Gameplay
[edit]Players are taken back to the '80s/early '90s[6] and are put inside a retro arcade room. In the game, players are able to interact with mini-games including Bowling, Air Hockey Skeeball, and more. Inside the room itself are usable objects such as Guitars, Drum Machines and Light Guns.[7] The main feature of the game focuses on customisation and being able to emulate your favourite arcade games, by using any of the 30 arcade cabinets.[8] The game also supports Non-VR.
Reception
[edit]UploadVR favoured the game for its authenticity and how Digital Cybercherries do an excellent job of capturing the vibe and atmosphere.[9]
