Great museum section as well as open play consoles section. TVs seem to be matched to the era of the consoles they are plugged into. Large selection of games to play and some arcade machines too. Pass is all day so extremely great value for money. Staff were absolutely amazing, very passionate and enthusiastic! Would recommend to anyone.

Was awesome. If you have any love for retro video games and their history, or even just video games in general this is definitely worth a few hours of your life. We just spent 2 1/4 hours there and if it wasn’t for having to catch a flight home could have spent plenty more time. My 12 year old was genuinely gutted we had to leave. The guy working there was incredibly friendly and helpful as well. Overall a fantastic experience.

A great time for all ages, an impressive variety of consoles and games to play. The museum section is very cool, it's fun to point out your first consoles and see how far the technology has come.

Unplanned most favorite stop while I’m Perth! We visited Perth during the summer and knew it would be hot but we didn’t plan enough balance of inside and outside activities so on day 1 the kids were dying from the heat so we tried to find a good museum to take them to and this popped up. It took a little convincing to get them to agree to go but once we arrived it was all up hill from there! What a cool little place! We didn’t make a reservation and were lucky when we arrived that a school holiday event/booking was just leaving. The place isn’t very big but it’s jam packed with all the old video games from our great childhood and old TV’s to go with it!! It was such a trip back in time that we didn’t know how to begin and then didn’t know how to end! One amazingly great addition to this great great place is that your entry fee (very cheap) allows you to play all the games for the full day!!! You can come & go all day which is unheard of! So if you really want to try and break that old Atari record you can start your challenge in the morning break for lunch & let your fingers rest then come back again to finish off the day! They even have a snack bar (chips & drinks & candy bars) if you don’t want to leave. You will be very surprised as the condition of the games too…you can see some wear but really they are in good condition. Also, if you don’t see a game you are looking for just ask the owner and most likely he has it hidden away. And speaking of owner…if I could give a rating he would be a 10! Super friendly, super happy and amazing shop! We are only visiting but we saw the signage for byob trivia nights, birthday parties and other events that make this not only a great tourist destination but a great regular place to visit if you live in Perth. I’m not into video games at all but highly recommend you to go there and support this great little hidden gem. Your inner kid will thank you for it.

Excellent if you're of a certain age .... I was hoping to re-live my youth & play Space Invaders or Galaxian but they weren't here. Some interesting retro games & consoles to bring back your childhood memories. 👍
