Museum of Soviet Arcade Machines

The Museum of Soviet Arcade Machines is a private collection of arcades manufactured in the Soviet Union throughout the 1970s and 1980s. It first debuted in 2007 with just a few ancient arcades, most of which didn't even operate. The museum now houses 80 arcades, many of which are in excellent shape! Even if you didn't grow up in the Soviet Union, you can't help but have a "Back to the Future" sensation and a childlike desire to challenge your pals to a game of Battleship or Fussball. Instead of a ticket, each visitor receives a bag of 15 "kopeyka" Soviet pennies - the same coins that were used to play on these machines in the Soviet Union in the 1970s.

You'll also utilize them as toucans to play on the arcade machines. The most valuable item in the collection is the ancient Battleship arcade, but there are many more, including table basketball, sniper and auto rally arcades, and even a fairy-tale-inspired "Repka": a replica of a big turnip that must be plucked out of the ground. You can visit the museum before deciding which game appeals to you the most. At the entry, the museum employees provide you with a leaflet with a brief description of all the games.
