A perfect place for any retro gamer and also new-gen gamers, where everyone can enjoy playing some vintage games like Donkey Kong, Air Raid, Mario, Sonic, Quake, etc.
Great place full of old and working machines, you can also play a lot of older games there - truly a blast from the past. There is also a lot of older computer & games related magazines so that you can read a bit too.
We got off to a bad start with this place. it was supposed to be open at 10:00 a.m. but it was not I ended up calling the number and there was a mix-up on the opening time and they did not get there till 11:30 am. That is the reason for 1 star subtraction but they gave me my ticket for 50% off for us having to wait 1.5 hours. Once we got past this issue this is a great place to visit. I would just call to confirm that they're open before you make the trip. I will give you some tips to help you.
1. it is located down the stairs in the metro area not above ground. so if you use Google maps make sure you walk down the stairs you'll see a long corridor I have taken pictures of both the long corridor and of the stairs you need to go down. I also took a picture at the entrance from both outside and inside.
2. price for entry includes all day so you can leave and come back you just have to keep the ticket and return later.
3. they have many consoles with whole bunch of different types of games I would recommend you trying out several games all you have to do is ask the person at the counter that you want to play a certain game they are listed right next to each console.
4. I have attached a price list in my pictures also.
5. they have several different kinds of computers so you can play games or create lan games like we did and we played Counter-Strike for several hours.
6. there are bathrooms to the left once you walk in the front door in this area be careful as the floor is easy to trip on if you don't look down.
7. if you're into retro games and retro console games this is the place they had so many different things to offer you could literally spend hours here it is great for older people who want to relive their childhood and it's great for parents to show the games we played as kids such as Mario Brothers.
Surprisingly large space - long hall in the underground passage. It is live museum with old machines with different retro games. Your kids will definitely refuse to leave 🙂. Fortunately there is 80's style corner with comfy armchairs and historic computer publications for tired parents. …
Very nice place, you can play many games on various platforms, which also includes PC along with a large range of retro console generations. Computer magazines are also available for reading. Staff is friendly and provides useful information.
Amazing experience. Can spend literal hours playing on various retro consoles at what I deem to be a very reasonable cost of 30 zloty. The owner was very friendly, explained how to use the machines and was always available to help if you ran into issues.
You are also allowed to go out and eat and then come back again without buying a 2nd ticket. Overall an amazing experience and highly recommended.
It was really cool to come back to my childhood, I saw there my first phone Siemens A52 and played games where my journey begins :)
Absolutely worth to visit, you can play old school how much you want whenever it suits for you, weekend or other days ;)
Thank you for giving such great experience <3
I great place to go if you are into games. The guy that works there was very helpful and was also giving us some trivia as well. We really had fun.
