The memories that were made here were amazing! This was such an amazing place to visit. Yes the building was outdated and things were super rough. Yes the games had some issues but all people really had to do was let the employees know and they will gladly give you tokens back that were lost in the games, trust me we hated that the games took tokens as much as you all did; But to be fair, when other customers were beating them, breaking the games among other things it's hard to keep up with the damages the customers were doing to the games which causes 99% of the token issues you all were having. I wish the employees the best of luck branching out after Magic Mountain Closes Today 7-5-26

To everyone who worked here: You guys were amazing. You guys were my childhood. Even though kids would run up and break the games sometimes: You guys felt like an arcade. You didn't feel soulless like many of the other arcades around Ohio(I won't say names, but there's a "Legacy" of arcades that have games from the "16-Bit" era that have let me down regarding a pinball machine where you "gotta catch em all" as of 2026), and I appreciate that. I also appreciate your mini-golf which fealt like real mini-golf, instead of "being cooped up in a shack" somewhere indoors. Its heartbreaking to see you guys go. You all were a Columbus Ohio staple and I will miss you greatly. Thanks again for the memories.
