Rome's newest attraction: GAMM, the Game Museum! Now open to the public in Piazza della Repubblica, this expansive museum is the creation of Marco Accordi Rickards, a writer, journalist, professor, and CEO of Vigamus.
Rickards, a passionate advocate for video game preservation, describes GAMM as a captivating journey through gaming history, technology, and interactive gameplay. GAMM builds upon the legacy of Vigamus, another successful Rome-based gaming museum that has welcomed over two million visitors since 2012.
Spread across 700 square meters on two floors, GAMM is divided into three distinct thematic zones. Before exploring the details, take a quick look at the museum!
