • Practice, practice, practice (again). As with any great game, it requires practice to perfect your timing. But, once you get it down, you can expect to sweep your way into a bunch of tickets.
