Surprising bit of...

Hayley_W, Mar 2026
Surprising bit of accessibility-some of the displays had braille (Grade 2 UEB) notes with information about the displays on them. It's up some stairs, I don't think I saw an alternate route in. So many games and consoles you can play. I enjoyed being really bad at Sonic the Hedgehog. Allow 1 hour minimum-if you're a gamer, you might want to leave an afternoon free for it.

Great fun blast from the past

It was very good to remember all those old consoles. The exposition is well organised and the idea behind is amazing. Although, my kids under 12 years old didn’t appreciate it that much because they are used to the new technology. Thank you for the experience!

Legend!

Amazing place. Really informative to read through the history of Atari and the good old days, and see so many console not only on display but up and running. It evoked great memories from when I was a kid. Thumbs up for who had the idea and set this up!
