About
Build and manage your ultimate retro arcade! Buy classic Arcade Machines, Galaxy Pinball, and Gift Claw games, or invest in Cinema 8D, Go-Karts, and Racing Simulators. Manage the economy, hire staff, and keep every machine running!
Step into the neon-lit world of the past and build the ultimate entertainment center in Retro Arcade Shop Simulator. Start with a humble, dusty venue and gradually transform it into a booming, large-scale arcade business. Buy nostalgic arcade cabinets, organize your floor plan to maximize customer flow, and watch the tokens roll in. Whether you want to recreate a cozy 80s hangout spot or build a massive, multi-room gaming paradise, you have the tools to bring your retro tycoon dreams to life.
Growing your business takes more than plugging in a few machines. You’ll need to manage a token economy across four different currencies, watch your hourly income, and take out bank loans to fund your expansions.
Unlock up to 10 unique rooms and fill them with a variety of attractions. Offer your customers classic Air Hockey, Pinball, and Whack-A-Mole, or invest in high-end Plane Simulators, Bowling Alleys, Go-Kart tracks, and immersive 8D Cinemas. When crowds get overwhelming, hire cashiers, cafeteria workers, and token collectors so no customer ever waits in line.
Make the arcade truly yours with deep interior customization. Choose from dozens of wall and floor textures, add vibrant graffiti murals, and set the perfect mood with neon lighting, signs, and decorative plants. You’ll also need to keep your customers fueled by managing a cafeteria - serve burgers, pour drinks, and sell gaming magazines or CDs to maximize your daily profits.
Heavy use takes its toll. Cabinets break down, screens go dark, and a dead machine is a machine that isn't making you money. Service and repair your hardware, mop the floors, empty the token boxes, and keep the whole venue in working order. Do it all yourself to save money in the early days, then hire repairmen and cleaners once the crowds get too big to handle alone. Blend relaxing business progression with an unforgettable nostalgic atmosphere and become the ultimate arcade tycoon!

A good and fun simulator!! A bit fast, like u reach max in almost everything in just a few hours, but overall very good! But please add so you can have atleast one more of every staff member and someone who can manage the deliveries/pickups. Thx!! :D
I think the game is pretty good so far just needs some updates here and there
Super awesome game, just VERY short at the moment. I unlocked everything in game after about 6.5 hours. It's a good price point, though - no regrets on the purchase. I look forward to see what else they may add! But after about 6-8 hours there's nothing left to do, really.

I like the game. I would love to see a stocker or an employee that we could tell what to do.. i am anxious to see the game grow but as it stands, for me, i don't think it is at the point where i would recommend it yet but it is a solid base.
Sympa... si on pouvait jouer correctement ! Le concept est sympa, ouvrir et gérer une salle de jeux vintage. Malheureusement, un bug important est présent: on ne peut pas rendre des billets de banques aux clients, uniquement de la petite monnaie... j'ai signalé ce bug, on m'a promis que la mise à jour suivante du jeu règlerait le problème. J'ai installé la mise à jour: rien du tout, les dev's font des belles promesses mais qui ne sont pas tenues. J'ai demandé - et obtenu - le remboursement de ce jeu.
This game has potential. With the right updates and such. Its definitely in early access and might take a while for full release. Its fun to pass the time but its not a simulator I can play for hours yet. I hope they take the time and listen to the players and add new things and make the game fun to were it gets to wanna play longer.
c'est jeu de simulation de gestion comme il en existe plein (simulateur de TCG, simulateur de vidéo club entre autre). Le jeu n'est pas désagréable mais en étant en accès anticipé, vous ferais vite le tour du jeu et il faudra attendre les prochaine MaJ pour voir ce que nous réserve les dev mais cela reste qu'il a de bonne base. Une chose a penser de mettre en place une meca de recyclage des borne car ils ont mis en place la mécanique d'usure de la borne mais une fois usé pas de solution de revente ou de révision de la borne.
maquinitas, maquinitas, maquinitas.
Pretty fun game, but there are a couple of things I wish it had at the moment. Wall dividers would be one thing. Also, additional employees. A stocker would be great and maybe another cashier.
love it super fun
