Our take on Mike's Arcade
The cabinet presentation and broad list of activities may suggest a larger arcade environment, but the product is presented through eight separate game concepts. The store page gives each concept a short description rather than outlining deeper progression or connections between them.
What is Mike's Arcade?
Mike's Arcade bundles eight three-dimensional titles that draw on old-school arcade games and appear in virtual cabinet settings.
Players can fire at space creatures, asteroids, UFOs, and other enemies; find their way through mazes; recolor floor tiles while steering clear of predators; race along tracks modeled after roller coasters; bounce a ball to break bricks; link matching-colored balls to remove them from a board; arrange falling, rotating pieces into full lines; and leap between platforms. Each title provides online save storage, achievement tracking, and its own leaderboard. Play is supported with a gamepad, mouse or touch input, and a keyboard.
