GAMM Is the Biggest Game Museum in Italy Where You Can Share Pieces of Game History

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 an immersive journey blending history, technology, and interactive gameplay. Built upon the legacy of Vigamus, a previous Roman gaming museum boasting over two million visitors since 2012, GAMM occupies 700 square meters across two floors.

The museum is divided into three captivating sections:
