CLOSED UNTIL MARCH FOR FLOOR RENOVATION. Marty's Playland is more then just a video arcade, we are family fun place, part of Ocean City history and one of the nicest and affordable vacation accommodations in town!
Since 1930's we have been providing entertainment for all age groups. Located on the corner of boardwalk and Worcester street Marty's Playland is only in 5 min stroll from the ocean.
Inside the arcade you will find a large selection of video , redemption, pinball, bowlingo and air hockey games. Also stop by to see our famous antique skeeball and miniature cranes of the diggerville that are around 100 years old.
So weather you want to take a memorable Black & White photo, win a big stuffed animal from a Giant Crane, check your IQ in Trivia Game, try your luck in poker, breed a racehorse in Derby Owners Club or just want to get lost in the lights, prizes and music - Marty's Playland is the place to be!

I expected first weekend of the 2026 season for everything to be working.
Our issue could be we were trying to use coins instead of new digital cards, the machines kept taking money (wasn't due to not paying attention to credits required to play). Staff was willing to reimburse, but the need for assistance regarding issues takes away the fun. Even the pinball games were jamming and losing the ball.
The skee ball, one did not release balls, two while hitting minimal score to win did not disperse tickets.
The old claw machines which were the main reason for going to Marty's have dwindled down to like 5 machines, cost 0.25 to play, and are not stocked in a fashion living up to the spirit of these machines. There are plenty of penny toys these machines could be stocked with not a few plastic teeth or foam darts. I played a machine with a scattered bounce balls I won a scoop of plastic rocks, yep, I brought them home.

My grandkids Love this arcade. They actually have 25 cent Skeeball!!! The prize selection is very nice. The biggest hit this week was the Pokémon Cards in the claw machine!!! They also did very well with the machine that is full of rings of Marty's tickets. Marty's continues to be one of thd first and last things on their list of THINGS TO DO LIST at the beach.

They have a pretty wide variety of games. Some vintage machines as well.
The older machines are cool to see - Ski ball is a highlight for sure.
The pinball selection is limited, and two of their machines had sticky bumpers, but we still had a great time here.
