• Entry prices cluster between MOP 1,199 and 1,299. Only East Castle (2,188), Clube Rio (2,888) and Victoria (1,598) sit higher.
• Earliest opening 12:00 (The Excellent), latest 16:00 (Clube Rio). Turning up at three in the afternoon to a four o'clock venue is a wasted trip.
• Two venues have no overnight option: The Excellent Sauna and Manhao Spa. Rule them out first if you need a bed.

Theme rooms included at the lowest price band on the list — a rare combination. Open until 07:00, so a late finish is possible.

Script-game play is the headline; it works better with a group. The wet area is bigger than at the same price elsewhere.

The widest theme-room range (DJ room, cinema, hospital sets), but no overnight stay. Skip it if you plan to stay the night.

The maths works best in pairs. Renovated after reopening, so rooms are brighter than before. Opens at 13:00.

KTV and theme rooms both, and BOGO runs often — ask what is on before booking.

Service charge included, so the quote is the bill. Entry from 2,188 is a step up and worth it only if the theme is the reason.

A short walk from the Cotai strip hotels, and entry is still 1,199 — no Taipa premium.

From 1,199, open until 06:00 with full overnight arrangements.

The show stage is the focus; service charge is 5% + 5% on two lines, and there is no overnight stay.

From 2,888, the highest entry on the list, with drinks included. Doors at 16:00.
