Parental Release Form for Minor Gamers

The goal of Game Haven is to be a place for game enthusiasts of all ages to socialize and play the games they love. Minors between the ages of 13 and 17 are welcome to be here unattended until 10:30 pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights. Friday and Saturday nights, Minors between the age of 13 and 17 may stay unattended until 11:30 pm in compliance with St. Louis County Curfew Laws.

Children under the age of 13 are welcome in Game Haven as long as a parent or legal guardian attends to them at all times.

We require some form of picture ID from all patrons over the age of 13, and Game Haven employees will do their best to follow ESRB guidelines for age appropriate gaming.

The space at Game Haven is set up into several open stations, each with a different game system. There are no dividers, while moving to one station, a gamer will likely have to pass by a number of other stations.
