GAMES follows the development of video games from a historical as well as a technical point of view and invites you to play Asteroids and Space Invaders on arcade terminals, but also video games developed in Switzerland.

The exhibition is complemented by a number of in-depth discussions on topics such as the Swiss video game industry, addiction among young people and scenes of violence in certain games.
