Tokyo Joypolis

It was packed of people due to spring break. But if you are fan of SEGA:Sonic, (like my son) you will definitely liked it! The weather today is not that great, so this amusement park is a covered centre. Great especially if it’s raining! I booked from Klook (for adult buy 1 take 1), so I just bought seperate for my son. So easy, just go over to the counter to get exchange a proper ticket. Went inside to the 2nd floor you’ll see sonic statue! If you came at noon, most ride waiting is 30 to 60 minutes. So many games kind a Timezone in Australia. Food wise, nothing fancy. Just not to get hungry :-) For me, this is only Good for one visit!

Joypolis is an indoor amusement park with a wide variety of rides and attractions. If you’re a fan of Sega, you’ll love what they have in stall. From Sadako (The Ring) themed attractions to Sonic and Groove Coaster themed rides and Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney side attractions, Joypolis contains a plethora of rides and attractions. Joypolis does not have as many thrilling rides apart from their Geki-On Live coaster and Half-Pipe however their other rides and attractions are still fun and some were even quite scary (The Sadako one especially). You can expect to spend about 3-6 hours here depending on the queues. If you’re entering during opening time, I highly recommend everyone to queue for the high-demand rides first such as the Geki-On Live coaster and Half-Pipe as the queue times can get as long as to 80 minutes during peak hours. In terms of food, there is a food cafe available as well as vending machines that dispenses ice-cream and bottled/canned drinks. Joypolis also has a souvenir shop that you can buy gifts and mementos from although the prices can be a bit pricey. It is highly recommended to get the Joypolis passport ticket. The passport ticket includes every single ride and attraction in the amusement park and is excellent value for money. Alternatively, if you only have one or two rides that you want to ride, the admission ticket is about ¥1200 for adults and the rides range from ¥700-¥1000 per ride. Tickets can be bought in advance on platforms like Klook or on the day itself at the ticketing booth. It is recommended to buy the tickets in advance as the queues for the ticketing booth can be long during peak hours. Overall, I’ve been to Joypolis twice and had a great time on both occasions. I can certainly recommend it for people looking for a fun-filled and great time at Odaiba.

Great 3 story virtual/actual/digital game/ ride room. Go to their online site to track wait times. Try to go during weekdays when it’s not a national holiday or you will cue for long waits. 2 great cafes with one of them overlooking the river and Rainbow bridge! Use Klook to purchase tickets!

Closes early. Got there 1.5 hours before closing and was able to fit in 2 events. Value add it you are already down here to see the Gundam. Would recommend the unlimited pass only and maybe 3-4 hours. Definitely better than anything in America - so it's worth doing at least once!

Located in a shopping mall. Fun place packed with rides. Reasonable waiting times and plenty of places to sit and rest while the kids play. Not very crowded in weekday. Unfortunately some rides are in Japanese. Can spend a day here. There are shopping areas and Daiso in this mall.
