The Wonderful World of Whimsy (Sembawang)

The Wonderful World of Whimsy is a neighbourhood arcade on level 2 of Sembawang Shopping Centre, one of the few in the far north.

It covers the basics across a small floor: claw machines, redemption games feeding a prize counter, and a handful of rhythm cabinets. It is modest by the standards of the mall chains, and its appeal is proximity — for families in Sembawang and Yishun it is considerably closer than Northpoint or Causeway Point.

Boulder Planet’s climbing gym is in the same mall, which is useful if there is an older child who has outgrown this one. For a full-sized arcade the nearest is Timezone at Causeway Point.
