Continue Arcades has announced the opening of a second location in East Street, Taunton. Expanding its ‘free play’ gaming experience to the Somerset town. Following the success of its Plymouth flagship, the new location similarly offers a blend of classic and contemporary gaming, aiming to provide an entertainment venue for all ages.

The new location features a comprehensive selection of arcade machines, including retro titles such as Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and Street Fighter IV, alongside modern games and pinball machines. The arcade’s business model allows patrons to pay a single entry fee, £13 for adults (16+), £10 for children aged 4-15, and free entry for children under 4, granting unlimited access to all games. This structure is designed to encourage extended play and a relaxed gaming environment.

Austin Wood, the founder of Continue Arcades, established the venture with a focus on community and accessible entertainment. Wood’s vision, inspired by his time in the United States, aimed to revitalize unused spaces and create a gaming experience that prioritizes value over traditional coin-operated arcades.

“Continue Arcades is about bringing people together through gaming,” Wood stated. “We wanted to create a space where everyone, regardless of age or gaming experience, can enjoy themselves without the constant need for coins.”

The arcade also offers a selection of beverages, including soft drinks, premixed cocktails, beers, ciders, and IPAs. Unlimited warm popcorn is available for a small additional charge. The venue is designed to be family-friendly, catering to groups and individual gamers alike.

Opening on April 4th, operating hours will be Sunday to Thursday from 11:30 am to 9:00 pm, Friday from 11:30 am to 11:00 pm, and Saturday from 10:00 am to 11:00 pm.

Continue Arcades aims to create a community hub where both nostalgic and modern gaming experiences are accessible. The focus is on providing a welcoming environment for all visitors.

My journey through life has been a colorful one, driven by my love for creativity, music, and the wonders of the great outdoors. As a dedicated student, I've already earned a degree in Classic Cantos, a testament to my appreciation for the timeless beauty of classical music. Beyond the classroom, my artistic spirit thrives through my love for painting and drawing. These creative outlets allow me to express my thoughts and emotions, transforming blank canvases into vibrant stories. My interests go far beyond music and art. Singing, playing the piano, and exploring new melodies are integral parts of my life, providing me with both solace and exhilaration. When I'm not immersed in the world of art and music, I find solace in nature's embrace. My heart is drawn to animals and the serene beauty of the natural world, fueling my desire to protect and preserve our precious environment.
