Rome's newest attraction: GAMM, the city's largest video game museum, is now open! Located in Piazza della Repubblica, this impressive museum is the creation of Marco Accordi Rickards, a writer, journalist, professor, and CEO of Vigamus.

Rickards, a fervent advocate for preserving video game history, describes GAMM as an immersive journey blending historical context, technological innovation, and interactive gameplay. The museum builds upon the success of Vigamus, another Roman gaming museum that has attracted over two million visitors since its 2012 opening.

GAMM boasts 700 square meters of exhibition space across two floors, organized into three captivating thematic zones. Take a sneak peek below!
