Aug 11, 2022Arcade Paradise is a casual but satisfying management sim soaked in good feeling and ‘90s vibes, but it’s also a story about finding success in what you love in life. Though there are some missed opportunities and the customisation options are limited, the quality of the roster of playable arcade cabinets, the attention to detail, and the striking audiovisual presentation all go to make this one game worth cleaning up your act for.

Aug 28, 2022I had forgotten that feeling of joy mixed with curiosity related to the unexpected arrival of a new cabinet in the arcade. Arcade Paradise made me relive this. I really liked a lot of the video games, while others, despite being quite good, simply weren't my cup of tea. But if you love retro/hyper-casual genre you will surely find at least a dozen of games that you will want to keep on playing, no matter if you already completed their quests. The managerial section, despite being an original part of the game, is the least developed feature; this is a video game for players who love more action and less thinking.

Aug 11, 2022Arcade Paradise is practically a matryoshka, because inside a superstructure of managerial inspiration it puts many different experiences, both on the playful and purely artistic front. He does it in a convincing way, also thanks to his ability to know how to wink at long-time players and the many small tributes to the 90s. The problem, however, is that this superstructure becomes almost negligible after a few hours, because it lacks significant novelties and interesting variables. In any case, if you are nostalgic for arcades and want to spend time in a laundry full of virtual worlds, give Arcade Paradise a peaceful chance.

Aug 29, 2022Arcade Paradise is a fantastic management sim for those who love the genre. It may be asking a lot of players to prioritize other people’s laundry over games upfront, but the payoff is a literal heaven for those who have always wished to build their own arcade and play every game within it for free. If you enjoy a good management sim and love the idea of hopping from game to game to game as a major mechanic, Arcade Paradise is worth its weight in quarters.

Aug 11, 2022I feel like the managerial side of Arcade Paradise needs to better inform the part where you just play games endlessly and vice versa. In the beginning, having to pull yourself away from your high score to move someone’s laundry into the dryer is a fun twist, but there’s nothing similar to that in the end game. You’re just playing games, waiting for the quarters to pile up so you can buy the next upgrade. Even if Arcade Paradise instead tried to present an authentic representation of the arcade experience, I feel that would have added more value. Instead, it sits in an uncomfortable middle ground like a directionless teenager.
