The Indie Game Website writes: “I didnt grow up experiencing video games in arcades so I dont come to 198Xs arcade epic with any particular fondness for that supposed golden age of gaming history. I dont relate to its story of Kid, a teenager stuck in suburbia just outside the city, self-actualizing through the experience of discovering an arcade and mastering its game cabinets through hours and hours of play in the year 198X.”
