About
Where will your choices lead you?
On Eastgate Street, in a completely dark shipping container, immerse yourself in a choose-your-own-adventure experience like no other. This isn’t any ordinary arcade and these are not ordinary arcade machines. Step into a world inspired by 1980s video games, with 360-degree sound and sensory effects.
You will be assigned an arcade machine and embark on a unique journey. In a war, which side will you choose? Will you seek out peace? Will you join a cult promising a better version of reality? Will you win or lose?
Brought to you by the “terrifyingly brilliant” (Time Out) Darkfield, world-leaders in immersive experiences, Arcade’s interactive story will ask you powerful questions about free will and consciousness, and no-one will experience the story in the same way.
Are you ready to make a choice?
“★★★★ You will be buzzing afterwards.” — Time Out (on Darkfield's 'Flight')
“★★★★ It gets under your skin.” — The Guardian (on Darkfield's 'Double')
