Title: ArcadeCraft
Post by: sin2beta on March 04, 2013, 09:17:08 pm

Anyone play the game arcadecraft? I heard about it on JurassicJunkie's Friday Night Rant on Youtube... decided to check it out... and it is strangely addicting to me. I've at least gotten my 2.99 value.

It is basically lemonade stand but with an arcade.

I saw the game in the Xbox Live Indie Marketplace, and thought it looked slightly interesting.  Reminds me of Game Room, except that it actually costs Microsoft Points and doesn't have any achievements.  :P

I just "completed" it last night. By complete, I mean reached the point where no new arcades are coming out. After completing it, I'd have a tough time recommending it. It is like simcity or all of those games. It captures my attention for a couple of hours, I get addicted, but then in retrospect, it's not THAT great.

If you like management sims though, for 3 bucks it's not too bad. Although Gameroom might be a better alternative. Have not checked that out.

Game Room is free, however it costs Microsoft Points to place cabinets in your arcade, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.  I got an easy 100 Gamerscore for "decorating" my arcade, however.  :P

Thanks for the info! I'm actually excited about this. I was actually thinking about booting this game up again yesterday.
