Bugis has a free 80s-style arcade, claw machine, pink disco bus and more

Get your game face on as you enter the neon-lit Super Arcade. Lining its purple and pink walls are free-to-play retro arcade games – pixels and all – loaded with Street Fighter, Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Donkey Kong. Challenge a friend to snag the top spot on the scoreboard. Need a break? Give your thumbs and fingers a quick reset at the space’s cosy corners including a pink plush sofa to sink into. Along with throwback decor including a concave mirror for that fish-eye effect, it also makes for a cool photo opportunity to strike a pose.

August 24 to September 8 at Bugis Junction, #01-63

The Super Arcade also amps up the fun factor with a claw machine, where you can stand a chance to win attractive prizes including grand prizes: a Nintendo Switch OLED from Gamemartz or a stainless steel analogue watch from Guess Accessories. There are also exclusive offers from brands such as Pop Mart, Kiehl’s, Skechers, and Laneige. All you have to do is spend a minimum of $50* in a single receipt at selected fashion and beauty stores in Bugis Junction or Bugis+. This grants you 5X STAR$ and up to three tries at the claw machine – good luck!
