Computer games are a significant part of our culture that is increasingly determined by digital technologies. The Computer Games Museum (Computerspielemuseum) actively advocates familiarising a broad audience with the culture and history of digital games using exhibitions, educational offerings, events, and publications. Its aim is to deepen the understanding of digital interactive entertainment media and thus increase the media literacy. The Computer Games Museum Berlin exhibits three arcade machines that represent the public gaming in pubs, entertainment parks, or dedicated arcades. There were even bottle holders or ash trays on some arcade machines. Sometimes, the machines had to be emptied daily in order not to jam up due to having too many coins in the mechanism. The exhibited arcade machines at the VCFB 2026 are to be used without cash. You are not only allowed, but in fact invited to start playing right now. Please refrain from inserting coins!
