My boys love it as they can play old video games for hours! Not cheap & need to offer annual pass. Clearly run on tight budget. Needs a modern museum curator to make it an experience and education .
Great selection of retro computers and game consoles .
A fascinating and hands-on display of the computers and game consoles that changed our lives. Educational, informative and fun for children and adults alike! A must visit when in Cambridge.
Try and get yourself invited upstairs - a mix of a junkyard and a treasure trove!
Much bigger than it looks when you first go in.So much awesome old computer equipment and always improving.
Experience 80s computers through the medium of video games . Genius.

It's in town and free. Great place to learn about rocks n dinosaurs. Bring the kids. Just across the street from the zoology museum. - P C
Lots of prehistoric mammal specimens. I think there's a stuffed Okapi (cousin of a Giraffe which most won't get to see cos they are so rare). Great place to bring the kids. Right in town. - P C
While not as extensive as the bigger museums, the old-fashioned approach to displays and storytelling here feels unusual and interesting. Great for a quick visit (under an hour) for kids and adults. - Marie S.
