The museum is located in the center of Moscow, which makes it accessible. It is a collection of old Soviet slot machines that were popular in the past. I learned many of them from my childhood, so it was nice to remember the gaming industry of those times. There was a cozy atmosphere inside the museum and all the machines were in good condition. It was quite fun to try my hand at games that were popular more than half a century ago. Although some of the games seemed quite simple and outdated, they were still captivating with their nostalgic atmosphere.

Gorgeous place, walked in and disappeared cleanly. A bunch of machines, its own atmosphere, as if you had returned to the past. There is still not enough ice cream and syrup from the machine, and in general it was great b) The employees are competent, they tell sooo much about the machines

We were in a big company with friends, and we had a lot of fun at Sniper. All the most popular slot machines in one distant town in distant years are here!! I'm still a champion at Sniper.
The room itself did not make much of an impression; the atmosphere was a little lacking. It's a pity that not all machines are in working condition.
But overall, in good company you can have a blast here.

A cool place with a nice and friendly atmosphere. You can walk around and check out all the games for free, but you have to pay in order to use the arcade machines. There´s a nice variety of different games, although shooting and submarine games make out the majority. Note that these are not your typical modern arcade games- the games are more of a novelty, and the entertainment value quickly wears off. However, seeing the games in action is still cool, and you get a feeling of how cutting edge the games must have been when they were first released.
In addition to solo player games, there are also multiplayer games here, including ice hockey and basketball games. There´s also a photobooth near the entrance for taking funny pictures in black and white.

The best museum I have ever been, you get the chance to play with old arcade games, and it is very cheap! The museum shop is also awesome, if I lived in Moscow I would be there everyday!

We were unable to find the museum with the building seeming to be under renovation, no signs to indicate where it had gone or when it would open again.

Located in a very beautiful location - the Expo Center - it is nice to walk to the museum.
Compared to gaming today this machines are ancient :)
but the fact that you see those kids playing, and not happy when they have to leave, it shows you that gaming was always fun! :)

Went with my teens. Be warned there was no air conditioning. The staff is very friendly. The place is well set up. And you can even buy Soviet memorabilia such as sneakers and even sodas from a Soviet machine. They give you coins with your ticket. NO reason to buy more...you certainly have enough. The games are remarkably bad in comparison to the video games at that time in the USA...many of them are challenging to use and there is of course the language barrier and some don't function well. There are instructions but for the most part didn't use them (as we didn't find them too helpful). But it's how bad the games are that makes the experience amazing...it's symbolic of the Soviet era and totally worth your time! Can learn more about cultural history here than in many other classic museums!

Подскажите работает ли сегодня музей на ул. Рождественка, д.12? На сайте была новость об открытии площадки 31 января и что она будет работать без выходных.
Однако по телефонам указанным на сайте, автоответчик говорит что понедельник - выходной.
Спасибо.

Здравствуйте!
Скажите, музей переехал с Кузнецкого моста на ВДНХ? Посещали вас весной и планируем повторить мероприятие.
Written January 3, 2020
Да, переехал. Теперь на ВДНХ в 57 павильоне. В понедельник, как и раньше, выходной. Но 6 января, хотя и понедельник, будет работать.

В музей обязательно нужно идти с кем-то?
Или автоматы на одного тоже есть?
Written September 20, 2018
Да, в музее достаточно автоматов на одного, и сотрудники ресепшн могут составить вам компанию, поиграть в несколько автоматов на двоих, просто спросите их)

Есть ли льгота для учащихся школ и ветеранов боевых действий? Во все игры можно поиграть бесплатно?
Written March 22, 2018
Здравствуйте, так как мы частный музей, льготы для учащихся и ветеранов не предусмотрены. Нужно будет приобрести билет за 450 рублей. Единственное, если Вы являетесь участником олимпиады "Музеи, парки, усадьбы Москвы", то по будням есть возможность приобрести билет за 350 рублей для участника.

Здравствуйте! Если детям 4 года, 7 и 14 лет, стоимость также 450 рублей?
Written September 22, 2017
Здравствуйте. Дети до 6 лет включительно проходят по билету взрослого, то есть на них отдельный билет приобретать не нужно. Дети от 7 лет проходят по такой же стоимости, как и взрослые.
