Been thoroughly enjoying @HG101's “Arcade Cult Classics”❗

The coverage is fantastic. Blown away by how many of these I haven’t got around to playing.

The backlog grows 🎮

Back in... 1980s ... A sort of vertical pacman game with exotic backgrounds drew me towards its cabinet on occasional visits to the arcades. Its gameplay was so compelling it would end up being one of the few ZX Spectrum conversions I'd keep playing when other ZX games were too hard, no fun or plain rubbish. Now the 80s magic is back thanks to Tea Monster Games with a demo now & full release soon of 'Jack Dragon and The Stone Of Peace'.🤩

My video walkthru of Peter Hirschberg's Luna City Arcade (which he assembled in a barn in his backyard in northern Virginia), from back in 2009.

What’s your earliest video game memory?

I remember my grand parents taking me to the #arcades and playing Phoenix without a token 🤣 I must have been 4 or 5…
