Retro Arcade Shop Simulator

Retro Arcade Shop Simulator is a business management game about building and running a retro arcade. You start with a dusty venue, buy machines and attractions, arrange the floor plan to guide customer flow, and grow the business into a multi-room entertainment center. You can shape it as a cozy 80s hangout or a larger gaming venue.

Expand your arcade

Unlock up to 10 rooms and fill them with 28 types of entertainment. These include classic arcade cabinets, Galaxy Pinball, Gift Claw games, Air Hockey and Whack-A-Mole, as well as Plane Simulators, Cinema 8D, Bowling Alleys, Go-Karts and Racing Simulators.

Manage the business

You manage an economy with four token types, track hourly income and can take out bank loans to fund expansion. Hire cashiers, cafeteria workers, token collectors, repairmen and cleaners as the crowds grow. You can also run the cafeteria, serving burgers and drinks and selling gaming magazines, CDs, video games and comics.

Customize and maintain

Decorate your arcade with 26 wall textures, 17 floor types, graffiti murals, posters, neon lighting and signs, and decorative plants. Machines wear down with use, so you service and repair them, mop the floors and empty token boxes to keep the venue running. You can handle the work yourself early on, then hire repairmen and cleaners as the business grows.
