Move, think, jump or die is the motto Pixel must live by if he wants to unlock the next console on his historic journey.Enter into a living, playable museum of video game history: A museum that spans across three decades, featuring 19 historically inspired consoles and over 100 levels to conquer. A museum of sharp things, meanies and free falls - in which you will die. A lot. And the fun’s just getting started.
Whether you’re nostalgic for these classic consoles or it’s your first time experiencing them, now it’s your turn to make gaming history!
