Videogame Museum - Illuminate

Visually striking and accessible for all ages, a range of bespoke videogames will be arriving at The National Videogame Museum this December. An immersive version of a retro classic, alongside unique LED games are sure to light up the festive season!

Virtual Reality will make its Museum debut with an old retro favourite. Presented as a complete sensory experience, dive into the hypnotic world of Tetris Effect as the famous blocks will transport you to a virtual place of unique music, sounds and special effects. A multiplayer version will also be available in large screen format, where friends and family can battle it out for the high score.

Visitors can be enchanted by a radiant collection of new LED gaming experiences designed by indie developers too. Experience the innovative “Line Wobbler” by Robin Baumgarten, an award winning experiment in minimalism game design. Utilising a spring input mechanic, players control light and navigate through a five metre long LED strip display.

Other bespoke experiences include, “Glow Golf” by Alex Johansson and “Tap o’ War” by the NVM’s own team. Vibrant, accessible and ideal for all the family Glow Golf mimics teeing off on a bright green display, while Tap o’ War pits you against friends in a button bashing battle.

This festive fusion of classic gaming and modern technology will create an unforgettable experience that will light up young minds and spark joy in players of all ages.
