On Monday, It’s Game Over For Warrington Retro Arcade

WARRINGTON, PA — After one final weekend, it will be game over for the Game Is Afoot Arcade at Warrington Crossing Plaza.

“We are open Friday through Monday. We close for good at the end of Monday, August 31 - one last chance to play your favorite game and say goodbye,” the owners posted on Facebook.

The arcade announced earlier this summer that they would be closing their doors after 11 years of gaming fun.

“It is with a very heavy heart that I need to announce that after 11 years, The Game Is Afoot Arcade will be closing. Our last day will be Monday, August 31,” they posted on social media.

“This decision was not made lightly. Some of the major reasons include the increased costs of everything from overhead to repairs, as well as the fluctuations in our customer attendance responding to their own uncertain financial futures in this economy,” they wrote.

“Unfortunately, The Game Is Afoot Arcade has reached its final level,” they wrote.

Gift cards, multi passes, and loyalty cards will be honored right up to our last day. Please come in and create more memories at The Game is Afoot Arcade this weekend.”

The arcade will be selling its games, artwork, furnishings, and spare parts. The arcade’s game list and offer form is available at: TheGameisAfootArcade.com/PurchaseOfferForm
