A POPULAR retro video game arcade with 12 locations across the UK is giving out vouchers to play for free over the summer.
NQ64 has locations in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Newcastle and Nottingham.
The neon-splatteredvenues are the perfect spot for an evening or night of fun and .
Having been to a number of retro arcades, this one is the best I’ve visited in the UK.
You can even get some fancy as you play.
But the highlight is all the retro arcade machines available to gamers.
This includes Street Fighter, , Space Invaders, Crazy Taxi and many more, as well as pinball machines.
Machines at NQ64 venues operate with tokens you buy, each costing 1-2 tokens per person per play.
At the moment, the company is giving away free vouchers to exchange for tokens.
You can get 20 tokens, which usually cost £10 (or £12 in London).
And even when you’ve finished your tokens there are retro consoles too such asPS2 and Xbox that you can play for free without any tokens.
All you have to do is complete a quick four minute survey here meant for students and a voucher will be sent to you within 24 hours, NQ64 says.
NQ64 sites are for over 18s only but they do run a special monthly day where kids are allowed in.
Under 18s can enter on the final Sunday of every month between 11am and 3pm, as long as they’re accompanied by an adult.
So the next dates will August 31 and September 28.
