AN immersive retro video game experience is back in High Wycombe.
History of Video Games on Tour has returned to Eden Shopping Centre, its first time back in town since a sell-out event in 2019.
The event opens today (February 18) and each day throughout half term until Feb 27 (then back to weekend opening hours, according to its website).
Video game lovers who get tickets will enjoy arcade classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II, through to iconic mascots such as Sonic the Hedgehog, and Super Mario, and the latest Stars, Marvel and Pokémon games.
Ticketed sessions last three hours, during which time all games are free.
Gamers will enjoy more than 100 available games including arcades, consoles, and handheld, and get a wristband so they can leave and come back.
Tickets must be pre-booked.
Local Andrew Rumney was really pleased the event was back: "History of Video Games On Tour at the Eden Shopping Centre in High Wycombe will be a great experience for any video game and arcade machine fans alike as you will be able to play on a variety of machines for £12. This experience will also show the younger guests how arcade machines used to look in the good old days. There is also a selection of old computers and games consoles on display as well."
