I don't typically enjoy games that take a "gamer" aesthetic; they tend to be ham-fisted in delivery and chock to the gills with cringey memes. Arcade Spirits doesn't always avoid that trap, but it still happens to have some compelling writing and endearing characters. I do feel the writing at times is a bit uneven, especially as the game moves to its latter half and forces your hand in conversations in a way that you may not have wanted. And the overarching "conspiracy" doesn't really intrigue me and takes focus away from the interesting bit of the story--namely you helping run an arcade with a cast of colorful characters.

Still, even with the weird oddities, it's a pretty decent title.
