I'm 32 and still enjoy playing video games. For anyone who has gone, do you think DisneyQuest is worth a visit?

Also, I've heard that there are costs for some of the attractions in addition to the admission price.

While the technology at Disneyquest is not nearly as cutting-edge as it was when it first opened, I think that it can be fun if you had never been before. The only thing not included in the admission are the old arcade style games I believe. All of the real attractions are part of your admission ticket.

The only time I have been to Disney Quest (quite a few years ago), it was a "perk" added to a package so it cost us nothing. I personally would not find it worth the additional money. If you are an avid fan of what Disney Quest has to offer, you may want to give it a try.

Is there anything at all that is extra? The Unofficial Guidebook mentions extra costs but doesn't elaborate.

Found this hope it helps

Price

Except for prize-play (claw) machines and photo booths, all games and attractions inside DisneyQuest are free after admission is paid. Depending on daily attendance levels, late-night tickets are sometimes sold for half-price two hours prior to closing each night.

When DisneyQuest was first opened it had a lower admission fee but each attraction and game required a player to swipe a card to pay "credits" for it, and the card could be "recharged" by putting it and some money into a recharging station, similar to Dave & Buster's gaming restaurants. Within a few years this was changed to a single flat fee for entry, and the cards and readers were no longer used. The card readers continued to be used for a few years as means to insert credits (the card readers were set to free mode, and pressing the green "OK" button would insert a credit), but as new games moved in and old ones were retired, the card readers began to vanish as the machines were simply set to free play within the games themselves and, while a few can still be found, they are incredibly scarce today, and have all been disabled completely.

One section of the fourth floor, called "Midway on the Moon," was devoted to redemption games. These games were not included in the admission cost of DisneyQuest, and still used the swipe cards even after the rest of the facility switched to free-play. Players could exchange tickets won at these games of skill for various prizes. However, in late 2005, the games were converted to free play and no longer dispense tickets.

Certain attractions have souvenirs available for purchase in the second floor Guest Gallery. Cyberspace Mountain has an available video of the created roller coaster, with footage of the guests riding the attraction. The Animation Academy, Sid's Create-A-Toy, the Living Easels and Radio Disney Song Maker all offer the option of purchasing created items.

THanks, hope this is the case when I go. Was thinking of doing this on the day I arrive for our next trip. We have to drive, and will be arriving probably late afternoon or early evening. We'll all be wore out from the long drive, and wouldn't want to waste a day's ticket for one of the parks.
