Arcade Paradise
Description
Welcome to Arcade Paradise, the 90’s-fuelled retro arcade adventure. You play as Ashley, and you’ve just been given the keys to the family laundromat. Rather than washing rags for a living, you decide to turn the laundromat into the ultimate arcade. Choose from over 35 games to be in the arcade inspired by three decades of gaming – all of which are playable with high scores to set. Stay one step ahead of your father, manage and invest profits, and build your very own Arcade Paradise!
Rags to riches… literally!
Take the laundromat business made up of dull chores from washing clothes to throwing out the trash, and turn it into a booming arcade with the coolest games in town raking in all the money!
Insert Coin
Over 35 arcade games, each fully realized with its own gameplay, stories, missions and high scores to set! Inspired by 3 decades of gaming, from early vector games right up to the 32-bit era.
Here comes a new challenger
Insert a second coin and play against a friend in a number of co-operative & competitive arcade games up to 4 players locally.
Set the high scores
Prove yourself across each game, set your initials, make your favourite arcade game more popular and upload to the online leaderboards.
Soundtrack worthy of the cassette collection
From the individual games to choosing what song to put on the jukebox inspired by some of the great records of the early 90s, the soundtrack captures the heart of a bygone era.
The greatest gaming era ever
Hello 90’s. If you could smell this game, it would smell like memories. Everything from the look and feel of the arcades, to using the latest PC connected to the mind-blowing dial-up connection, all have been recreated with pure love.
Gerald in the Riviera
Doug Cockle (famous for his voice acting in Victor Vran and The Witcher series) plays the role of Ashley’s berating father. Being too busy in the Riviera to see King Wash for himself, you will receive many phone calls from Gerald sharing his wise words of advice and constant reminders to fix the toilet.

What a thing. Arcade Paradise made me think of Outrun and GTA and Mr Driller, and also my own working life in my teens as a dishwasher and a double-glazing salesperson, sure. But it also made me think of those mazes tiled on the walls of Warren Street tube. Warren Street! Get it? Little puzzles made to be solved between trains, but tricky enough to encourage you to miss your train in the first place. Then you solve the maze and you're off into a wider maze of the underground network. And maybe, who knows, there's a maze beyond that too.

8/10
A clever management sim that pays homage to both the arcades of the 1990s and the exquisite drudgery of teenage jobs.

9/10
Arcade Paradise not only looks cool, but the running of your business is fun and enjoyable, and the arcade games are wonderfully designed.

Interestig concept, way too repetitive
Game stimulates you to make investments on your place, getting more games in. But to access those you must be looping with constant repetitive activities dealing with the laundry shop.

Not bad, A little repeatitive in parts.
I like the game and its concept, I wish there was more time to play the games, but keeping up with everything means neglecting that part of the job.

Good game.
I like it but the only bad thing is, the game becomes a bit of a chore after a while and gets really repetitive.
